Lamar Odom has become the latest star eliminated from Dancing With The Stars.

The NBC Basketball player fell into the bottom two opposite Queer Eye’s Karamo Brown after failing to impress with his Vienesse Waltz.

Partnered up with Peta Murgatroyd, the pair performed to Kiss from a Rose by Seal, only earning a score of 20 from the judging panel.

The song itself seems to be a little cursed for the dancing show, seeing as David James performed to the same track this weekend in the UK version of Strictly, only to fall in the bottom two as well.

However, while David managed to save himself and Anneka Rice was eliminated in his place, Lamar wasn’t so lucky with Karamo beating him to the punch.

Karamo performed a Tango to Old Town Road (Diplo Remix) by Lil Nas X with Jenna Johnson.

As Lamar, who stands at 6ft 10in tall, hugged his 5ft7in partner, all the judges voted to keep Karamo and Jenna for being the strongest couple in the competition.

Speaking afterwards, he told ET Online: ‘I feel all right. I feel good. The sun will shine tomorrow. I’ll wake up, work out, move forward.’

Admitting that he would’ve liked to have continued, he added that he thought his 2015 accidental overdose – where he ended up in a coma – left memory damage that effected his ability to learn the moves.

‘My cognitive memory … just memorizing the dance routine was difficult at times, but I felt like I got better every week,’ he said. ‘It’s so crazy because I felt like this was my best dance tonight.’

Lauren Alaina, Sailor Brinkley-Cook, Hannah Brown, James Van Der Beek, Kate Flannery, Kel Mitchell, Ally Brooke and Sean Spicer join Karamo in holding their place in the competition.

Dancing With The Stars airs Monday on ABC in the US, with dances available on YouTube internationally shortly after.
