As often happens, it wasn't the celebrity with the lowest score who was booted Tuesday night from "Dancing With the Stars." In spite of having the lowest marks from the judges, Kendra Wilkinson — who scored 18 out of 30 points for her waltz on Monday night's classical-themed night — managed to survive another week. Instead, it was star boxer Sugar Ray Leonard who was given the one-two punch.

The hit ABC show had the dancers performing either the paso doble, waltz or Viennese waltz in front of a 46-piece orchestra on Monday. And in true dramatic fashion on Tuesday, the week's highest scorers, Chelsea Kane and Mark Ballas, were teased to be one of the possible couples heading home. The pair was placed in the bottom three.

Finally, after a performance by Jennifer Hudson, host Tom Bergeron announced that Leonard would be going home. The boxer, who had the second-lowest score of the week, was asked if he was surprised at his elimination.

"That's life and I fought a good fight. I'll cherish this moment — good friends, good show," the boxer said after learning he was heading home. "I love the spirit of the show. I love the people on this show."

The night before, judge Carrie Ann Inaba told him, "I don't think I've ever smiled that much. I absolutely fell in love with that dance and both of you."

His partner, Anna Trebunskaya, said working with his was a blast. "We had so much fun," she said. "It's just amazing that a boxer became a ballet dancer!"

Leaving the South by Southwest festival, Lavo New York and Las Vegas' Marquee in his wake, house DJ Chuckie has his sights set on the week ahead. With Miami Music Week now upon us, Chuckie plans to seize the opportunity to debut new material. Fans will be tickled to know the Dutch producer has tracks in the can with Kelly Rowland and T-Pain, but when MTV News caught up with him Friday in New York, Chuckie shared the achievement of which he's most proud.

"I did a Michael Jackson remix, which was really scary — to touch Michael Jackson vocals," Chuckie said. "I did this remix for this track 'Hollywood Tonight.' I couldn't say it for a minute: The label called me, and they said, 'You can't say nothing about this. It's kind of a secret project.' It's gonna come out anytime now."

"Hollywood Tonight" was originally produced by Teddy Riley for Jackson's posthumous Michael album, and Chuckie's mix of the song will be the sole official remix of the track.

"I will play it Miami," Chuckie revealed. "I told them this is the best week to launch the remix. So it feels really good. I'm the only one remixing that Michael Jackson track, and they are considering it a single. For me, especially, it's an honor to remix the King of Pop because he died on my birthday."

So, will the mix be a thundering Chuckie Dutch house banger or will it have a melodic progressive house feel, like his Marquee remix of Diddy-Dirty Money's "I Hate That You Love Me"? Well, according to the "Let the Bass Kick" producer, fans will be getting a healthy dose of both.

"I had to bring in the raucous," Chuckie confessed. "Yeah, I did the Chuckie flavor, but then again, I wanted to make it really musical, so I went progressive (house) on it."

Chuckie will be performing twice at Miami Music Week: at the Cr2 Records Party at Wall Lounge on Wednesday, and then headlining "No Sugar Added" at Nikki Beach on Friday.

Are you excited to hear Chuckie's remix of Michael Jackson's "Hollywood Tonight"? Let us know in the comments below!

How to be cheap like a local on Colaba Causeway

It?s hard to visit Mumbai and not spend time trolling the streets of Colaba Causeway for everything from silver jewelry and pashminas to kohlapuri slippers and fake antiques.

Walking down the Causeway, or Sucker's Mile, as I prefer to call it, is where you find plenty of bargains -- presuming you know how to haggle already. And two days' practice doesn't make you anywhere near perfect at haggling. We've been discovering the nuances of this art for years.

The larger stores, however, happily welcome Mastercard, Visa and naive tourists with a "No Bargaining" sign and a smile. 

Therefore it's still best to go with someone local, who can help bring prices down by fistfuls of rupees, if you?re buying stuff off the street stalls.
