LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Dancing drama! Who was the first couple booted off 'Dancing With The Stars' Tuesday night?



SPOILER ALERT!



Lolo Jones and Keo Motsepe were eliminated Tuesday night. Jones, who scored 12th out of 13 with the judges, did not get enough viewer votes to survive.



She found herself in the dreaded bottom two with famed fashion designer Betsey Johnson. Both had low scores, but viewers decided to keep the spunky 72-year-old designer.



Jones says she wishes she had had more time on the show, but it was just not meant to be.

"I'm devastated. I'm crushed," said Jones. "And I'm just, yeah, pretty crushed for him. You know, I take losses. I know how to take losses. I don't know how to take losses when somebody puts so much work into it on the other end. It's quite difficult."



Monday night, Lolo had a problem with a prop during the routine and she just couldn't recover. She lost her timing, confidence and her smile. She scored a 22 out of 40.



"Whatever happens, it happens for a reason," said Motsepe.



"I was trying to break down barriers and learn how to work with... well with someone else," said Jones. "I just wished I had more time to do that."



Twelve couples go on to compete next week on "My Jam Monday." The stars get to pick out their own songs. Tune in Monday night at 8 p.m. PT to ABC7.
