2 Celebrities Leave ‘Dancing with the Stars’

Politician Tom DeLay and actress Debi Mazar are done with Dancing with the Stars. Both have turned in their dance shoes.

DeLay quit on Tuesday after it was revealed that he had sustained stress fractures in both feet, while Mazar was purges the old-fashioned way...low scores and low fan support.

Each of them did the samba on Monday night. DeLay scored 15 points (out of a possible 30) for his performance with dance partner Cheryl Burke.

Mazar and her partner, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, finished with 17 points.

Votes kept Tom DeLay alive, but physicians and producers recommended that he quit the competition due to his injuries.

Mazar had trouble with the samba and missed a major step during Monday's show. Judges said the dance "lacked sizzle."

"It was neat and precise. But for me, it just didn't ignite," head judge Len Goodman stated.
