'Dancing With the Stars': One Couple Gets the Axe After Emotional 'Use Your Vote' Night -- See Who Got Cut

Tonight was going to be a double elimination, but with Jeannie Mai out of the game, they've decided to just give the axe to one couple.

Tyra reads off the names of the couples who are safe and will be returning to dance again, until she gets to the bottom two.

The two couples in jeopardy are Skai and Alan as well as Chrishell and Gleb.

Carrie Ann votes to save Skai and Alan, and Bruno votes the same, meaning the road has come to and end for Chrishell and Gleb.

The pair seem to take the news well, and Chrishell is all smiles and Gleb blows kisses to the cast watching from the balcony.

The third and final relay dance of the night saw AJ, Kaitlyn and Skai face off in a samba battle.

AJ and Cheryl hit the dance floor first, trying their best to show of their moves to "Levitating" by Dua Lipa.

Kaitlyn and Artem hit the stage second, followed by Skia and Alan.

All three seem to have a really great time with the routine, and Bruno enjoys the effort.

AJ and Kaitlyn are given three bonus points, while Skai only gets two. It's really anyone's game tonight.

The second relay saw Justina face off against Johnny.

Jeannie would have been a part of this group, but her exist made it a two-way race for bonus points.

The two couples delivered impressive Viennese Waltz routines, but Johnny got the edge,

Derek ends up awarding Johnny with three bonus points and Justina with two.

This week, the show needs to fill their 2-hour run time, and that's a lot harder with only eight couples.

Therefore, we got the first-ever relay dances. Three groups of three (well, one group only has two, because Jeannie had to drop out) dance one type of routine.

The numbers are shorter, and the couples are rewarded bonus points from one judge.

The first group include Chrishell, Nelly and Nev, who all perform cha-chas. All three of the couples do pretty well, but it's Nev who shines the brightest.

Carrie Ann is the judge for this first relay, and she gives three bonus points to Nev, as well as two points to both Nelly and Chrishell.

It's unclear how much of an impact this will have on the final elimination, but we'll see soon enough.

AJ and Cheryl both got really candid about their addictions and struggles with substance abuse in their pretaped video package.

The singer reflected on his addictions to cocaine and alcohol, and how his daughter was instrumental in helping him get clean.

The pair took to the dance floor for a rumba set to “Way Down We Go” by Kaleo, and the number moved the judges, but also left them feeling confused.

"I tell you, I was so captivated by it, because the intensity, the intent, the drama, the purpose the storytelling. You were just killing it. But I have to say, it was supposed to be a rumba. So I lost a lot of the rumba action," Bruno shared. "It's very difficult, isn't it, what do I judge? Because I really did love the performance."

"AJ, for me, a hero heals their own wounds and shows others how to do the same," Derek shares. "I appreciate you sharing your journey, and I know you're going to help other people."

AJ gets choked up after the feedback when Tyra asks him if he has a message for other people in recovery who might be looking at this performance for inspiration.

"You know what, just one day at a time. And I want to dedicate this to all the addicts out there, struggling, because it's hard. But with a little courage, you can overcome," AJ shares.

The pair end up earning three 8s for a total of 24 out of 30.

Johnny and Britt are wonderful, and their foxtrot -- set to "Wonder" by Shawn Mendes -- is a real wonder.

Johnny is a big fan of Mendes, and it's clear how that appreciation translates onto the stage.

"It was an interesting choice, something different. We want to see things we've never seen before," Carrie Ann says of their unique take on the foxtrot. "It was an interesting artistic choice, well done."

The duo earn three 9s for a grand total of 27 out of 30. This puts them in a three-way tie for 1st place.

Skai wants to take the stage with fire, fun and fury, and this salsa routine certainly gives her that chance.

She and Alan owned the stage with a routine set to Missy Elliot's "Work It" and they delivered a wild number -- with a whole lot of lifts and tricks -- that actually impressed the judges quite a bit.

The pair earn 8s from Carrie Ann and Bruno and an 9 from Derek for a formidable total of 25 out of 30.

Derek: 8

Carrie Ann: 8

Bruno: 8

Grand Total: 24 out of 30.

Chrishell actually seems super happy about this score, so that's nice.

Well, we've finally gotten to the stage in the season where Gleb pulls out all the seductive stops for a truly sexy, sultry routine.

Amazingly, Chrishell and Gleb's seductive routine came with a Viennese Waltz set to Rihanna's "Love on the Brain" that really made hearts flutter.

Carrie Ann and Derek were wowed by the number, and had VERY specific critiques (which are always a good sign). Bruno has issues with their transitions, but seems to really want more.

However, we won't know how much the judges liked the dance until after the commercial break.

This week's dance is a particularly emotional one for Nelly, as he dedicates the routine to his late sister, Jackie.

In a pretaped video package that airs before his dance, Nelly gets emotional as he remembers his older sister, who died after a battle with Leukemia.

In her honor, Nelly dedicates his rumba -- set to "Nobody Knows” by The Tony Rich Project -- to her, and it's a heartfelt routine that serves as a sweet tribute.

The judges respected his efforts and were proud of his bravery, but had critiques for his technical performance.

Unfortunately, the scores didn't reflect the emotionality of the number. The pair earned three 7s for a total of 21 out of 30 -- which is a far cry from their stellar scores during last week's Villains Night.

Justina is bringing some tropical flair and neon color to the ballroom!

The sitcom star is letting her style and flair for high-energy, charismatic performance run wild as she and Sasha samba their hearts out.

Rocking bright orange ensembles, the pair set fire to the floor and bring a ton a fun to the stage.

"What I love is the way you make us feel while you dance, you're having such a great time," Carrie Ann says.

Derek says she looks "absolutely beautiful," while Bruno excitedly calls her a "tangerine dream."

The pair earn three 9s for their efforts, for a total of 27 out of 30!

The pair's scores were flawless, but they certainly weren't bad!

The pair earned three 9s across the board for a grand total of 27 out of 30.

Nev and Jenna earned pefect scores for their Villains Night dance -- so they've set the bar very high for themselves.

Tonight's the pair are dancing a Viennese Waltz set to "Stuck With U” by Ariana Grande & Justin Bieber, and it's beautiful, careful and graceful.

The pair owned the dance floor as they elegantly drifted around the stage, but was it enough to match last week's scores?

"You were oozing charm and charisma. And that confidence cameo show in the way you led," Bruno marvels.

"You move with such intention and clarity and it's such a joy to watch you dance," Derek adds.

Frustratingly, we won't know their scores until after the break.

Last week, Carrie Ann judged Kaitlyn and Artem exceptionally hard, and it's clear her harsh remarks impacted the pair emotionally.

So they're hitting the stage tonight with motivation, drive and a desire to prove to themselves that they deserve to be here -- and it shows.

Kaitlyn and Artem gave it their all for a fun, beaming jive routine set to "Don’t Stop Me Now” by Queen that really lit up the ballroom.

"That was a great, great jive," Derek shares.

Bruno says he wanted more "attack" and "drive" but still seems enthusiastic about the performance.

"I know last week was a tough week. But I think you've come back with grace and energy," Carrie Ann says.

The pair earn two 8s from Carrie Ann and Bruno and a 9 from Derek for a total of 25 out of 30.

With the election less that a full day away, DWTS is really turning up the heat with their efforts to get out the vote!

Each of the stars are rocking shirts about how they've voted, and it's the first thing Tyra says when she hits the stage in a very voluminous yellow gown.
