After last weeks' shocking elimination of Shannen Doherty, the dancers on season 10 of 'Dancing With the Stars' held their breath to see who would be the next to go. Buzz Aldrin, who received the lowest number of votes from the judges, was kicked off this week. Surprisingly, Jake Pavelka, who received a 21 from the judges, joined him in the bottom two.

Last week, 'Dancing with the Stars' kicked off its 10th season on ABC with 11 stars hoping to make a big impression on both the judges and the audience. Despite a respectable performance with partner Mark Ballas, Shannen Doherty was the first to be voted off the show, lacking in the fan vote.
