It may be called 'Dancing With The Stars,' but it takes more than fancy footwork to win. As predicted, Elisabetta Canalis was eliminated on last night's episode. She showed improvement n the dance floor, but fans weren't connecting with her. It could be her bad attitude she always seemed to carry around with her. And it looks like I'm not the only one who noticed. Canalis was in the bottom two with David Arquette, who is going to have to do more than just be enthusiastic. Personality only gets you so far.
