LOS ANGELES — She may be the girl next door, but Holly Madison’s reality star status was what kept her in the competition on “Dancing With the Stars.” Denise Richards earned extra points for her samba during Tuesday’s results show, but it didn’t help the 38-year-old actress compete with Madison’s viewer votes and Richards was cast out of the ballroom.
Richards said after Monday’s performance that she “would be shocked” not to be among the low-scorers forced into the dance off _ a last chance to increase her judges’ scores and remain in the competition _ with her professional partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy.
But despite what judges said was an improved samba, the couple failed to dominate fellow low-scoring couple, Madison and Dmitry Chaplin.
Madison said Monday she was dreading the dance off.
“I don’t want to have to do it with this dance because it’s the hardest one,” Madison said. “I’m just praying people vote and I can stay on another week and have another chance.”
