DWTS elimination today got Nene Leakes bidding the set of the hottest dancing show goodbye. It was a tough competition Monday night with the Latin-themed show and all of the remaining seven couples did their best. However, DWTS elimination has to send home one dancing couple, and this week it was 'Real Housewives' star Nene Leakes and professional partner Tony Dovolani, who got eliminated from the competition.
Last week on 'Dancing With The Stars' season 18 episode 6, fans saw the exit of Drew Carey and professional dance partner Cheryl Burke from the show after obtaining the lowest scores and fan votes. This week, during the DWTS elimination, Nene Leakes got the lowest score and fan votes. Hence, she and partner Tony Dovolani were sent home Monday.
At the start of ABC's hot dance competition show, Ricky Martin proved that he still got the moves as he danced to the beat of his World Cup Song "Vida." After which, he joined the rest of the judges in critiquing the performances of the remaining couples.
