Dancing with the Stars eliminated Martin Kove and his professional partner Britt Stewart after the 15 couples of Season 30 each took the stage and performed a new dance during Monday night's episode on ABC.

The Netflix star and Britt landed in the bottom two along with actress Christine Chiu and pro partner Pasha Pashkov based on the combination of judges' scores and home-viewer votes from the last two performance shows, including the live votes cast during Monday night's broadcast.

Dancing with the Stars judges Len Goodman, Carrie Ann Inaba, Derek Hough and Bruno Tonioli were able to vote to save one of the bottom-two couples from elimination.

Carrie Ann, Derek and Bruno all voted to save Christine and Pasha, and then Len revealed if he had to cast a tiebreaker vote, he would have also chosen to keep Christine and Pasha in the competition for another week. It was therefore a unanimous vote to send Martin and Britt packing.

Prior to Martin and Britt's ouster, each celebrity and professional pairing performed one time -- and two couples won the night by topping the two-week leaderboard.

Talk show host Amanda Kloots and pro partner Alan Bersten tied for first place on the judges' two-week leaderboard with popstar and Dance Moms alum JoJo Siwa and pro partner Jenna Johnson after both couples received a total of 60 out of 80 possible points.

Amanda and Alan performed a 32-point worthy foxtrot out of 40 possible points on Monday night, and Derek called Amanda "a vision" on the stage.

"You are a star!" Carrie Ann gushed of Amanda.

"That was like watching a Broadway musical built only around you -- those beautiful legs, those beautiful lines, the elegance, the strength, the milking of the movement. Amazing."

And Len said the dance was "like butter on a hot muffin."

JoJo and Jenna danced a cha cha routine that earned 31 points from the judges.

JoJo had explosive energy onstage and put on quite the show with Jenna, but Derek asked JoJo to contain her energy a little bit going forward since it can get a little "wild" and she needs to preserve the movement.

Spice Girl Melanie C. and pro partner Gleb Savchenko finished in third place on the two-week judges' leaderboard with a total of 57 points after the pair took the stage with a foxtrot routine that received 30 points from the judges.

Fourth place on the two-week leaderboard went to Olympic gold medalist Suni Lee and pro partner Sasha Farber with 56 total points.

Suni and Sasha performed a cha cha routine that received 28 points from the judges on Monday night.

Emmy-nominated actress Melora Hardin and pro partner Artem Chigvintsev claimed fifth place on the judges' two-week leaderboard with 53 total points after they danced a rumba that received 27 points from the judges.

And in sixth place was social-media sensation Olivia Jade and pro partner Val Chmerkovskiy with 52 total points. The couple took the stage with a 27-point worthy Viennese waltz on Monday night.

Two couples tied for seventh place on the leaderboard at 50 points: The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kenya Moore and pro partner Brandon Armstrong as well as WWE superstar Mike "The Miz" Mizanin and pro partner Witney Carson.

Kenya and Brandon performed a cha cha that received 24 points. Bruno called Kenya’s performance "a night off," but Len shocked the ballroom when he said the reality TV star has "plenty of gear in the rear."

And The Miz and Witney earned 26 points from the judges for their tango routine.

Two celebrities also tied for ninth place on the judges' leaderboard when both Christine and country singer Jimmie Allen received a total of 49 points for the two weeks.

Christine and Pasha danced a salsa on Monday night that received 24 judges' points, while Jimmie and pro partner Emma Slater took the stage with a rumba routine that racked in 27 judges' points.

Peloton instructor Cody Rigsby and pro partner Cheryl Burke placed eleventh on the judges' leaderboard with 48 total points although neither person was in the ballroom on Monday night.

Despite being fully vaccinated, Cheryl announced on Sunday that she tested positive for coronavirus.

"Now of course during training, she and Cody Rigsby were in close contact. Now he is also fully vaccinated, but out of abundance of caution, he is not in the ballroom with us tonight," Dancing with the Stars host Tyra Banks announced at the top of the broadcast.

"However, that does not mean that they are out of this competition. And, like all of our couples, they still want and they need your votes tonight!"

Viewers were able to watch and judge one of Cody and Cheryl's taped rehearsals from last week, before Cheryl tested positive for COVID-19. The pair was in a rehearsal studio and not in costume, so it didn't give fans the full effect.

Judges scored Cody and Cheryl 24 points for their rehearsal salsa routine.

Twelfth place on the judges' leaderboard belonged to actor Brian Austin Green and his girlfriend and pro partner Sharna Burgess, who received a total of 47 judges' points for the two weeks of performances.

Brian and Sharna performed a romantic and sexy rumba to celebrate their 11-month relationship that earned 23 judges' points.

The judges appreciated Brian and Sharna's chemistry and vulnerability on the dance floor but noted how they posed too much in the dance and there was not a lot of true rumba content.

Thirteenth place represented a tie between two couples.

The Bachelor star Matt James and partner Lindsay Arnold tied for thirteenth place at 46 total points on the judges' leaderboard with NBA champion Iman Shumpert and pro partner Daniella Karagach.

Iman and Daniella danced a rumba that received 25 points from the judges on Monday night, and Matt and Lindsay performed a samba that earned 22 judges' points.

Len joked that Matt's hips are "allergic to music" and he would've been better off moving his hips rather than taking off his shirt.

And finally, Martin and Britt finished the night in fifteenth -- and last -- place on the judges' leaderboard with only 28 total points after taking the stage on Monday night with a 15-point worthy cha cha.
