Lea Thompson Shouldn't Have Gone Home On 'DWTS'

Not only is Lea Thompson the hottest 53-year-old Ive ever seen, but shes a really good dancer, and she did not deserve to go home before Tommy Chong. Heres why.

Lea Thompson and pro partnerArtem Chigvintsev were eliminatedon the November 10 episode of Dancing With The Stars. The shocking decision meant Tommy Chong, 76, who consistently ends up at the bottom of the leader board, will be moving on to the semi-finals.

Tommy is an adorable older man but he is so far behind technically. He barely moves on the dance floor instead his partner PetaMurgatroyd, who I love, carries the team.

This season is full of young girls Janel Parrish, Sadie Robertson and BethanyMota and Lea did an amazing job of keeping up with them.Lea is three times older than Sadie, and was neck and neck with the reality TV star technically.

The judges comments on November 10 were great for Lea. After herfirst dance, judge Bruno Tonioli said: Dont doubt yourself! Youve got it, darling.

Head judge LenGoodmansaid the dance was terrific.They got a 34 out of 40.

For their second dance, they scored even better, a 36. Carrie Ann Inaba called her the Queen of the Paso Doble and judgeJulianne Hough raved that it was amazing.

An emotional Lea told co-host Erin Andrews why she joined the cast of the show:

I wanted to challenge myself I wanted to do something different and hard and scary and I wanted to inspire myself and maybe some other moms out there.Even if youre 40 or 53 or 60, you can still try something new. You can fail, you can get back up and you can still be strong and sexy and vulnerable.

Tommy Chong Should Have Been Eliminated

Tommy was a great source of entertainment and fun in the beginning of the season, but its disappointing he wasnt send home during week 9. Its obvious the show is a popularity contest and not just about dancing.

I wasnt personally a fan of Michael Waltrip, but he received super harsh critiques from the judges and he was arguably a better dancer than Tommy.

The judges seem to laugh off the fact that Tommy barely moves on the floor and couldnt really dance at all. Instead, they just admired his courage and said he was entertaining and watchable.

Peta and Tommygot a total score of 57, a full 13 points lower than Lea on week 9.

I just dont think its fair Lea was eliminated. She was so passionate about the show and each dance. She really gave it 110%.

Do you think Lea should have been eliminated, or should Tommy have gone home, HollywoodLifers?
