Who got eliminated on 'Dancing with the Stars'? Tyler Cameron and Jackson Olson go home on Horror Movie Night

Two couples left the ballroom on Tuesday night. Tyler Cameron and pro Sharna Burgess and Jackson Olson and pro Emma Slater were eliminated on Dancing with the Stars’ Horror Movie Night (Oct. 27), the show’s first elimination in two weeks.

No one went home on Dedication Night on Oct. 20. That meant last week’s judges’ scores and viewer votes were combined with Tuesday’s totals to decide the double elimination, according to Gold Derby and E! News. Tatyana Ali, Cameron and Olson ended up in jeopardy. Ali was saved.

Who went home on Dancing with the Stars

• Tyler Cameron and Sharna Burgess: The Bachelorette alum danced a Viennese waltz inspired by Bram Stoker’s Dracula and scored 26 out of 40. He finished last on the two-week judges’ leaderboard with 58.
• Jackson Olson and Emma Slater: The Savannah Bananas player scored a season-high 35 for a Joker-inspired contemporary. He still went home, tied for sixth on the combined leaderboard at 67.

Cameron was candid about his last dance. “You saw me upset up there,” he said after the result, per E! News. “I was disappointed in myself because I felt like I let her down.” He added that Burgess had been “so good” to him.

Olson was upbeat. “I wanted to be on this [show] since last year, and I made a bunch of videos about it,” he said. “I got on it, and I got the most amazing partner in Emma. So, this journey has been amazing.”

TVLine called Olson’s exit the tougher one to watch, since he went out “after turning in [his] best work.”

DWTS scores tonight

Guest judge Shirley Ballas, head judge of the U.K.’s Strictly Come Dancing and mother of pro Mark Ballas, joined Carrie Ann Inaba, Derek Hough and Bruno Tonioli. She handed out two 4s. Here are Tuesday’s scores as reported by Gold Derby:

TVLine called Shum and Johnson’s routine the season’s first perfect score. Bruno’s verdict on it: “I could literally taste the fear.”

Connor’s breakout night

Connor Wood may have saved himself. The comedian tied for the lowest score on Dedication Night. Then his contemporary with Rylee Arnold earned 10s from Inaba and Hough. “Connor, I crown you the contemporary king,” Inaba said, according to Gold Derby. TVLine said the routine came just as he “seemed headed for elimination.”

Val Chmerkovskiy’s return

Val Chmerkovskiy was back after a one-week suspension over a social media post that alluded to Will Smith’s 2022 Oscars slap. The post came after Inaba criticized a lift by his wife, pro Jenna Johnson, E! News reported. He apologized to partner Jenna Dewan in rehearsal footage, and she told him, “I forgive you. I missed you.” Their tango scored 37 despite a brief stumble when Dewan’s shoe caught on her dress, according to TVLine.

Who is left on Dancing with the Stars

Eight couples remain heading into Week 8, ranked here by the combined two-week judges’ total (Gold Derby):

1. Harry Shum Jr. (76)
