Dancing With The Stars: Another One Gone

Did Cristian & Cheryl's fans rally behind them this week or did they switch their loyalty to another pair of dancers? We found out last night on the Dancing With The Stars results show and it was definitely shocking.

After an encore dance from Jason & Edyta, Len told the couples that there would be a rule change next week. The judges decided to work with the dancers instead of against them and informed them that they would be allowed to do one lift in each of their dances next week. That's been a long time coming and the news was well received from both the audience and the dancers.

Was it just me or could you also not stop laughing during both of Def Leppard's performances? Seriously, they were such an odd choice for the show. There had to have been another band or artist who had an album dropping this week. Don't get me wrong. I had some really good times back in the day to "Pour Some Sugar On Me" but it was twenty years ago. Did the lead singer have a facelift? Please tell me he wasn't wearing hair extensions. Their new single is a hit? That's weird because I haven't heard it on the radio anywhere.

Both of the Dance Center segments were hilarious. Their skits are always my favorites on results night and Kenny Mayne and Jerry Rice didn't disappoint. Len, as always, was a fun sidekick to the duo.

Before the elimination, Tom and bushy-haired Samantha called Cristian & Cheryl down on the floor to have a little chat. They asked him about his arm and what had happened to cause the injury. Cristian said that the doctors told him he had a ruptured tendon of his bicep. Now I don't know about you but that sounds really painful. After having an MRI done, the doctors told him he would need surgery to repair the damage but still gave him the green light to continue on with the show if he felt comfortable enough about it. He chose to trudge on.

And then it was the moment everybody had been waiting for. Would Cristian & Cheryl be in the bottom two? Absolutely not! Marissa & Tony and Shannon & Derek were the two under the red light this week. In this seventh week of competition, it was announced that Shannon & Derek would be leaving.

They both professed their undying friendship toward each other and made their way to the dance floor for one final dance. Poor Shannon looked really distraught and couldn't stop crying on Derek's shoulder. I honestly felt bad for the girl. She had improved a lot since the beginning of the season and I was excited to see what they would do next week. But alas....

Next week, Dancing With The Stars will be celebrating its 100th episode. The judges will be counting down their top ten dances of the first five seasons and many many stars will be coming back to dance. Even Maks will be back! Yum yum!
