What began as whispers behind the scenes has now erupted into a full-blown Dancing With The Stars civil war — and the ballroom may never be the same again.
According to explosive reports, Carrie Ann Inaba has gone head-to-head with pro dancer Pasha Pashkov after his bombshell claim that she’s been “rigging scores and playing favorites.” The accusation — made during a tense post-show meeting — sent shockwaves through the cast and crew, leaving producers scrambling to contain the fallout.
Furious and deeply humiliated, Carrie Ann has now hit back publicly, calling Pasha’s words “a desperate lie from a man who can’t handle the truth.” Sources close to the longtime judge say she’s “not backing down” and has privately vowed to “expose every dancer who’s turned against her.”
But the drama doesn’t stop there. Behind the glitter and choreography, multiple pros are reportedly uniting against Carrie Ann, forming what insiders describe as a “silent rebellion.” One production source revealed, “It’s radioactive backstage — walk-offs, shouting matches, even tears. The tension is unbearable.”
Producers are said to be in panic mode, fearing the chaos could derail the remainder of the season. Meetings have reportedly been held late into the night, with executives debating whether to intervene or let the situation play out for ratings.
“This isn’t a dance show anymore,” one insider confided. “It’s an all-out power struggle — egos, betrayal, and revenge tearing the ballroom apart from the inside.”
Fans have noticed the shift too. Social media has exploded with theories, alliances, and fan wars — some defending Carrie Ann as a passionate perfectionist, others calling for her removal amid what they describe as “years of favoritism and harsh critiques.”
As the next live show looms, the question everyone’s asking is: can DWTS survive this meltdown, or will this be the season that ends it all?
