Sadly, Aaron Carter was voted off ABC’s Dancing With the Stars on Tuesday night.

It came down to Aaron Carter and Kelly Osbourne, but it could be Carter’s Foxtrot on Monday night that sent him home.  Aaron and his partner, Karina Smirnoff, only managed to score a 23 out of 30 on the dance on Monday night, the lowest score of the night.

Upon his exit, Carter held his head high and said:

“One thing that I will always remember from this competition is the lessons I’ve learned. I’ve grown some much with your compliments and your criticisms, so thank you. Thank you for helping me be able to grow on this show.”

Judge, Len Goodman, offered up some emotional and encouraging words to Carter upon his exit, saying:

“I think the dedication that you have shown week after week is absolutely fantastic.  I think you’re an inspiration to all young people that anything is possible, and if you were my son, I would be so proud of you.  But more important, you be proud of yourself, because you’ve been great.”

Joining Kelly Osbourne in the semifinals are Joanna Krupa, Donny Osmand and Mya.  The four couples will be required to dance one unlearned Ballroom and Latin dance from Weeks 1-6 with a 15-second solo and one more dance which has not been revealed.
