Dancing with the Stars had a shocking elimination last night!

This week, the celebrities returned to the Dancing with the Stars ballroom on Monday and performed routines honoring 1978’s Grease. This is the first time Dancing with the Stars used this theme, which was revealed by host Tyra Banks who admitted that she watched the movie for the first time only days earlier.

When it came to eliminations, it was sadly Spice Girl Mel C and her pro partner Gleb Savchenko who were sent home. The couple scored 36 out of 40 for their quickstep to “You’re the One That I Want.”

Shortly before her elimination, it was shown that Mel C was having a difficult time with her confidence. The star broke down into tears during rehearsal telling her partner Savchenko, “I feel like I don’t trust where to go with it, do you know what I mean? And sometimes I get upset because I feel like you’re really disappointed in me.”

Carrie Ann Inaba later acknowledged the vulnerable moment sharing, “I appreciate your vulnerability there because this whole thing is a journey, and as a judge, like, I’m not judging the vulnerability, but I love that you shared that,” Carrie Ann Inaba later told her. “It makes us appreciate what you do out there even more, and that’s the beauty of Dancing with the Stars.”

Dancing with the Stars airs Mondays at 8 p.m. on ABC. Next week the show will celebrate Halloween with a Horror Night-themed episode.
