16. The gal who was voted off of American Idol had a breakdown in front of nation of viewers. Shannon also broke down and there was a feeling that it had to do with her temperant and not her dancing. All I can say is that she is with a wonderful and supportive man who will help her get over this. Is it really fair to take a human being and make them perform under extremely difficult situations and expect them to not react. Rat in a cage comes to mind. That's two mental breakdowns in two days on two very popular shows. Not a great track record. Should we be learning something from this? accidents? mental breakdowns? Could they give them two weeks to learn a dance maybe?

17. Hey, from reading the comments, It seems to be " Slam the emotionally Weak Day" or is it "Ignoramous's Aynonomous Day" All I can say is people don't become beeochs without a reason behind it. Survival of the fittest.....Down with the weak and stomp on them while they're down!!!! Good Job first 12 commenters. Your mean temperant is showing, better pull up your slip, you may be committing the same crime she did. I support you Shannon. Forget about the crap and rumba your way in paradise gf!! Party on!!

18. Her dancing was very wooden even this week. IMO she picked a dress that she was able to manipulate with her hands so that it gave the illusion that she was shaking her hips. I didn't vote for her because of her lack of dancing skills and her craptastic attitude last week. She is such a sore looser!!

19. I'am glad she is off the show,but not Derek.I couldn't believe how she was complaining and crying,because of what the Judges said to her.She reminded me of a spoiled child, not getting their own way. I haven't seen anyone else on DWTS act
like she did.

21. I have seen her on the Lifetime channels in various movies. Who else had a breakdown #18?? You mean Brook? They all cry on that show I would hardley call it a breakdown. I think it was just her time to go, although I liked Brooks personality she at least seemed like a sincere girl. Down to earth. It was a great opportunity for her. Shannon on the other hand really got on the wrong side of the viewers when she didn't like the judges scores last week. That did her in.

22. You know how the you're-just-fat-and-jealous posse always comes out here on TMZ if you're a woman and you post a comment about any woman acting or dressing inappropriately? Well, Shannon would fit right into that posse, because people don't like her and she just can't understand that it's not because they're jealous of her, it's because she's turned out to be unlikable. She has an attitude problem, and well, she really was the worst dancer of those that remained. You can look pretty at first glance but the looks fade into the background when your attitude and personality aren't so nice.

Ultimately she got booted off because she's awkward and gawky when she dances, like a baby giraffe. It was her time.

25. Why cant the poor girl accept she cant dance. The judges and viewers voted and she was the one with the lowest votes so she was booted off. This girl will do anything to stay in the spotlight. Check out the DWTS message boards the fans are sick of her tantrums and whiny ways. She is not an A-list star never has been never will be. Please be gracious and just GO AWAY!!!

26. I voted her off cause I couldn't stand her whiny, no can dance, fake ass.

I like Derek. Hope she doesn't drag him down. Maybe he'll get a good partner next year.

BTW, wear a condom, Derek.

28. I think they're just using each other for sex.
She's on the rebound and he's just a horny 22 year old.

29. Be careful dude. She may be hearing her biological clock ticking and looking for a baby daddy.
