Many others had high hopes for the 39-year-old, predicting that she could make the final, with some going as far as saying she could lift the coveted Mirrorball trophy.
Amanda has already impressed audiences
Amanda was confirmed as one of this year's celebrity contestants earlier this month, and she looked amazing in a blue floral mini dress in a follow-up post after the announcement.
Pointing her toe as she stood in front of giant letters that spelled out "DWTS", Amanda shared her excitement about taking on a new challenge after a turbulent year that saw her lose her husband, Nick Cordero to COVID-19.
"I'M FREAKING OUT! This is a dream come true!" she began her post. "It's been seven years since I've danced and performed.

"In those years, I created a fitness business, became a mom, moved to a new city, went through the worst possible time in my life and then became an author and a talk show host. That girl I knew seven years ago I don’t really know anymore but I’m determined to find her again!"

She added: "I got asked today why I wanted to do this? I’m doing it for me! I want to dance again! I want to learn, rehearse, perform and grow.
"This will be all new for me. I’ve never done ballroom and really never been partnered. But in the spirit of living my life I am beyond excited to get on the dance floor, do something new and try!! Come with me on this journey, this absolute dream come true, as I join Season 30 of Dancing With The Stars!"
