Joanna Krupa was eliminated in the semifinals of the competition series "Dancing with the Stars" in Los Angeles Tuesday night.

"It has been such an amazing experience," the model said upon learning her fate. "Thank you to the judges. I've grown as a person. Thank you for giving me the opportunity.

"I had a great partner," she said, referring to Derek Hough.

Those slated to compete in the Season 9 finals next week, along with their professional dance partners, are singer Mya, reality TV personality Kelly Osbourne and entertainer Donny Osmond.

Melissa Joan Hart and Louie Vito, along with their professional dance partners, were eliminated from "Dancing with the Stars" in Los Angeles Tuesday night.

"That's the game," actress Hart said. "It's tough. I was hoping to make it one more week. My husband was coming next week with my kids, but that's all right. I'll go home to them now."

Later in the evening, snowboarder Vito was eliminated from the dance competition series.

"It's a lot harder than it looks," he said. "Dealing with frustration, nerves because you're doing something you're not comfortable with in front of millions and millions of people. And every day I got up there and danced, I was just proud of myself for getting out there."

Aaron Carter, Mark Dacascos, Michael Irvin, Joanna Krupa, Mya, Kelly Osbourne and Donny Osmond -- along with their professional dance partners -- are still in the running for the show's coveted mirrorball trophy.

Dancing with the Stars has announced its line up and it has two model citizens.  Sexy Joanna Krupa and Kathy Ireland will be strutting on the show for a bit in very skimpy costumes.  Dame Elizabeth Taylor warmed up her Twitter page again by putting down some sweet observations about the supermodel Kathy Ireland.

Ireland is set to appear on Dancing With the Stars next month. Said Dame Elizabeth: "I'm so excited to see Kathy Ireland on Dancing With The Stars! She is so beautiful."

She added: "To watch her in movement will be a golden chance to see beauty in action and grace, which is what that lady is all about. ... She is beauty personified because it glows from within and takes her on wing." Dancing with the Stars returns to ABC on September 21.
