Kurt Warner's "Dancing With the Stars" stint is over, but the Super Bowl champ is still a crowd pleaser.

The studio audience cheered "M-V-P! M-V-P!" as Warner was eliminated from the hit ABC show Tuesday.

Warner and his professional partner came into the episode a point away from last place. Still, judges had praised the pair's two dances and noted Warner's improvement throughout the season.

Judges' scores are combined with viewer votes to determine which celebrity is ousted each week.

Warner joins previously eliminated contestants Rick Fox, David Hasselhoff, Michael Bolton, Margaret Cho, Florence Henderson and reality stars Audrina Patridge and Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino.

Competing in Monday's semifinal round will be actors Jennifer Grey and Kyle Massey, singer-actress Brandy and Bristol Palin.
