Brandy on DWTS Elimination: "I Am Numb"
Brandy tells UsMagazine.com it still hasn't hit her that she was eliminated on Dancing With the Stars Tuesday.
"I am numb," she told Us after the show. "I mean, I gave it everything I had. And I don't have any regrets at all. I'm so proud of me, and I say that humbly."

Even though she received the lowest judges' scores, DWTS viewers voted to advance Bristol Palin to finals next week.
Brandy's partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy told Us it only proves how important viewer votes are.

He said it's "unfair" to discuss whether Brandy's elimination is the most shocking in the show's history.
"Tony's elimination with Audrina was shocking and Rick Fox's elimination was shocking -- and think back to Mario Lopez back in the day ... I feel like every season there are a couple of shocking eliminations," he said.

Looking back, Brandy told Us she'll never forget the experience.
"I just wanted people to enjoy our dancing and be inspired," she said. "That's why I have no regrets. I can walk away knowing that I gave everything that I had to give to this competition, and it feels really good to know that you guys are behind me."
Tell Us What You Think
240I am very pleased tonight that justice prevailed. My faith in America has been restored. Thank you America for taking a stand by voting for Jennifer Gray who is the best dancer on Dancing with the Stars. Brandy should have advanced to the top two. Kyle you did a great job. Bristol everyone is not a hater we just wanted the best dancers to win, you did your best but their were a lot of dancers who were more advanced then you. The votes are in America has spoken and justice has prevailed. Congradulations to everyone who participated and gave 100% of your time,sweat and hard work.
WHAT IF BRISTAL WINS?
WELL PEOPLE BETTER TAKE NOTICE TO THE UNDER BELLY OF THIS POLITICAL MOVE. SARAH PALIN WILL RUN HER ELECTION FOR PRESIDENT THE SAME WAY.
This is the down side of this show. She puts in the effort, gives an excellent performance, then learns it is not a dance contest. I realized it a year or so ago although, this is the worse season. Seldom watch the show now. Brandy's a professional and surely she knows show business.
I don't think it has anything to do with race and i am black. If anything its either because bristols mother or its tv drama for ratings and shock factor. Im onl;y upset because the show is called dancing with the stars and bristol isnt a star so she shouldnt even be on dancing with the stars. But i knew she was getting voted off. And i listen to alot of people who said they voted for brandy. they only voted once when you can vote 5 times. thats probably why she lost. Im a huge brandy fan but at the end of the day you got to be real with yourself. She lost and the viewers have who they wanted because if they really wanted brandy there more people would of voted like i did. and whack bristol wouldnt be there now.
So sorry to see Brandy go...she was the best one..Bristol is only left on because of who her mother is, we all know she cant dance....
Well I guess we know now that Bristol is getting by because of her mother. She sure can't dance. Hope she doesn't win, because she doesn't deserve it. Not when the pros are being eliminated, they ALL outdance her by a mile.
If she is numb then she is numb you dont have her feelings and You did not put your all into it, So please shut up. Bristol is way beneath Brandy and has no place in the finals. Stop sugar coating it She is horrible and can't dance.
Brandy was not the best? Her and jennifer sure are, and BRISTOL SURE ISN'T! You sound foolish!
BRANDY WAS ROBBED I HOPE THE VOTING SYSTEM IS CHANGED THAT IS MORE OBJECTIVE AND FAIR .B PALIN WAS REALLY BAD.I GUESS POLITICS IS EVEN ON THE DANCE FLOOR.BAD BAD STILL LOVE YOU BRANDY
Bristol Palin should not have been advanced. I thought this is supposed to be a competition, not a call in show. If it is the latter, then why bother to work hard to compete. I will not watch the finals and probably will not watch the next season. It is a sham.
I think that she should have at least made it to the finals. And please, can it be justified in having Palin going all the way to the finals. She should have been gone along time ago. Carla
In the end. It will be Kyle left standing, despite Jennifer being a perfect dancer. He will get the rest of the popularity vote because he is so lovable and entertaining.
It is pretty obvious to me at least that Max was the real reason Brandy is no longer there. He was so obnoxious and I am so glad not to see his face. Brandy it was not you. It was Max who sunk your popularity. Stop blaming Bristol. The minute Max mad fun of Kyles big belly grabbing it, I voted for Kyle immediately 5x's.
@ Jenna Ornat: girl beat it! u are only rite about 1 thing and thats, that it's not Bristols fault about the votes, but come on nah, the girl isn't a star and yea she has improved but she shoulda been gone! even if it wasnt Brandy who was in line, the girl shoulda been gone! And the Obama crack u made, not funny! it dont matter ir u liberal, republican, democrat, or unsure just leave it be! However, Brandy should still been there but o well, shyt happens!
Build a bridge and get over it. Brandy was not the best. Not Bristols fault who votes for her. Democrats are getting their fingers sore voting against her. Keep an eye on Obamas job you wanted, instead of Bristol.
I certainly agree with some of the comments. Bristol should not be where she is. I am really surprised she is still on the show. But that's okay. I stopped watching anyway since Brandy is no longer dancing. I knew from the door they want fat mama to win.
Brandy you were terrific. You just got caught up in politics. I think Bristol will win and we all know she is not very good. I dislike her attitute that she deserves to win because she has improved so much. I thought the show was about who danced the best not who had improved the most. Too bad that after Bristol wins and is off the show that the dancers can't do it again. Maybe it would be more fair. This was not fair and I expect Bristol to win whether she can dance or not.
Bristol is not a star and should have never been allowed on the show. Period. This season definitely had a polital ring to it and the tea party movement affected the outcome. Just like the election. As viewers we should show ABC who is in control. Boycott the show. Maybe they will think twice before pulling another shannigan like this. The show's title is "Dancing with the Stars". Then they should have only stars on the show. What a joke! ABC has just lost another viewer for this show.
Brandy...one door closes...one door opens...good luck!
