“Dancing With the Stars“ Eliminates Two More Pairs

Written by: Blakely Slater
Only five pairs are left to battle for #1 on “Dancing With the Stars.“
Audiences and judges eliminated two more celebrities from “Dancing with the Stars.”
Former NFL player Michael Irvin and “Iron Chef America” host Mark Dacascos were sent home at the end of Tuesday night’s episode.
Irvin and partner Anna Demidova received the lowest score from the judges after dancing Monday night. Their disappointing performance combined with a lack of necessary votes from home viewers led to their dismissal, but Irvin was still appreciate of all the fans who kept him around for so long.
“We have great love out here,” he told PEOPLE. “The voters kept us in. We were scoring 13s and 14s. That makes you feel great.”
Because of partner Lacey Schwimmer’s bout of flu, Dacascos was forced to dance without her on Monday night. He practiced once with Tony Dovalini and performed with Anna Trebunskaya.
On Tuesday, Lacey returned for the elimination round, and joined her partner for the dance-off against Aaron Carter.
Although the judges complimented both performances, they ultimately chose in favor of Carter, but Dacascos is not holding a grudge.
“Would I trade the experience? Heck no!” he told PEOPLE. “It was one of the best professional experiences I’ve had in my life.
Five couples are left to fight for the top spot.
