— -- Your look at the five biggest and most buzz-worthy stories of the morning.

1. 'Dancing With the Stars' Movie Night

It was "Movie Night" on ABC's "Dancing With the Stars," and the 11 celebrities competing for the mirror ball trophy did so Monday while dancing to songs from their favorite films.

Unfortunately for Randy Couture however, the curtain officially closed for the mixed martial artist and actor. His super-charged performances earned him the least amount of critical acclaim from the judges and viewers, making his paso double routine to the theme song from Rocky his final attempt on the dance floor.

2. Protesters Fill Hong Kong Streets as Reform Deadline Looms

Pro-democracy protesters filled the streets of Hong Kong Tuesday, one day ahead of a deadline for governmental reform.

The Occupy Central movement says it set an Oct. 1 deadline for the city’s unpopular Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying to meet their demands for genuine democracy and for him to step down as leader of Hong Kong. The deadline was established in recent days, a means to elicit a government response.

Oct. 1 marks the 65th anniversary of the establishment of the People’s Republic of China.

3. Body of Arkansas Real Estate Agent Beverly Carter Found

Authorities found the body of Arkansas real estate agent Beverly Carter overnight, days after she vanished while showing a house to a prospective customer.

Carter's body was found in Cabot, Pulaski County Sheriff's Office Lt. Carl Minden told ABC News. The Little Rock suburb is located about 25 miles north from the house she was showing in Scott.

Aaron Lewis, 33, has been apprehended and admitted to the kidnapping after being questioned by police, Minden said. Lewis did not admit to murder and did not provide any details about Carter's whereabouts, Minden said.

Lewis is scheduled to appear in court this morning and faces a charge of capital murder, Minden said.

4. White House Fence Jumper Got Farther Than Previously Thought, Sources Say

The man who broke into the White House two weeks ago was able to make his way far into the property before being tackled in the East Room -- the room where President Obama and many other presidents have made some of their most important announcements, a law enforcement official confirmed to ABC News.

The development calls into question the narrative originally released by the Secret Service, which had suggested that Omar Gonzalez, 42, of Texas, had been taken into custody near the front doors of the White House after jumping the fence and running more the 100 yards into the national landmark.

5. Kansas City Chiefs Fans Reclaim Guinness World Record for Crowd Noise

The roar topped the previous record, 137.6 decibels at Seattle’s CenturyLink Field last year.
