First we lost Niecy Nash. Now Chad Ochocinco has been kicked off 'Dancing With the Stars.' Still, the entertaining NFL star with the large personality and sartorial splendor very graciously thanked the staff for the opportunity, saying that he learned a lot in an environment in which he felt like "a fish out of water."
But maybe his loss is also his gain. During his time on the show, rumors swirled that he and his dancing partner, Cheryl Burke, clicked more than their heels together. Both have neither denied or confirmed the rumors.
Ochocinco and Burke were coy about their relationship throughout the season. Fans speculated that the two might be more than friends when the football star bought the professional dancer a flashy diamond ring one week and a delicate diamond pendant the next.
They continued their coyness Tuesday. Burke characterized their relationship as a "special friendship that will always mean the world to me." Ochocinco said that what the couple built during dance practice will "continue for a lifetime," while Burke called her partner "the most amazing, soft, gentle man in the world."
He and Burke were ousted from the hit ABC show yesterday, making them the 100th couple banished from the ballroom during the show's 10 seasons.
Ochocinco came into Tuesday's results show in last place, with 52 points out of 60 for his two dances. Judges' scores are combined with viewer votes to determine which couple is eliminated each week.
Do you think Ochocinco lost the dance contest but gained a new "partner"?

03-May-10 - Nushawn Williams, the drug-abusing, sex-obsessed New York man gave the gift of HIV to his victims. Now, after serving 12 years for his despicable crime, New York authorities have a problem. What are they to do with Williams, 33, upon his release, since he has shown little remorse for his crime, demonstrated violent behavior and just might try to infect more women? The answer is to simply keep Williams in jail.
He did a good job, I'am actually surprised that he lasted this long after starting off bad. I guess we will see some ballroom dancing in the endzone this year.
I THINK THE JUDGES ARE VERY UNFAIR TO THE AFRICAN AMERICAN DANCERS. THEY ALWAYS GIVE THEM LOW SCORES. CHERYL AND CHAD DID GREAT. CHAD WAS THE MOST INPROVED DANCING THATS WHO SHOULD GET THE TROPHY. DON'T THINK I WILL BE WATCHING DANCING WITH THE STARS NEXT SEASON. THEY ALREADY KNOW WHO THE WINNER IS GOING TO BE AND NOT THATS FAIR. CHERYL AND CHAD I WISH U2 THE BEST IF YOU DO DECIDE TO HOOK UP.(SMILE)
I thought this show was suppose to be about people who had no dancin experience?? Chad did a good job and IMO prolly would have made it to the finals if it wasn't for some dancers who had more dancing experience.
Nicole Scherzinger, is a professional dancer and i dont think she should've been allowed on the show she gets a damn near perfect score every time.
Erin Andrews just on there gettin sympathy votes for her situation and Evan is an ice skater and use to different kinds of choreography. Now that Chad is gone idc who wins so i guess i wont watch it next week.
