"Bristol Palin was shown the door on this past Tuesday&amp;apos;s Dancing with the Stars -- but singer (and experienced dancer) Drew Lachey went home first, and vented backstage on Oct. 9 about that the single mom, 22, had outlasted him on the ABC smash.\r\nThe 98 Degrees crooner, 36 -- who won season 2 of DWTS -- vented backstage and &amp;quot;threw a fit,&amp;quot; a source tells Us Weekly.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;He was complaining that Bristol has no talent and no reason to be there,&amp;quot; the source continues of Lachey&amp;apos;s rant against Sarah Palin&amp;apos;s eldest, who made it to finale of season 11 back in 2010.\r\n\r\nAccording to the source, Lachey bellowed, &amp;quot;Am I on the right show? I thought this was Dancing with the Stars&amp;quot; and called Palin &amp;quot;a joke.&amp;quot;\r\nBut a show insider sticks up for the Not Afraid of Life: My Journey So Far author: &amp;quot;She&amp;apos;s not the best dancer, but she&amp;apos;s not terrible. She gets a bad rap because of her family.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I think I was optimistic about every week. I&amp;apos;d never been in the actual bottom two, so it was hard to process it all, but it is what it is,&amp;quot; Palin, mom to son Tripp, 3, said after her Oct. 16 elimination. &amp;quot;Good luck to everyone else.&amp;quot;\r\n&amp;quot;It really sucks!&amp;quot; Lachey told Us following his elimination one week earlier. &amp;quot;Do I think we&amp;apos;re going home too early? Absolutely. I don&amp;apos;t think there&amp;apos;s anybody in this ballroom who would disagree with that [and] I don&amp;apos;t think I&amp;apos;m speaking out of turn by saying that.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
