Chynna Phillips - sour grapes or telling it like it is? The singer was kicked off Dancing With the Stars on Tuesday night, and Phillips says she would not call the show a dancing competition.
"It really does come down to the votes," Phillips told The Huffington Post. "And that's kind of sad because it's supposed to be a dance competition, but it's actually a popularity contest, which makes me kind of sad."
She continued, "You know, you have to have a little bit of faith that there are people out there who are truly voting for their favorite dance, not their favorite person, because it is a dance competition and people are working really hard. It would be very sad if that was undermined, and it looks to me like that keeps getting undermined."
Her partner, Tony Dovolani, agreed. "I've been on the show for 12 seasons, and Chynna has been a breath of fresh air for me. As much pull we have as teachers, in the end, it's all about the celebrity."
