Pink Team Moderators' Picks[edit]

Fans compared Everman's picks were just as bad as Ava selling off her virginity the year before. She also defended the fact that the winning moderator of the nineteenth season of Dancing with the Stars, this entitled her and her fellow Pink team moderators allowing Riley and Nick as VFTG picks.

Before the beginning of the cycle, Ava Zinn, announced that a schedule conflict between Vote for the Girls and the renovations of the Aeverine Zinn Holdings facility was found, with the renovations and the twentieth season of Dancing with the Stars began on the same day (March 16,) causing a dispute. Zinn brought Jackson Steele, CEO of NoSirGifts Venues, the company that syndicates the site, on stage to stress that under no circumstances that a cycle of Vote for the Girls is to be interrupted for any reason. As Steele exited the stage, a member of the audience threw a shoe at Steele, knocking Steele unconscious.

Upon seeing that her pick of Lovey James was not saved, Lanise White said "I hate this nigger country," right before the top 24 results were announced. White was ejected, but she received a standing ovation as she left the set, and the crowd quickly became hostile and dangerous. Fans went so far as to throw coins at the purple team moderators (Julia Passalt, Rhonda Rhodes, and Kendra Ray) after White's ejection. Ava Zinn was absent as she was dealing with the facility renovations, while Holly Everman recalled being scared to even vote because of the hostile crowd.
