Bobby Bones returned his DWTS trophy after Tom Bergeron's controversial comment called his win "shocking," prompting backlash and an apology.
Bobby Bones returned his 2018 Dancing with the Stars Mirrorball Trophy after former host Tom Bergeron called his win the most shocking in the show’s history, saying it surprised him.
Bones said Bergeron’s comment, made without context, was hurtful, especially coming from someone he respected.
He explained he initially had no interest in the show, joined for a promotional effort, and gave his all despite criticism over his dancing skill and private training.
The backlash, including from Bergeron and current host Julianne Hough, led Bones to feel unwelcome and uncelebrated.
Bergeron later apologized on Instagram, clarifying his remark was not meant to diminish Bones’ achievement and expressing regret for reopening old wounds.
The incident reignited debate over the show’s voting system and the impact of celebrity influence on competition outcomes.
