The 'Hoff' is off 'Dancing with the Stars'

LOS ANGELES (AP) - September 21, 2010 The 58-year-old entertainer was the first celebrity voted off the new season of "Dancing With the Stars." Hasselhoff and his professional partner, Kym Johnson, were ousted from the program Tuesday after performing just one dance.

They landed in last place on Monday's episode for a cha-cha that judges roundly criticized.

Hasselhoff took the dismissal in stride, saying, "Hey, we tried," when his name was called.

Back to dance another week will be singer-actress Brandy; actress Jennifer Grey, Florence Henderson and Kyle Massey; athletes Rick Fox and Kurt Warner; reality stars Audrina Patridge and Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino; singer Michael Bolton; comedian Margaret Cho; and political daughter Bristol Palin.
