Hoff the show: David Hasselhoff leaves 'Dancing'

LOS ANGELES -- He was king of the beach on "Baywatch," but David Hasselhoff didn't fare so well on "Dancing With the Stars."

The 58-year-old entertainer was the first celebrity voted off the new season of "Dancing With the Stars." Hasselhoff and his professional partner, Kym Johnson, were ousted from the program Tuesday after performing just one dance.

They landed in last place on Monday's episode for a cha-cha that judges roundly criticized.

Hasselhoff took the dismissal in stride, saying, "Hey, we tried," when his name was called.

Back to dance another week will be singer-actress Brandy; Jennifer Grey, Florence Henderson and Kyle Massey; athletes Rick Fox and Kurt Warner; reality stars Audrina Patridge and Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino; singer Michael Bolton; comedian Margaret Cho; and political daughter Bristol Palin.
