Dancing With The Stars 2021 saw Martin Kove become the first eliminated celebrity and Amanda Kloots top the leaderboard for the first time.

The hit ABC show returned for a second week on Monday and Martin, of Netflix's Cobra Kai was left at the bottom of the leaderboard again with a joint score of 28 out of 50.

In week one Martin's pasa doble scored just 13 out of 40, while his cha cha cha got him a 15 out of 40. The judges - Len Goodman, Derek Hough, Carrie Ann Inaba, and Bruno Tonioli - commented that although they'd greatly improved over the previous week and added more content, the moves weren't fully connecting.
