Shannen Doherty has become the first celebrity to be eliminated from Dancing With The Stars 2010.

Shannen found herself in the bottom two alongside Baywatch star Pamela Anderson but the viewers opted to save Anderson over the Charmed actress.

On hearing the news, Doherty revealed her professional partner, Mark Ballas, was nursing a serious injury which would have prevented him from continuing on the series.

She said: “I think dancing isn’t really my thing. I’m an actor and it’s what I love to do. I did this for my dad and I did exactly what I wanted and I think it’s kind of fate that my partner is hurt and he’s out for six weeks and, to be honest, I wouldn’t want to go on without Mark.”
