Nadia Bartel was the first contestant eliminated from Australia’s 2024 season of Dancing With the Stars. After she and professional partner Lyu Masuda scored 15 points for their tango, they faced Ben Cousins and Siobhan Power in a dance-off. The judges chose to eliminate Bartel and Masuda.
How Nadia Bartel’s elimination happened
The bottom two were determined after the performances and studio audience voting. Bartel and Masuda then danced again against Cousins and Power: PerthNow reports that Cousins and Power performed a salsa, while Bartel and Masuda performed a waltz. The judges’ decision after that dance-off sent Bartel home. PerthNow’s 21 July 2024 recap describes the elimination.
What the 15-point tango score means
The 15 points were for Bartel and Masuda’s tango before the dance-off; that score alone was not the elimination decision. Chattr’s retrospective account reports that the pair scored 17 in their first episode and 15 in their second, for 32 points across those two rounds. Chattr’s 13 August 2024 recap gives those episode scores.
What Bartel said after leaving
In comments reported by Mamamia, Bartel said she had been looking forward to learning to dance and was disappointed, but was focusing on the positives. She also described balancing the show with her children and business as difficult, while saying she was glad she took part. Bartel added that she continued dancing and practicing some steps at home. Mamamia’s 21 July 2024 report includes her reflections.
