'Dancing With the Stars' cuts a favorite

And now there are six ...

On Dancing With the Stars' Tuesday results show, there were the usual highlights and recaps from Monday's performance show, but in a very candid moment, we heard an angry Chaz Bono declare the show is unfair. He took particular aim at judge Bruno Tonioli.

"If you're an overweight woman in this competition, losing weight, they love you," said Chaz in a taped segment that showed his reaction right after Monday's performance. "If you're an overweight guy trying to do this competition and getting in shape, they penalize you for it, call you a penguin." He added, "Bruno makes comments every time ... like I'm some fat troll dancing with this beautiful woman every week, and I'm sick of it."

Bruno was not given a chance to reply.

There were performances by Kristin Chenoweth, Martina McBride, Corbin Bleu and the Macy's Stars of Dance troupe, and USA TODAY blogger Mark Ballas, Lacey Schwimmer and a group of young dancers.

Front-runners J.R. Martinez and Ricki Lake were deemed safe early in the show. They'll be back to dance on Halloween night. Nancy Grace was also told she was safe.

Co-host Brooke Burke Charvet talked to Hope Solo and her partner Maks Chmerkovskiy about his backtalk to judge Len Goodman. Solo's reaction? "I stand by my teammate. And I always love somebody who's opinionated and not afraid to state it. ... I'm proud."

Brooke asked Maks, "Aren't judges entitled to their opinion?"

His reply: "Of course, so are we!" said Maks.

In the end, it came down to Hope and Chaz. Who went home?

Chaz!

"I took so much away from this," he said. "This was an amazing journey that really pushed me and showed me I could do so much more than I thought I could."

When asked by host Tom Bergeron if he had any regrets, Chaz said, "I came on to this show because I wanted to show American a different kind of man. I know that if there was somebody like me on TV when I was growing up, my whole life would have been different. So I dedicate everything I did to all the people out there like me, especially the kids and teens who are struggling. You can have a wonderful great life and be successful and happy."
