Kris Jenner Shocks DWTS Fans with Surprise Appearance by Alec Baldwin's Side

Dancing With The Stars fans were left stunned when they spotted none other than Kris Jenner in the audience during Tuesday night's episode

SHOCKING CELEBRITY SIGHTINGS AND DWTS DRAMA: KRIS JENNER SHINES IN THE AUDIENCE WHILE HILARIA BALDWIN MAKES IT TO THE NEXT ROUND

In a jaw-dropping turn of events, Dancing With The Stars fans were left stunned when they spotted none other than Kris Jenner, the infamous "momager," sitting pretty in the audience during Tuesday night's episode. The 69-year-old matriarch was seen sipping champagne and cheering on her BFF Hilaria Baldwin alongside Alec Baldwin, who just so happens to be married to the aforementioned DWTS contestant.

Kris looked absolutely stunning in all-black, flaunting a fresh $100,000 facelift that's got everyone talking. But what really had tongues wagging was her association with the Baldwin family. Sources close to the situation reveal that Kris has been secretly rooting for Hilaria since the beginning of the season and has even been "liking" her recent DWTS content.

The famous 'momager,' 69, had a VIP seat next to Alec Baldwin, whose wife Hilaria is competing on season 34 with pro dancer, Glen Savchenko, as her partner

As the camera panned across the audience, a banner appeared on screen reading: "Hilaria's Family & Friends." Little did viewers know that this was more than just a friendly gathering – it was a full-blown celebrity squad. Fans took to social media to express their shock and confusion over Kris' cameo, with one viewer asking: "Why is Kris Jenner sitting next to Alec Baldwin?" Another commenter chimed in: "Kris Jenner??? Mama what are you doing there?"

But the real drama unfolded when Alec asked Kris for her honest opinion on Hilaria's performance. "She's getting a 10 from me!" Kris gushed. "All the time. Any woman who can be doing this having had seven kids is an ace in my book." Alec chimed in, "Go Hilaria!"

While some fans were still reeling from Kris' appearance, others couldn't help but wonder: what's the deal with Kris and Hilaria's friendship? Insiders claim that Kendall Jenner, Kris' 29-year-old daughter, has been BFFs with Alec's niece Hailey Bieber since childhood. The Kardashian-Jenner family and Baldwin clan have always had a close bond, so it's no surprise that Kris was in attendance to support her friend.

Hilaria and Savchenko performed a Samba, which earned a score of 22 out of 30 from the judges.

But amidst all the celebrity drama, one thing was certain: Hilaria Baldwin made it to the next round of DWTS despite receiving a score of 22 out of 30 from the judges. Her partner Glen Savchenko praised her for being "in a league of your own," but Carrie Ann Inaba wasn't entirely convinced, citing that Hilaria's musicality was off.

Meanwhile, Fifth Harmony alum Lauren Jauregui's elimination had fans gasping in shock. With a score of 18 from the judges, Lauren became the latest victim of the show's voting system. "Who keeps voting for Hilaria? #DWTS34 #DWTS," one Twitter user asked, while another tweeted: "ENOUGH OF THE HILARIA AND GLEB VOTES!!!!!!!!! STOP ROBBING GOOD PERFORMERS!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The hashtag #JusticeForLauren began trending on social media as fans expressed their outrage over Lauren's elimination. But amidst all the drama, it seems like Hilaria Baldwin is here to stay – at least for now.

As the camera captured Kris, Alec and several of Alec and Hilaria's young children in the audience, a banner appeared on the bottom of the screen that read: 'Hilaria's family & friends'

In other news, Hilaria took to Instagram to share a behind-the-scenes look at her rehearsal with Gleb. The reality star revealed that she was feeling anxious about performing in front of a live audience and confessed: "I said, 'When I'm talking, you are not talking.' And that goes viral." Alec Baldwin loved the moment so much that he joked it would make for great TV.

But what really got everyone talking was Hilaria's TikTok-themed performance to Shake It to the Max (Fly) by MOLIY, Shenseea, Skillibeng and Silent Addy. The judges praised her sharp movements and clinical precision, but Carrie Ann Inaba still couldn't help but feel that Hilaria's musicality was off.

As for Kris Jenner, it seems like she's got a new role to add to her plate: Hilaria Baldwin's biggest cheerleader. Whether or not you're Team Hilaria or Team Lauren, one thing is certain – the drama in DWTS just got a whole lot juicier with Kris Jenner on the scene.

Fans flocked to social media to express their surprise over Jenner's cameo as well as to remark on her association with the Baldwin family
