Priscilla Presley is booted off 'Dancing With The Stars'

Elvis Presley's former wife, Priscilla Presley, was voted off the massive US television programme 'Dancing With The Stars' last night (April 15).

The 62-year-old actress was eliminated through a voting process conducted by a three-judge panel and American viewers, leaving seven competitors behind to vie for the trophy.

James Blunt and Ozomatli performed on last night's results episode, which ended in Presley saying goodbye.

"This has been an incredible experience...I learned so much about myself and all the things I could do," she said.

Last season, Spice Girl Mel B made it to the final round of 'Dancing With The Stars'. The hit programme brings in an average of 20 million viewers each week.
