ABC For Ralph Macchio, it was close, but not close enough. The 'Karate Kid' star was officially kicked out of the 'Dancing With the Stars' season 12 competition Tuesday night, ending a somewhat rocky road to the semifinals. Macchio, who began the season with an unexpectedly strong debut performance, thanked his fans and partner Karina Smirnoff for an unforgettable run on the show.

Despite a solid run in the competition, tonight, 'Dancing With the Stars' season 12 bid adieu to rapper Romeo, just one week before the semi-finals.

After weeks of narrowly surviving the competition, 'Dancing With the Stars' season 12 finally bid farewell to former Playmate-turned-reality star Kendra Wilkinson. The elimination came just one day after Wilkinson and partner Louis van Amstel impressed the judges with their demanding Tango, though even that wasn't enough to keep them around for another week.

For Chris Jericho, it's time to stop believing. The pro-wrestler officially got the boot from 'Dancing With the Stars' Tuesday night, after his tango to 'Don't Stop Believin'' on Monday earned the lowest score of the night (22). Jericho took the news pretty well, and even saved some room for a little humor, telling the audience he had to catch a plane to attend the Royal wedding.
