Another Celeb Squashed on Dancing With the Stars
As musical guest Shakira reminded us tonight, hips don't lie.
And it was those wiggly little body parts that helped usher lambada dancers Joanna Krupa and Mya to safety within the first half hour of Tuesday's Dancing With the Stars.
Then again, Michael Irvin and his practically stationary feet also got an easy pass into next week, so maybe this show really is about the fans at home.
And what fickle fans they are.
Ultimate Fighting champ Chuck Liddell and partner Anna Trebunskaya were knocked out of the competition tonight, despite having never experienced the view from last place—not even last night, when their country two-step left much to be desired.

"I had fun. We had a good time, made a run at it," the sweetly soft-spoken fighter said after the elimination. "It's hard to do. I made a shot at it."
"I had so much fun working with you. You are a gentle giant. You are my bear and you are my hippo...That's my nice words to him," added Anna. "And you made me so proud each single week you danced."
So Len Goodman got his wish and the better dancer stayed.
Two weeks removed from the top of the leaderboard, the cute-again Aaron Carter joined Chuck in the bottom two after he and Karina Smirnoff fell short with their unfortunately loca lambada.
They scored only 18, just one point higher than Chuck and Anna.
Meanwhile, bottom dwellers Irvin and Louie Vito apparently charmed their way to safety on a topsy-turvy night that had the previously middling Melissa Joan Hart—whose Charleston was the judges' encore of choice tonight—sharing the top spot with the always appealing Mya.
The remaining 10 stars will dance twice next week—a group hustle and either the paso doble or Argentine tango.
