14 DAY TRIAL // She came very close to going home with the mirrorball trophy but it wasn’t close enough: actress and former Scientologist Leah Remini was sent home last night on ABC’s hit dancing competition Dancing With the Stars.
Above is one of her last routines she did with partner Tony Dovoloni, a jive they did on Trio Night, which saw them spoof the three judges on the panel, Carrie Ann Inaba, Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli. It was spectacular.
Perhaps this explains the shock of seeing Leah go home, since she was a fan-favorite. However, she walked out with her head held high, saying only good things about the experience.
“I take away so much. I have to thank Tony, he's put so much work, and the crew. This has been an amazing experience and I want to thank everybody here, Tony especially. My family for supporting me, my fans, everybody's been amazing,” she said after her name was called out.
Tony answered in the same glowing terms, praising Leah as the best partner he could have ever asked for.
“I have to tell you, I've never looked so forward to practice every single day. This woman would go the extra mile for me,” he said.
Are you sad to see Leah go home?
