The music has stopped for Dancing With the Stars co-host Brooke Burke-Charvet.
As reported by E! Online,
Burke-Charvet got word on Friday afternoon that her services would not
be needed for Season 18 of the ABC competition series, which premieres
March 17.
In a statement to E! Online,
Burke-Charvet said, “[I] understand the need for change considering the
position of the show at this juncture” — a seeming nod to DWTS‘ declining ratings and buzz.
She also went to Twitter to say: weird day….Shocking pre-season elimination #DWTS…ME. @Tom_Bergeron didn't even read my name. I won't be returning to the show this season.
“I’ve seen my fair share of shocking eliminations in the ballroom,” she added, “but this one takes the cake.”
A former model, Burke-Charvet first appeared on DWTS as a
contestant — and eventual winner — of Season 7, and then went on to
cohost with Tom Bergeron Seasons 10 through 17. In that capacity, she
succeeded Samantha Harris (who replaced Lisa Canning starting with
Season 2).
