Sadly for one couple, their routine was not enough to make it through to next week and they had to say goodbye to the famous dancefloor. Newsweek has everything you need to know about the results of Dancing with the Stars week 5.
Who Left ‘Dancing with the Stars’ Last Night?
Monday night’s (October 18) show was one of the most dramatic of the series, with one couple receiving top scores and a shock elimination in the space of two hours.
Spice Girl Melanie C and her professional partner Gleb Savchenko were the next couples to be eliminated from the competition, after finding themselves in the dance-off for the second week in a row.
Mel C went head to head against Olivia Jade and her professional partner Val Chmerkovskiy. The judges were divided over who send home, with Carrie Ann Inaba and Bruno Tonioli voting in favor of Mel C and Derek Hough voting in favor of Olivia.
As head judge, Len Goodman made the final decision, voting to save Olivia, sending Mel C home.
Mel’s exit comes as a huge surprise, considering her quickstep to “You’re the One That I Want” was described by Len as her “best dance” thus far.
They also received a score of 36 out of 40, placing them in joint-third place on the leaderboard.
Mel C took to Twitter to address her exit from Dancing with the Stars.
She penned: “I’m gutted to have been eliminated tonight but it’s one of these things and it wasn’t meant to be. It’s been an incredible experience and I’ve met some wonderful people, the foremost being my fantastic partner and teacher Gleb!”
She also added her thanks to her fans, the production team and crew of Dancing with the Stars.
