Skater Apolo Ohno and his professional dancer partner Karina Smirnoff then stood on stage with Melissa Rycroft and her pro partner Tony Dovolani as the hosts revealed which of the two couples was making it to the finals and which was going home. Ohno and Smirnoff were the first to be eliminated having the lowest votes from viewers combined with the scores from judges. Earlier on today's show they hit the stage to perform Michael Jackson's "Man in the Mirror" one more time.

"This competition was hard from the beginning and being a champion, I learned so much about her [Smirnoff] and so much about myself, this show is amazing...it forces you to become a champion, more confident, stronger, it's been a blessing, every single week the fans have been amazing," Ohno said following his elimination.

Emmit Smith and his pro dancer partner Cheryl Burke; and Kelly Monaco and her dancer partner Valentin Chmerkovsky still had to face elimination as of the writing of this article.

The Wanted and Paula Abdul performed tonight.

The finals will air next Monday at 8 pm. EST.
