Keo Mostsepe dances with Lolo Jones on Dancing With The Stars on Sept. 15.

"We had some amazing dances, especially for the first week," said Julianne Hough on Tuesday's Dancing With the Stars results show, recapping Monday's premiere.

But someone wasn't amazing enough to dance a second week.

Which celeb had the dubious distinction of being the first one kicked off Season 19?

First, there was an hour-long show to get through!

Here's how it went:

First star safe: Antonio Sabato Jr. and his partner, Cheryl Burke.

Second star safe: Tavis Smiley and partner Sharna Burgess.

Next: Betsey Johnson

"You're in jeopardy," said host Tom Bergeron.

"In jeopardy?" said a dazed Johnson.

"You're not playing Jeopardy, you're in jeopardy," he cracked.

"Different show," added host Erin Andrews.

Then we had some behind-the-scenes moments and an encore from the leader-board topper Alfonso Ribeiro, with partner Witney Carson.

Smokey Robinson and Aloe Blacc performed a smooth duet of My Girl.

More couples deemed safe: Janel Parrish and Val Chmerkovskiy; Randy Couture and Karina Smirnoff, Alfonso and Witney, Sadie Robertson and Mark Ballas, Bethany Mota and Derek Hough, Tommy Chong and Peta Murgatroyd, Jonathan Bennett and Allison Holker.

Big highlight of the night: Everyone in the ballroom then got all hot and bothered watching the three new pros — Holker, Keo Motsepe and Artem Chigvintsev — perform a sexy number. The two guys were shirtless, showing off their buff torsos.

Joining Johnson in jeopardy:

Michael Waltrip and Emma Slater
Lea Thompson and Chigvintsev (What?! They won't stay there!)
Lolo Jones and Motsepe.

And in the end the eliminated celebrity was .... Lolo Jones!

"I know Betsey had the malfunction with the boa and that was disadvantage for her. Honestly, it was just steps on my part," said Jones. "I'm glad she's staying. She deserved to stay."

Motsepe, the show's first black dancer in 19 seasons, said he was "so proud" he got to show himself on TV.
