The duo led all dancers after their hoedown Monday, and their exit prompted boos from the crowd. Kelly Monaco and partner Valentin Chmerkovskiy, who were at the bottom of the leaderboard, were deemed safe early in Tuesday’s episode.
Other dancers who remain in the hunt for the Glitterball trophy include Emmitt Smith, Shawn Johnson, Apolo Ohno, Melissa Rycroft, Gilles Marini, and Kirstie Alley. Tuesday’s episode will be bumped by coverage of the presidential election. Host Tom Bergeron announced that Dancing had nixed plans to have an instant elimination Monday and instead will not send anyone home.
