Cheryl Burke<\/strong><\/a> shut down haters who critiqued her look.<\/p>\n Burke, 41, took to Instagram<\/a> on Thursday, February 19, to clap back at internet trolls who poked fun at her eyebrows.<\/p>\n \u201cFor those that keep saying, \u2018Why do I have my eyebrows going all the way down to my cheeks?\u2019 This is just my bone structure on my face,\u201d she said in the reel. \u201cI have sunken in temples.\u201d<\/p>\n The former Dancing With the Stars<\/em> pro added that she\u2019s thought about getting filler in her face to address the \u201csunken in\u201d look.<\/p>\n \u201cI realize that my temples are sunken in, so it is what it is for now until I decide to pull the trigger and get filler,\u201d she continued, telling haters to \u201cback off.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cUntil then, focus on your own face,\u201d she said. Burke also made it clear that she\u2019s not penciling on her eyebrows \u201cdown to [her] cheeks,\u201d but that her bone structure creates a \u201cshadow\u201d to her temples.<\/p>\n She concluded the video by saying, \u201cShould we pick on your face now?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cApparently I \u2018draw my eyebrows down to my cheeks,\u2019\u201d Burke captioned the post. \u201cNo \u2014 my temples are naturally more hollow, and yes, I\u2019m aware of it. Whether I choose filler or not is a personal decision.\u201d She added, \u201cIn the meantime, let\u2019s spend less time analyzing faces and more time building something meaningful.\u201d<\/p>\n This isn\u2019t the first time Burke has clapped back at haters. In October 2025, she responded to hate comments after she made an appearance as a guest judge on Dancing With the Stars<\/em>.<\/p>\n At the time, she gave Alix Earle<\/strong> and Val Chmerkovskiy<\/strong> a 9, while the season\u2019s main judges, Carrie Ann Inaba<\/strong>, Bruno Tonioli<\/strong> and Derek Hough<\/strong>, each gave her a 10. Earle\u2019s stepmom, Ashley Dupr\u00e9<\/strong>, then made comments<\/a> about Burke\u2019s look via TikTok, telling her to \u201ctake more Ozempic.\u201d<\/p>\n Burke then defended her critiques of Earle via social media. \u201cMy comments didn\u2019t just come out of nowhere. It came from personal experience. It came from being on this show for 26 seasons, and it also came from all the years of being trained, being coached myself and I have seen so many mixed reviews, which is totally fine, but what\u2019s not okay is I\u2019ve also seen so many aggressive ones and a lot of body shaming ones,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n She continued, seemingly referencing Durp\u00e9\u2019s comments, \u201cI know that I did the best that I could with the information that I had and with what I saw in real time, and for the people who think body shaming is OK<\/a>, especially in front of your children.\u201d Burke added, \u201cThat sends a powerful message about what you value.\u201d<\/p>\n In Dupr\u00e9\u2019s TikTok, she was seen watching Earle dance on the show with her other kids, Izabel, 13, Penelope, 10, and Thomas, 8. After Burke didn\u2019t give Earle a perfect score, Dupr\u00e9, 40, said, \u201cGo take more Ozempic.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<\/blockquote>\n
