‘Dancing With The Stars’ Recap: Carole Baskin Eliminated After Bombing In Lion Costume

Night three of Dancing With The Stars was Disney Night, the first themed night of the season. The dance floor was filled with our favorite Disney characters and classic Disney tunes.

Unfortunately, not everyone could share in the Disney joy. Tiger King star Carole Baskin earned a harsh rating from the judges for her performance to — you guessed it — The Lion King. Her majestic lion costume was not enough to save her from brutally low scores.

By the end of the night, Baskin and actress Anne Heche were the bottom two contestants and the decision was left to the judges. Both Derek Hough and Bruno Tonoli chose to save Heche. Baskin was graceful taking her leave, saying “My husband is going to be so happy I’m coming home,” while smiling and hugging her dance partner.
