Macy Gray Too Distraught to Appear on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’

Following elimination from "Dancing with the Stars," contestants traditionally pay a visit to "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" When Jimmy introduced the two eliminated couples, only three of the four scheduled guests walked out on stage. Where was Macy Gray?

Macy's partner Jonathan Roberts said, "Macy's absolutely torn up about being eliminated." He explained, "She put her whole heart into the show. She feels like she let her fans down."

The Grammy winner was determined to add the mirror ball trophy to her collection. Her partner joked, "What's a Grammy compared to a mirror ball?"

The eliminated couple of Ashley Hamilton and his partner Edyta Sliwinska also appeared on the late night talk show.

Jimmy ended the segment by burning both Macy's and Ashley's dancing shoes to symbolize the end of their dancing careers.

After seeing Macy dance she deserved to be voted off. She was really stiff and she looked like she did not want to be there. She needs to stick to singing.

Jonathan is a fabulous dancer. Macy was very stiff. She seemed very hurt and like the comment below - it's the first week. Sure you don't want to be eliminated the first week but suck it up - others have.

I love Macy's voice, but that is what it is like when you are an artist -- a little too emotional. It was only the first week. It wasn't like she was on the show to the final elimination. I feel sorry for Jonathan Roberts. He deserves a great...

Get real. It must be nice to avoid difficult things in life. Buck up Macy. We all heard you were difficult to deal with on DWTS.
