'Dancing With the Stars': The Judges' Vote Eliminates the First Celeb Contestant of Season 28

Dancing With the Stars has sent home its first celeb of season 28.

The dancing competition show returned for week two on Monday, after introducing fans to their new cast of strutting stars last week. Tonight's show saw season 28's first elimination, as well as the introduction of the new format change to the voting process, which includes text-based voting and a judges' save option for one of the bottom two couples.

Judges Len Goodman, Bruno Tonioli and Carrie Ann Inaba have already handed down some harsh critiques this season, but their biggest move of the season happened when it came time to chose between former NFL pro Ray Lewis and his partner, Cheryl Burke, and The Supremes' Mary Wilson and her pro, Brandon Armstrong.

This season of DWTS has started things off with some big ballroom shakeups. Sailor Brinkley-Cook stepped in for mom Christie Brinkley and held her own despite just a few days of practice. James Van Der Beek and Bachelorette Hannah Brown were early standout stars, while Sean Spicer and Lamar Odom struggled with their early dances.

Follow along below for a minute-by-minute account of DWTS' first elimination night of the season!
