Dancing With the Stars Eliminates 3rd Celebrity After "Shaky" Performance

The dance floor just got a little less crowded.
Dancing With the Stars contestant Giada De Laurentiis was knocked out of the season 35 competition after ranking the lowest alongside ballroom pro Alan Bersten during week two.
In the Sept. 22 episode, the chef danced a tango to “Venus” by Shocking Blue , bringing the evening's "Viral Hits Night" theme to life.
But judge Bruno Tonioli called it a “salsa without spice” and told De Laurentiis she needed to “go for it” like “jumping off a cliff.” Meanwhile, judge Carrie Ann Inaba summed up the performance with one word: "Shaky."
After the judges revealed their scores of 12 out of 30, De Laurentiis noted, "It's disappointing, but hopefully people will vote for us, and I'll get another shot."
