Dwight Howard, the eight-time NBA All-Star, has become a popular topic of discussion on social media after his recent appearance on Dancing With the Stars (DWTS). His latest performance on October 7, 2024, led to many jokes and funny memes online, especially because of his hilarious look and humorous expressions that made audiences laugh.
This episode marked the return of Dancing With the Stars after a week off for the Vice Presidential debate. All contestants were safe from elimination, which allowed Howard and his partner, Daniella Karagach, to focus on their dances without the fear of going home. The theme for the night was “Soul Train,” and Howard performed a cha-cha to “Let’s Groove” by Earth, Wind & Fire.
But, he only received a score of 23 out of 40, placing them near the bottom of the leaderboard. This score was much lower than those of competitors like rugby player Ilona Maher, gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik, and former NFL player Danny Amendola, who all scored 30 points.
However, the main topic of discussion among fans hasn’t been Dwight Howard’s performance; rather, it’s been his looks. When ClutchPoints shared a hilarious photo of him with the caption, “Who is this? Wrong answers only,” fans quickly jumped in with their witty responses, with one comment reading, “Dwight Howard in his NATURAL Form“
Another fan jokingly said, “Dwight Diddy“
Another fan simply commented, “Cmon,” accompanied by a funny gif.
Another fan said, “Puff Howard“
One more fan added, “If you get rid of that beard it identical to Dora“
One fan said, “That’s Tyler in Igor era“
Another fan wrote, “Jimmy Butler“

Judges Criticize Dwight Howard’s Dance Performance While Fans Rally Behind Him
The judges’ comments about Howard’s performance were quite harsh. Carrie Ann Inaba received boos from the audience after saying that Howard’s performance was “hard to watch.” She told him to tone down his expressions while still enjoying his dancing. Other judges agreed with her but didn’t get the same strong reactions from the audience. Guest judge Rosie Perez praised Howard’s passion but said he needed to improve his technique.
Despite the low scores, Howard’s fans showed their support on social media. Many expressed frustration with the judges’ scores, especially criticizing Carrie Ann for being inconsistent. Some fans jokingly suggested that Karagach was ready to confront judge Derek Hough after he gave Howard a low score of 5.
Looking ahead, everyone is excited to see how Howard will perform in the next episode, which will have a “Hair Metal music” theme. He is set to perform a Paso Doble to “Walk This Way” by Aerosmith. Many believe this routine could highlight his strengths and help him move up on the leaderboard. This theme could give Howard the chance to show off his dancing skills and impress the judges.
