Ross Steps Quickly To "Dancing" Exit

In the blink of an eye, Jeffrey Ross is off ABC's "Dancing With the Stars."

The comedian, who suffered a scratched cornea after his professional partner, Edyta Sliwinska, accidentally poked him during a rehearsal Monday, was the first star eliminated from the seventh season of ABC's dancing competition. The pair received a score of 14 out of 30 from the judges - the lowest of the night - for their cha cha cha routine.

"I'm more ha ha ha than cha cha cha," Ross joked while wearing a glittery eye patch. His supporters in the audience also sported black eyepatches in solidarity, and several of his "Dancing With The Stars" rivals donned them before joining Ross and his partner in a last dance.

Before Ross was dismissed, each of the remaining couples performed a new dance Tuesday. Model-actress Brooke Burke again dominated, scoring a 26 for a quickstep routine. The former host of E!'s "Wild On" and her partner, Derek Hough, also claimed the top score Monday. The night's lowest score went to "Married With Children" actor Ted McGinley.

The remaining celebrities include chef Rocco DiSpirito; NFL star Warren Sapp; TV personalities Burke and Kim Kardashian; singers Lance Bass and Toni Braxton; Olympians Misty May-Treanor and Maurice Greene; and actors McGinley, Cloris Leachman, Cody Linley and Susan Lucci.

Another star was to be eliminated Wednesday.
