‘Dancing With The Stars’ Cast Gets Smaller: Alfonso Ribeiro Is The ‘Last Dude’ Standing

"Dancing With The Stars" season 19 is getting more and more dramatic for both the cast members and fans of the show.

The latest dancers in the cast to be eliminated were comedian Tommy Chong and his partner Peta Murgatroyd, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Chong was reportedly the oldest contestant ever to compete in "Dancing With The Stars" semifinals.

"I love music and I've got rhythm. All they needed was to have someone like me to show them how to use that rhythm," stated Chong.

He continued, "I love dancing. I loved learning all the dances. You can't name one dance where I would say I hated it. There's a lot of dances that were difficult, but the dance world is so special. If you look at the feet, you can't tell how old people are."

Although Chong, who was a fan favorite, was eliminated, fellow cast member Alfonso Ribeiro reportedly became the last remaining male contestant competing for a spot in the finale despite his recent back and groin injury.

"You know when you hurt you back and you can't really breathe? Yeah, I'm right there again," stated Ribeiro of his injury.

He continued,"It's so hard because I can't even pick up my kid. The only time I really get to cuddle with him is when lying down in bed and he can crawl on me a little bit."

The "Dancing With The Stars" contestant stated that he was able to get through this week's show with the help of "a lot of great doctors," and now that he's going to the next round, "The Fresh Prince of Bel Air" star is ready to win it.

"We're in this to try and win it, so I will do what I have to do and I will deal with whatever I have to do with to try to win this," Ribeiro said.

He added, "I'm the last dude here, but we want to be in the finale, so we're going to do everything we can to get there."
