In a dazzling entrance on 'Dancing With the Stars', Maura Higgins captivated the audience not just with her moves but with an eye-catching accessory—the illustrious Hermès Birkin bag. Making its unexpected debut during a 'The Traitors'-themed Foxtrot performance on the second night of DWTS Season 35, the luxurious accessory was held by pro partner Mark Ballas who dramatically arrived from a coffin. This performance, set to 'Black Velvet' by Alannah Myles, enthralled viewers not only with its narrative flair but with the plush plum bag; a nod to Higgins’ memorable journey on 'The Traitors', where co-star Rob Rausch dramatically secured the opulent bag for her. True to form, this ostentatious accessory carried more than mere style points. Rob Rausch, seated beside Lisa Rinna, presented the Birkin with the couple’s voting details prominently displayed, sparking a flurry of excitement across social media. Fans erupted with joyous commentary, noting the bag's theatrical entrance into ballroom folklore. Phrases such as "iconic" and "brought tears to my eyes" peppered the trending digital conversation. The performance itself proved to be more than just a theatrical spectacle—Higgins and Ballas delivered an impressive score of 21/30. This not only landed them at the top of the leaderboard for the night but also marked a triumphant beginning for Higgins on the DWTS stage. This vibrant kickoff was part of the female celebrities-themed episode, where stars honored No. 1 songs from their birth years. Despite this joyous high, the night saw the departure of Sarah Jane Nader and her pro partner Hailey Bills, following in the footsteps of Conner Leavitt, eliminated from the previous episode dedicated to male celebrities. As the groundbreaking two-night premiere wrapped, anticipation builds for upcoming episodes. New episodes are slated to air every Tuesday at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and Disney+, with next-day streaming available on Hulu, ensuring fans can continue to witness the captivating blend of dance, drama, and unexpected delights that define this celebrated series.
