The ringers tend to do poorly in the public votes on average, so if anything they're disadvantaged in the competition where it counts.

Where as goodlooking contestants that aren't ringers, and disabled contestants (regardless of any other popular characteristics that they might have) will do well in the public vote, regardless of their performances.

To mention Sam this year for example (because Livia did mention her earlier) she clearly had a nice bump in her vote due to her looks, but was also seen as relatable because she clearly didn't have dancing experience prior to the Show.

And obviously disabled contestants do get pushed towards the top 6 fairly often.
