Tuesday was elimination night on the hit ABC reality show Dancing With the Stars. It came down to the two most popular celebrity contestants this season: Pamela Anderson and Kate Gosselin.

Who went home on DWTS? It turned out to be the end of the line for the reality show mother of eight, a fact that likely brought judge Bruno great satisfaction. He has been particularly harsh with his feedback, calling her dancing “crap”. Gosselin and her partner Tony actually talked about it in an interview this week – video below.

So why did Kate’s loyal fan base turn on her? We’d hazard a guess that the clip that was played on DWTS Monday night prior to her performance cinched her ticket back to Wernersville, PA. During the lead-in video, Tony was giving her instructions and she yawned and barely reacted, sending a clear signal that she was no longer engaged in the process.

We believe that Tony deserves a medal for his patience in dealing with the TLC diva. It could not have been easy. And yet…it was great television and we were drawn to her antics week after week — and maybe even secretly thrilled when she came through unscathed during previous eliminations. DWTS has never had such high ratings and they owe her a debt of gratitude for that.

Kate and Tony headed over to Jimmy Kimmel Live last night after the elimination show – check it out in our video gallery.
