“Dancing With the Stars” says goodbye to the fan favorite in double elimination

“Dancing With the Stars” is back on track.

After a week's break and back-to-back performances on “Soul Train Night” on October 7 and “Hair Metal Night” on October 8, two more couples exited the competition in a double elimination.

During elimination night, the 11 remaining couples danced to classic rock anthems along with guest judge and rock 'n' roll superstar Gene Simmons of KISS.

At the start of the night, Chandler Kinney and Brandon Armstrong were at the top of the leaderboard, while Reginald VelJohnson and Emma Slater were at the bottom. After the jury's evaluation and viewer voting, another pair comes closer to the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy.

While the stars were in the midst of the competition, co-host Julianne Hough joked that Anna Delvey would have another headline “nothing” moment with Eric Roberts. After her elimination, the convicted cheater was asked what she would take away from her “DWTS” experience, to which she replied, “Nothing.”

Roberts, who wasn't thrilled with his performance, had few words for Hough when asked how he felt about getting his points. “Is this another 'nothing' moment,” Hough said, while Roberts looked surprised and said, “No, no!”

Olympian Ilona Maher also experienced an emotional moment when she received her feedback from the jury. Through tears, the athlete was hard on herself, telling Hough before her evaluation, “That was a really hard dance for me… you do so well in rehearsal and then you mess it up.”

In an exciting twist, former Bachelor Joey Graziadei and his partner Jenna Johnson ended the night at the top of the leaderboard with a total of 70 out of 80 points.
