'Dancing With the Stars' Latin Night Will Feature First Elimination of the Season
One of the 12 couples will be eliminated Monday night.
— -- Tonight is "Latin Night" on "Dancing With the Stars."
Week two of "DWTS" begins with 12 couples performing the rumba, salsa, samba, paso doblé, cha cha or Argentine tango.
Later, the show will stage its first elimination of the season.
Geraldo Rivera received the lowest score on last week's premiere. His goal for Monday night is to advance and last longer than another journalist who competed on the show a decade ago.
"I would be extremely disappointed that I didn't beat Tucker Carlson, who went home in the first week," Rivera tells ABC Radio. "I'd be extremely disappointed. But, you know, someone's gotta go. But we're going to really try."
Former football star Doug Flutie was also in the bottom half of the leader board last week, but his pro partner, Karina Smirnoff, is maintaining a positive attitude.
"We're not going to concentrate on the scores, we're going to concentrate on the fact that we had the whole ballroom screaming 'Flutie,'" she explained. "We need to come back and hit it out of the ballpark week two."
