After NFL player Danny Amendola and pro dancer Witney Carson performed together, Gene said, “This is a brand new experience for me and it’s difficult to look at you and to figure out which one is more hot, hot, hot… Danny, I’m telling you, you’re right next to somebody, one of the more beautiful women on the planet.”
After actress Chandler Kinney performed with pro partner Brandon Armstrong, Gene said, “Chandler, you’ve fogged up my glasses. I don’t know what to tell you. You move me, not just with your gyrations and so on, but your beautiful face and how you were into the emotion of it.”
Days after the show, Gene responded to the backlash.
“I stand by every word I said,” he told Daily Mail. “I had a great time. The contestants were great. The show was great. Watch the show. It was a lot of fun.”
“Everybody’s got something to say,” he added. “Watch the show. It was a lot of fun. Everybody had a great time.”
