The First Celebrity Voted Off DWTS 12 is...

...further down the page.

The first results show of season 12 was actually relatively filler-free.  Early in the season there are lots of celebrities to put under the lights I guess.

The show had a couple of dances from the new pro dance troupe.  They played them up a lot but they only did one real set.  Maybe they'll dance more in the future.

They also had a singer.

The first group of celebs to be told their fate were the sports stars.

Hines was safe, Chris was safe, Sugar Ray had to wait "to find out his fate".

They miked up the dancers this season (or at least I never noticed before) and you heard them talking to each other.  It was really interesting, especially Louis is a chatterbox while actually dancing!

Next group - actors (some unkind people might say the wrestler should be in this group - I'm never unkind...).

Ralph was safe.  Kirstie was safe.  Chelsea and Mark waited in anticipation...and they were safe too.

Romeo and Mike next - Romeo safe, Mike still in jeopardy.

Final group - Petra, Kendra and Wendy.  Wendy was still in jeopardy.

And then Mike Catherwood was voted off Dancing with the Stars season 12.

He accepted it very graciously, and actually danced better when he was goofing around at the end than he did in the competition.

Mike is an incredibly nice guy who can't dance and has a small fan base.

Bless him.

Who'll go next week?  We shall see!
