The former Glee star got the first perfect score of the season when she did a rumba to TLC’s “Waterfalls” with partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy.
After a rain of boos came down from the audience following host Tom Bergeron's announcement of her elimination, he said: “That was the biggest reaction to someone getting kicked off that I have ever heard!”
Morris was considered a favorite in the competition, but many were against her from the start because of her professional dancing background.

“It is a weird thing because you know it is reality television and so many things can go wrong,” she said. “You are trying to be hopeful and have a really great experience. I was expecting it to go either way. I was happy to be there. When it happened, I was like, ‘It is what it is.’ I just had a great time."
