We've now passed the halfway mark on Dancing with the Stars and the line-up is getting smaller and smaller, with the seventh celebrity leaving the show on Tuesday 7th November.

For this week's show, the celebrities and their professional dance partners danced to songs behind some of the most infamous music videos in history, finishing the night off with a team dance where the youngest celebs faced off against the oldest.

But at the end of it, one pair had to go home, with YouTuber and actress Lele Pons and Brandon Armstrong becoming the latest couple to be eliminated.

Despite finishing in third place on the leaderboard for Music Video Night, and just one point behind joint top spot holders, Ariana Madix and Pasha Pashkov and Xochitl Gomez and Val Chmerkovskiy, it wasn't enough to save Lele from the audience vote.

The results shocked the judges and Lele's partner Brandon.

"That one burns,” he told hosts Alfonso Ribeiro and Julianne Hough. “I definitely don’t think Lele should’ve gone home tonight. I think Lele was getting better, no dance experience coming in. She’s the best partner she could’ve been.”
