Dancing with the Stars eliminated Lamar Odom and his professional partner Peta Murgatroyd after 10 celebrities took the stage with new dances during Monday night's Season 28 broadcast on ABC.

Lamar called his experience dancing with Peta on the show "beautiful" and told Dancing with the Stars host Tom Bergeron following his ouster, "I'm lucky to be walking and talking, so this was just another hill I could climb."

The former Khloe & Lamar star and NBA champion and Peta landed in the bottom two along with Queer Eye star Karamo Brown and partner Jenna Johnson based on the combination of judges' scores and live home-viewer votes from the last two performance shows. Like last week, votes were cast live as Dancing with the Stars aired in the Eastern and Central time zones on Monday night.

Dancing with the Stars judges Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Tonioli and Len Goodman were able to vote to save one of the bottom-two couples from elimination. (Len, as the head judge, casts the deciding vote in the case of opposing votes from Carrie Ann and Bruno).

Len, however, did not have to voice his opinion after both Carrie Ann and Bruno voted to save Karamo and Jenna.

In addition to the regular three judges, Monday night's episode also featured actress and former Dancing with the Stars contestant Leah Remini as a guest judge.

Prior to Lamar and Peta's elimination, each celebrity and professional pairing performed one time -- and Ally Brooke and partner Sasha Farber won the night by topping the two-week leaderboard.

Ally, a pop star and Fifth Harmony member, and Sasha claimed first place on the judges' leaderboard after receiving a two-week total score of 56 out of 70 points. On Monday night, Ally and Sasha executed a jive routine that earned 32 out of 40 points from the judges.
