From one underdog to another, Bobby Bones is rooting for Harry Jowsey and Rylee Arnold to take home the Dancing With the Stars trophy.
Bones, who is 43 years old, posted a heartwarming video on Sunday, November 19, expressing his support for Jowsey, 26, and Arnold, 18, according to Page Six. In the video, Bones tells them, "I have been closely observing and following you both. I have been cheering you on." He also mentions that they have faced criticism online, and says, "Welcome to the club, my friend. People will hate us because they are not us."
Bones then acknowledges that Jowsey has never danced before, saying, "I have never received any formal dance training. No offense, but it seems like you haven't either." However, he encourages them to continue their hard work, stating, "Keep up the good work. Your starting point doesn't matter; what matters is where you end up."
Some DWTS fans may oppose Harry, but others watching from home will be able to empathize with him. "I'm rooting for you, my friend. Best of luck!" Bones expressed. Jowsey and Arnold adored the heartfelt nature of Bones' message, referring to it as "sweet." Jowsey added, "Hopefully, we emerge victorious and the rules are modified once more. Appreciation to Bobby Bones!"
Bones participated in season 27 of DWTS in 2018 as a contestant partnered with professional dancer Sharna Burgess. Despite not consistently receiving the highest scores from the judges, Bones emerged victorious by virtue of the fans' votes, which contributed to half of his final score.
Following his win, the judges made a notable shift in their scoring criteria, placing a greater emphasis on technical dance skills rather than favoring routines that appealed to the fans.
“We have made several changes to the judging process in response to multiple complaints,” stated Carrie Ann Inaba in a September 2019 interview with Entertainment Tonight. “We took into consideration everyone's feedback regarding the events of last year.”

They also decided that moving forward, the first week of the show would not eliminate anyone.
Jowsey and Arnold, despite consistently ranking at the bottom of the leaderboard for the past four weeks, have managed to stay in the competition thanks to the overwhelming support of their fans.
Ever since the show began in September, fans have been captivated by the undeniable chemistry between Jowsey and Arnold, leading to rampant speculation about their romantic involvement.
Jowsey expressed in October that Arnold is consistently enthusiastic and lifts his spirits when he's feeling down or consumed with thoughts. Additionally, Arnold has a knack for recognizing when to have a serious conversation and help him overcome any challenges he may be facing. Jowsey emphasized that having someone like Arnold in one's life is essential and described her as the epitome of an ideal person.
In return, Arnold commended Jowsey for his remarkable kindness, highlighting him as the nicest person one could ever encounter.
Jowsey was asked by Us earlier this month to clarify their relationship. In an exclusive interview, he stated, "It's unfair to discuss dating when Rylee is experiencing her first season. Our focus should be on choreography and our dancing, not whether we are a couple or not. This is a dancing show, not a dating show."
