Cloris Leachman Continues On ‘Dancing’ But Another Contender Goes Home

Funny lady Cloris Leachman has been saved to dance another dance.

Though the Oscar and multi-Emmy winner obtained the lowest score on Monday night on “Dancing With the Stars” it was Kim Kardashian who was sent packing.

Kim appeared slightly shocked when host Tom Bergeron announced she was being set home, but the reality TV star had failed to impress the judges in either the first or second week of competition.

Upon learning she was leaving, Kim took time to reference her late father, famed attorney Robert Kardashian.

“You know what? Today, five years ago, my father passed away and I know he’s really happy and watching over me and I made him proud,” she said.

And Mark Ballas, Kim’s professional dance partner, who last season won the mirror ball trophy with then partner Kristi Yamaguchi, was sent home too.

His father, Corky Ballas, who is dancing with Cloris, remained in the competition and as Mark said goodbye, he parted with encouraging words for his dad.

“He’s doing such a great job,” Mark said. “He inspires me, he’s always been my hero and I’m so glad to be sharing the stage with him.”
