Low scores and relative obscurity are conspiring to make Hope Solo the next to leave “Dancing with the Stars.”
With a total of 49 out of a possible 70 points from the judges on Monday’s semi-finals, Solo, the U.S. women’s soccer team goalie, was alone at the bottom by seven full points.
At the top of the leaderboard, Ricki Lake regained the top spot for the fifth time, earning a perfect 30 for the first of her three dances, a near perfect 29 for the second. J.R. Martinez, who scored two perfect 30s last week, struggled with an ankle sprain and could only manage a 23 and 27 (and a 6 for the third dance) to manage just 46 for the night.
Surging to second for the first time all season was Rob Kardashian with 65 for the night.
But viewer votes count for half of the result totals, so it may be someone else going home Tuesday. The three who remain go to the finals of the 13th season next week.
