Dancing With The Stars shock as fan favourite is eliminated in emotional semi-final - and the celebrities headed for the Grand Finale are revealed

Dancing With The Stars delivered a bombshell elimination on Monday night as fan favourite Mia Fevola was sensationally sent packing during the second semi-final. Despite a near-flawless foxtrot with partner Gustavo Viglio, the glamorous model and influencer fell short of a spot in the Grand Finale after the judges' scores were combined with the studio audience vote. The result stunned viewers, with Mia delivering a heartfelt farewell as she reflected on her journey: 'My confidence has grown so much, and I'm proud of how far I've come as a dancer. 'It's been the best experience of my life, honestly. The production, the cast, and my partner. It unlocked a part of me... it's been amazing.' Her emotional exit means Felicity Ward, Kyle Shilling, and Shaun Micallef will now join Michael Usher, Brittany Hockley, and Trent Cotchin in Monday night's star-studded Grand Finale.

Home and Away star Kyle Shilling kicked off the show with a high-energy, country-themed quickstep alongside Lily Cornish. After earning a perfect score last week, Kyle had big shoes to fill, but a few stumbles left him frustrated. Still, the judges awarded him 29 points and encouraged him not to be so hard on himself. Next up, comedian Felicity Ward wowed the crowd with a fiery salsa with partner Aric Yegudkin. Bursting with energy, Felicity lit up the dance floor and scored an impressive 33 points, topping the leaderboard for the night. Then came Fevola, who delivered a technically brilliant foxtrot. The judges praised her precision, though Craig Revel Horwood urged her to dig deeper emotionally. Her score of 31 wasn't enough to carry her through. Finally, Shaun Micallef closed out the show with a cha-cha full of quirks, charm, and horse-inspired dance moves. His signature humour had the ballroom in stitches, earning him 30 points and a spot in the finale. Felicity Ward, Kyle Shilling, and Shaun Micallef will now join Michael Usher, Brittany Hockley, and Trent Cotchin in Monday night's star-studded Grand Finale. All pictured Before the nail-biting results were revealed, viewers were treated to a spectacular group number from the Brent Street dancers. On Sunday night, the show said goodbye to Olympic boxer Harry Garside, who was eliminated just short of making it to the finals. Harry opened the show with a steamy Mad Max-inspired Tango. While the judges agreed the style wasn't his strongest, they praised his effort and commitment to the performance before scoring him 20 points. With the audience vote combined with the judges' scores, it was Harry and his partner Siobhan Power who were sent home, just short of making the top five. Reflecting on his journey, Harry said: 'It's been so much fun. It's such an amazing process. 'To share this with Siobhan, and to learn how to dance from her, like how cool is that? So fingers crossed it helps my boxing, I'm sure it will.'

MasterChef fan favourite sent packing in shock elimination, as top five revealed

One of the fan favourites on this season of MasterChef Australia has been eliminated just shy of the grand final. Sunday's high-stakes episode saw the remaining contestants battle it out to make the top five, with debut MasterChef winner Julie Goodwin and most recent victor Nat Thaipun forming part of the special-look judging panel. The current season of the long-running Ten cooking series has seen past stars return to the kitchen for another shot at the title. In Sunday's elimination, Goodwin and Thaipun set the contestants a challenge of creating a meal with ingredients they each used in their respective winning dishes. With just 60 minutes on the clock, Depinder and Ben ultimately came out on top, joining last week's immunity winners Callum and Laura to make up the top four. Sarah and Jamie were then sent to a second round for the final spot, tasked with whipping up yet another dish from Goodwin and Thaipun's pantries. Sarah, who recently went public with her relationship with fellow MasterChef star Declan, set herself the almighty feat of making Pork Assiette – which required her to cook pork three different ways in just 60 minutes. Jamie, meanwhile, leant into classic flavours with roast chicken and vegetables. After a last-minute hurdle, in which Jamie was forced to abandon his failed gnocchi, the first-time returnee was ultimately victorious over Sarah, with the judges unable to look past her undercooked pork belly. The third-time MasterChef competitor, and runner-up in season 14, broke down in tears upon realising she just missed out on the top five, as the judges rallied around her. 'Sarah. You are so unique,' Jean-Christophe Novelli said. 'It is a pleasure watching you cooking. Every single dish you came out with were very different, and please, do not change. 'It's just a bad day in the office. You are so credible. Trust me. I really admire you.' While Sarah didn't make it to the final, the TV cook did leave the show with a new love in her life, Declan, who was eliminated several weeks ago. The pair revealed their secret relationship to Stellar in June, saying they began dating during filming of the latest season in Melbourne. 'We instantly got along and started spending a lot of time together,' Declan, 27, said. 'Nothing was ever rushed or forced – we just enjoyed spending time together. And Sarah, being from Melbourne, knew all the places to go. So we'd go to the beach, or go-karting, and we went out for lots of dinners.' It was Declan who made the first move on Sarah, who has a 14-year-old son, as she faced elimination for the first time. 'I was [panicking]. 'Oh sh*t. I've been spending all this time with this bloody amazing chick and now she might be leaving,'' he told the magazine. 'And so, as she's walking into the elimination [challenge], I said, 'Sarah, can I ask you something? Would you like to go on a date with me?' And she just looked at me and said, 'You're a bloody idiot!'' MASTERCHEF AUSTRALIA'S TOP FIVE REVEAL THEIR HIGHLIGHTS: Ben Macdonald, New Zealand 'Travelling to Doha and winning immunity cooking in an Alain Ducasse restaurant. Unforgettable,' Macdonald said. Callum Hann, South Australia 'All the way back on day one, I was lucky enough to be the leader of the Green Team in the Gordon Ramsay service challenge, and we won! Afterwards, Gordon said to me 'if this is how you run your restaurants, I can't wait to make a reservation'. To get that positive reinforcement from one of the best chefs in the world was a pretty incredible feeling. 'Another great memory was our trip to Doha and cooking with so many ingredients in the desert that I've never heard of or seen before. Winning the first immunity challenge of International Week was incredible. 'Cooking with Hugh Allen and Vue de Monde, with another ingredient I wasn't familiar with, was also a very special experience.' Depinder Chhibber, NSW 'My proudest achievement would be winning immunity in the final challenge in Doha. I had a rough week so winning that immunity just made it all worth it. 'My fondest memory is the Dough-Fest team challenge where Callum and I were safe [with immunity] and we got to roam the MasterChef Garden and taste everyone's the dishes.' 'My fondest memory of the season far is definitely winning a business class flight to Doha in the travel challenge. Getting to travel in style with some of my good friends was pretty wild.'

‘Sad that the Short Kings are gone': Calgary brothers eliminated from Amazing Race Canada

A Calgary team featuring two brothers were eliminated from The Amazing Race Canada Tuesday night. Calgary residents Esosa and Osas Igbinosun learned their fate at the end of the episode from host Jon Montgomery, who informed them they were out, after finishing with the slowest time in an elimination challenge. 'Osas. Esosa. You are the last team to arrive,' Montgomery said. 'I am sorry to tell you this, but you have been eliminated from the race.' 'OK,' Esosa said. 'I guess that's it then.' 'Thank you for bringing amazing energy to this race,' Montgomery said, 'and I wish you two nothing but the best of luck in what comes next.' On social media, the news hit fans of the 'Short Kings' as the brothers were known, hard. 'I'm so sad that the Short Kings are gone,' said @threestarpet on the Amazing Race Canada Instagram page. 'They were such a charismatic pair!' 'So sad that my two favs are out. Loved them,' said @shanaanderson12. 'Even though it is the race, it hurts to see Osas and Esosa leave because they were fun and entertaining and I honestly wish it was a non-elimination leg,' said @ The brothers, who won fans across the country for their sense of humour as they occasionally got lost en route to completing the latest challenge, were emotional and philosophical about being eliminated.

(Photo credit: CTV) In a Wednesday morning interview with CTV, they were asked about their goal of paying tribute to their late father and also inspiring others to dream big. 'We did what we wanted to,' said Osas. 'and definitely being on this show was an accomplishment because there's lots of people who applied -- so we're definitely proud of ourselves and we know our dad would be proud, too.' 'I think we just wanted to put ourselves out there,' said Esosa, 'so that people would be, hey, you don't always have to put yourself in a box. 'Just go out, see Canada for what it is, make friendships along the way and just enjoy the whole experience. 'I know we had a good race, even if it wasn't as long as we wanted it to be, but we definitely had a wonderful experience.' The Amazing Race Canada continues next Tuesday night on CTV when the race moves north to Tuktoyaktuk.

MasterChef Australia: Fan favourite fails to make the top five in heartbreaking exit after disastrous mushroom dish

Beloved MasterChef Australia veteran Snezana 'Snez' Calic had to hang up her apron on Sunday. The 40-year-old from Victoria, who first appeared on season 16 of the cooking competition, faced a 90 minute cooking challenge alongside the six other survivors of the Back to Win season. But after a disastrous first round when her aioli failed to come together, Snez was suffered from a lack of time. After serving up a mushroom ragu with polenta the judges were left unimpressed. Judge Andy Allen complained that the pine mushrooms were dry. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'That impacted the taste and the textures,' he said as he announced that it was Snez the judges had decided to send home. He continued, 'And in the end the lack of time showed on the plate.' 'I just wanted to survive day one,' an emotional Snez said, adding, 'how did i make it to the final six.' She later reflected on her experience. 'I felt so good, even though I was eliminated, I felt good,' the chef told Ten. 'I achieved a lot, I cooked with these legends, and I really, genuinely appreciate the judges. It was such an emotional moment and I'm so, so happy about it.' Last Sunday night, season three's Alana Lowes cooked her final dish in the Doha kitchen as she went head-to-head with Snezana, Laura Cassai and Sarah Todd in a 'dual duel'. The cook-off paired contestants together to battle it out against their opponent, cooking with the same main ingredient in a heated elimination challenge. The least impressive dish in each duo sent its chef onto the second round, fighting it out again for a place in next week's lineup. The challenge placed the contestants literally in a face-off showdown behind benches that were set up opposite each other, upping the tension in the kitchen. Speaking to Ten of her elimination, Alana said that her second time around in the MasterChef kitchen was filled with food, fun and, above all, fierce friendships, especially with fellow participant Snezana. 'I felt like this was a second opportunity to get into this kitchen and just really have fun with it, enjoy every moment,' she said. 'I would have loved to have gone further, but I just feel so satisfied with what I achieved and the dishes that the judges absolutely raved about,' she added.
