Dancing with the Stars Spring 2008: The Third Elimination

A third couple was eliminated from contention this evening on Dancing with the Stars: The Results. As always, the show started with a review of last night's performances, done couple by couple, and clips from the celebrities' backstage confessionals. Len announced that the encore performance of the night would belong to Steve Guttenberg and one-night-only partner Jonathan Roberts, and the unlikely duo danced what Tom dubbed 'the Mango', which ended with both men in a pile on the floor. Tom and Samantha then went over the judges' leaderboard from last night, and Kristi Yamaguchi and Mark, and Adam Carolla and Julianne were proclaimed safe.

After the break, pop star Kylie Minogue performed her latest hit single while a group of men clad in glittery black outfits joined her on the dancefloor. Personalities in attendance last night gave their opinions on the celebrities' performances and the judges' critiques, and then two more couples - Priscilla Presley and Louis and Marissa Jaret Winokur and Tony - moved on to the next round of competition.

Samantha interviewed the four celebrities who will definitely be competing next week after the break. Marissa said that she felt she would be going home and didn't sleep last night, and Adam said he was just there to plug his new movie "The Hammer". A humorous segment featuring the celebs and their "hobbies" then aired. We found out that Jason builds miniature boat models; Marlee works as a volunteer police officer; Shannon is President of the MacGyver fan club; Kristi is a competitive hot dog eating champion; Priscilla operates her own psychic hotline; Marissa is a surfer; Steve is a freestyle rapper; and Cristian has his own pet otter. (Keep in mind that it's April Fool's Day, folks. Sadly, it actually took me a few minutes to 'get it'.) The Macy*s Stars of Dance performance came next.
