Even though she got off the show, Blair remained in everyone's hearts for her brave performance every week. 

Disney+'s dancing show was one among the eight reality shows category of The Reality Show of 2022. Moreover, 'DWTS' star Blair was nominated for The Competition Show of 2022.

Blair has always been about the issues she has been facing regarding her health. The star just now uploaded a video on her social media saying, "I've been very open about my health and what’s become really clear to me over the last couple of years is that women’s health needs are not always heard, even our most basic everyday needs like menstrual health access." She further asked for fans' support and allies to make things better for women in the world.

The fan-voted award show took place at Barker Hanger in Santa Monica, California. People's Choice Awards honored 40 categories. The show was hosted by Kenan Thompson, who introduced guests from different genres of TV, film, and social media.
