HOLLYWOOD, Calif. - Helio Castroneves survived the first elimination on "Dancing with the Stars: All-Stars," but he and partner Chelsie Hightower face a difficult dance next week.
The judges gave the couple 21.5 of 30 points for their foxtrot this week, which, along with fan voting, made them safe from elimination Tuesday night.
"I'm very relieved. Everybody's so good," Castroneves said. "I want to thank the fans because without them, certainly I wouldn't be able to be here."
Castroneves, who won season 5 of the celebrity ballroom dancing competition in 2007, and Hightower will be dancing the Jive next week.
"We have the Jive, so it's going to be a very fun, fast-paced, upbeat dance," Hightower said. "We start practicing in the morning."
But Castroneves is a big more wary: "(It) wasn't one of my very strong dances five years ago. It was not bad, but it wasn't strong and hopefully Chelsie can help me out and improve me."
"Baywatch" siren Pamela Anderson was the first to be dropped from the competition
Emmitt Smith and Cheryl Burke received the highest total score from the judges for their Cha-Cha-Cha.
