Former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay will not continue competing on the ninth season of Dancing With The Stars after suffering stress fractures in both feet, the tough Texan announced during Tuesday night’s Results Show.
Although the congressman and his professional partner Cheryl Burke earned enough votes with their samba performance to make it to Week 4, Tom has bowed out of the competition at the urging of physicans and series producers.
“No, I won’t [continue],” an emotional Tom explained. “You can’t practice, and if you can’t practice you’ll make a fool of yourself out here and I don’t want to do that to Cheryl because she’s so great.”
