Classical Week has come and gone, and so has Jaleel White. He's been up and down throughout this competition, and this was definitely a down week. It's still no fun to say goodbye to him. He's a great dancer and a genuinely funny guy.

The dance duel was a rumba, and Roshon's was judged superior by all three judges. It was a tough call for Carrie Ann at least, who called Roshon and Jaleel roughly equal, and Bruno and Len agreed that both couples danced well.

Jaleel confessed that he thought he would only last about three dances into the season and said that his friends on the show and his fans helped him get as far as he did. He even praised Roshon and called on Len to "give him a 10." (Jaleel did get in a lovely jab at Len just before the dance duel. He said, "Len is the old guy outside the grocery store who won't give the kid any money for candy." Then he called Jaleel the kid outside the candy store.)

Here's a look at how the remaining stars did this week:

William Levy

In spite of the fact that he was dancing on an injured ankle, William turned in a top-notch Viennese waltz. The judges praised him for tuning in to his emotional side. William was also the team leader for the group paso doble and he and Cheryl absolutely sizzled out on the floor.

Donald Driver

Donald's Viennese waltz was full of crazy dips and spins, but he made it work. The judges had nothing but praise for his performance and complimented both his passion and his technical precision. Donald more than held his own against William in the paso doble – he's a real contender at this point.

Katherine Jenkins

Katherine's Grecian rumba was gorgeous, if a little bit understated. She and Mark moved beautifully together, as always, and Katherine's lines were gorgeous. It seemed like she had a little more fun with the group Argentine tango, where she and Mark turned up the intensity. Katherine doesn't show any signs of slowing down!

Maria Menounos

Maria's paso doble earned her this season's first perfect score from the judges. It was bold, dramatic and never let up for a minute. Maria and Derek also turned in a fierce performance in the group paso doble. These two are magic together and the sky's the limit.

Melissa Gilbert

Melissa's Argentine tango was a winner with the crowd and a loser with the judges. Carrie Ann called the routine "Cirque du Soleil gone wrong" because of all the lifts. Melissa did better with the group paso doble, but it was still a rough week for her. It's hard to see her lasting much longer in this competition.

Roshon Fegan

Roshon danced two tangos in one night. His solo Argentine tango got mixed reviews from the judges. Bruno called him out for wobbly legwork, but Carrie Ann gave him a hug and said "welcome back." Roshon and Chelsea distinguished themselves in the group tango. It was tough to see Roshon have to dance his way back into the game once again.

Who needs to step it up: Melissa

On Monday, TMZ reported that "Khloe & Lamar" would not return for a third season so that Lamar Odom could revive his ailing basketball career. Tuesday, the gossip website adds that Khloe Kardashian is negotiating with E! to star in a new spin-off show without her husband.

Bing: More about 'Khloe & Lamar'

"E! wants desperately to stay in business with her," the report claims, quoting an unnamed network source as saying: "We're definitely in the Khloe Kardashian business."

Also: What shows will be returning next season?

The show would resemble "Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami," according to TMZ, and thus could involve one or more additional Kardashians.

Meantime, Khloe placed her own spin on the news of "Khloe & Lamar's" demise, suggesting to Entertainment Tonight that the show could return as soon as this fall.

"Our show is not cancelled," she said on Monday night. "Lamar and I have chosen to take a break this summer."

Odom added: "The issue at hand is we just want to be happy. We'll take our time and we'll get back to it when it's time."

The 32-year-old hopes to play on this summer's Olympic team and return to the NBA next season.

"Khloe & Lamar" airs Sundays at 10 p.m. ET/PT on E! 

Special to MSN TV

Best buddies Mark Jackson and William "Bopper" Minton made up one of "The Amazing Race"'s most engaging teams in memory. They were funny, kind, devoted to each other, and resolute even in the face of the most challenging Bollywood dance. Despite powering through this week's tasks, the pair couldn't make up time lost during the previous episode -- and exited the race in fifth place. We spoke to the team -- a shoo-in for an All-Stars edition if ever there was one -- about going back to Kentucky, battling unemployment, and whether Art and J.J. will make good on that Pitstop promise to share their winnings.

Bing: More about 'The Amazing Race' | Photos: Meet the teams

MSN TV: What's it been like, coming home to this reception? 

Bopper: It's meant the world to us. It's been absolutely overwhelming. Our county is so proud of us. We can't tell you how much we appreciate it.  

I found it really affecting, Bopper, when you said that being on the race had opened up your eyes to the world around you.  

Bopper: The place where we live is one of the poorest counties in the nation. We're just poor, simple folk. But I got to see first-hand what true poverty really is, and it made me appreciate everything I do have. We were just going down the road in India, and we walked past this man who had to walk on his knees. His feet were curled up behind his back, and this man was still working. His knees looked like elephants' feet. For us Americans, we're kind of spoiled here. He was severely disabled, and he was still working. I cried when I saw that, that was so touching. 

I know you first applied for season 12, but were just cast this season. Do you have any idea why you made the cut this time around? 

Bopper: I have no idea. I was just sitting here with my daughter, feeding her turtle, and there was a message from the race telling me to call them back. I called Mark, and he scurried over here, and we called them. 

You guys talked candidly about living in poverty on the show. 

Mark: We speak the truth. We don't bite our tongues. I lost my job when I got back. We did see poverty all over the world. The only difference between them and us is we live in the USA, and it shouldn't be like that here. 

Did you get a big welcome-home party when you got back to Clay County? 

Bopper: Nothing yet. We've just been going around to the schools, thanking the kids for their support. We talk about bullying with them. We just want everybody to know that our kids are the future no matter what. We have a terrible drug problem here. If you're 25, and you're doing drugs, you're an adult. But we've got to start with the kids. Me and Mark were saying that what we'd like to do is see if CBS can help us with the trip we won [for winning a leg]. We'd like to auction that trip off, to help some needy children here in Manchester [Ky.]. Me and Mark would take that trip, and it'd be over in five days. 

Mark: Me and Bopper have been around each other enough. It's not fair for Bopper to go with his wife, or Mark to go with his girlfriend. Why not get rid of that trip? 

Bopper: These kids really need shoes and shirts. They should go to school feeling proud, like other kids aren't going to make fun of them this year. We'd give 100 percent of the money to those kids. 

J.J. and Art said they'd give part of their winnings to a fund for your daughter's health problems, Bopper. Did that actually happen? 

Bopper: I'm not going to hold them to that, but they insist that when payday comes, they're definitely going to give my child a third of their winnings. 

Mark, you said you lost your job when you returned from the race. How are you doing now? 

Mark: It's a struggle. It was a shock. I never thought it would happen. I lost my job. I didn't lose all my bills. 

Bopper: The job opportunities here are slim to none. You either have the coal mine or McDonald's. That's why we put our heart and soul into the race. CBS gave us the opportunity of a lifetime 

Mark: We enjoyed it. We weren't running a hectic, scatterbrained race. We could never afford to do something like that, no matter how long we saved up. 

When will we see you guys in All-Stars? 

Mark: I'll tell you what, if they call us right now, and they're on call waiting, I'd hang up on you right now. 

Bopper: I wouldn't even stop to pack a backpack. I'd just go naked. 

"The Amazing Race" airs Sundays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.

Surprise, surprise! The first 30 of the season went out to Maria Menounos, not Katherine Jenkins! I wouldn't have guessed it, but I'm sure not surprised. Maria has been fantastic almost every week and her paso doble was just plain unstoppable.

That said, Classical Week wasn't my cup of tea. It's strange watching dances like the rumba set to string music, and although there were some amazing performances like Maria's paso doble, there were also some duds. Melissa had an especially bad night, and Roshon and Jaleel both ran into trouble as well. It was enough to leave me hoping that the dance duel will feature "regular" music.

Last Night on TV: Watch recaps | Video: Watch clips and more

We also saw the first team dances this week. The first, an intense tango, put Maria, Katherine, Roshon and Jaleel through their paces. Their individual solos were precise and tightly crafted, and the brief part at the end where all four couples danced in sync was really something. Len called Maria and Roshon the standout couples of the group, but didn't seem to love the dance. Bruno praised the choreography and called Roshon "a revelation."

Donald, Melissa and William danced a smoldering paso doble, and only Melissa kept her shirt on. The tango was powerful, but this paso doble never quit. We saw spins, lifts, drama, passion and some excellent technique to boot. Bruno called the dancers superheroes, and Carrie Ann could only laugh and call the dance "ridiculous to watch." Len, surprisingly, had the killer one liner: He said the performers "undressed to impress." Not too bad!

Here's a quick look at this week's performances:

Katherine Jenkins

Katherine's Grecian rumba was breathtaking. She and Mark moved beautifully together, and the slower classical music really highlighted her precision and control. Len complimented Katherine for staying "on rhythm" in a song without rhythm and Bruno called her an "unattainable object of desire." He seemed disappointed by a total lack of raunchiness in Katherine's admittedly demure rumba. Carrie Ann commented on Katherine's beautiful lines and perfect placement, but cited a lack of passion on her part.

Rumba: 27/30

Tango: 27/30

Total: 54/60

Melissa Gilbert

Melissa's spirited Argentine tango had the crowd on its feet. The routine was difficult, interesting and just plain fun to watch, but the judges weren't having it. I was worried for Melissa with Maks dancing on an injured ankle. Bruno complimented Melissa's drive and energy, but found her execution choppy and frenzied. Carrie Ann was even more blunt. She called the routine "Cirque du Soleil gone wrong" because of all the lifts. Len was gentler, but did say Melissa's performance lacked dance quality. Their harsh words and mediocre scores could leave Melissa trying to dance her way back into the competition come elimination time.

Argentine tango: 21/30

Paso doble: 26/30

Total: 47/60

William Levy

William too danced on an injured ankle. His Viennese waltz was slow and stately, and William did a fantastic job selling it emotionally. His frame was excellent and his movements were easy and unstudied. He even stayed in hold with Cheryl in spite of the crazy height difference between them! The judges didn't have too much to say about the technical content, but they sure loved the dance. Carrie Ann praised William for bringing romance to life, and Len said he was transported to Austria, if not actually Vienna. Even Bruno was serious, calling the routine touching and beautiful. A coup for William.

Viennese waltz: 27/30

Paso doble: 26/30

Total: 53/60

Roshon Fegan

Roshon's Argentine tango was a huge departure from his usual hip-hoppy, lighthearted dances. He definitely commanded out on the floor, and there were some good spins in the routine. He looked shaky on of the lifts, and his posture could have been better at times. Len called the dance "clean and confident" overall, but Bruno commented on his wobbly legwork. Carrie Ann gave Roshon a hug and welcomed him back to the competition. She at least doesn't expect him to have to face the elimination dance-off. Let's hope his fans prove her right.

Argentine tango: 25/30

Tango: 27/30

Total: 52/60

Donald Driver

Donald's Viennese waltz was lighthearted and energetic. After a rather slow and serious night, the crowd warmed right up to it. The routine was full of crazy dips and spins, and Donald really sold the show. The waltz was good from a technical perspective as well: His frame was excellent, and he more than kept up with Peta. Bruno praised his sweeping passion, and Carrie Ann commented on his precision. Len complimented Donald's footwork. This was an amazing performance from Donald.

Score: 27/30

Paso doble: 26/30

Total: 53/60

Maria Menounos

Maria's vampiric paso doble was that rare routine that's gimmicky, but totally works anyway. The routine was bold, dramatic and never let up for a minute. Maria and Derek moved perfectly together, and her rhythm and control were both excellent. She also brought the necessary intensity to the routine. Carrie Ann praised Maria for being "on fire," and Len was a fan of the tension between Maria and Derek. Bruno called her "the queen of the damned and the queen of the night," and praised her storytelling.

Paso doble: 30/30

Tango: 27/30

Total: 57/60

Jaleel White

Jaleel's "Downton Abbey"-esque Viennese waltz was quiet and moving. He was very expressive throughout the routine and did an excellent job in hold with Kym. Len said he "liked it enough not to be cruel," which seemed pointlessly mean, and then criticized Jaleel's footwork. Bruno commented on Jaleel's loose arm work and an overall lack of content to the routine. Carrie Ann liked the storytelling aspect of the routine but agreed with Len on Jaleel's wild arms. Tough words from the judges, but Jaleel's score wasn't too bad.

Viennese waltz: 24/30

Tango: 27/30

Total: 51/60

Who won over the judges: Maria
Who won over the crowd: Maria

Down to the final eight on "The Voice," it has somehow, somewhere along the way, become anyone's game. Hot damn, how'd that happen? (Maybe around the time James Massone got blown out?)

Bing: More about 'The Voice' | Photos: Meet the contestants

One singer from each team will be gone by Tuesday night, and while I can happily tell you who I want it to be, I can't tell you who it will be, largely due to the fact that they all did "their thing" so well.  What's more, if the Teams Adam and Cee Lo performance that took place midway through Monday night's episode is any indication of what could happen should they tour this summer, then by all means, gang, book it. (Teams Blake & Christina not so much.)   

Last Night on TV: Watch recaps | Video: Watch full episodes and clips

But, as always, first things first:

Tony Lucca opened the show, and was totally in the zone on "How D'Ya Like Me Now?" When he took the stage I was looking (hoping) for his guitar, but Lucca was feelin' it and the unexpected fancy footwork was welcome, even by Christina. She remains (passive) aggressive when it comes to Lucca though, and Carson cutting her off made things even more awkward. Oh, and Lucca and Levine covering Britney tunes (which she suggested)? Great download, especially if Levine took on "Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman." 

Erin Willett took "Without You" down tempo-wise, but her vocals, and the emotion they gave way to, was a thing of beauty. I was ready for her to go 'til this. Jermaine had a mouthful of fingernails backstage, no two ways about it.

Chris Mann selected "Ave Maria" (no, that's not a typo), saying he didn't "care if it's cool." It most definitely wasn't, nor the white scarf, but he could certainly open for Il Divo and sell a ton of merch. Xtina rushing up to hug him was "Awkward Aguilera Moment 2." I predict he'll be gone by next week (and would like for him to be), but the show is called "The Voice" and he's got a monster one.  

Jamar Rogers, who obviously thinks he already has this all in the bag (which is off-putting), chose "If You Don't Know Me by Now," and I was thrilled. Mostly because I'm for Simms all the way, and he needs to be gone in order for that to happen, and this was the tepid '80's single that could punch that ticket. But, man, Jamar brings it EVERY time. Soaring vocals, bordering on something spiritual. (Sidenote: Has anyone else noticed that Simms is ALWAYS last?)

Jermaine Paul did not surprise when it came to the song he tackled: Journey's "Open Arms." Not the choice, or the fact that he did a solid job with it. Levine told him he was no longer a backup singer thanks to his stab at Steve Perry. America, do you agree? Jermaine versus Erin is a toss-up.  

Katrina Parker managed to "save herself" last time around by rocking Pink's "Perfect," so I was surprised she brought it down with "Killing Me Softly." But it was the Fugees' rendition, and Parker was up for the up-tempo end of the equation. Even so, my bet is she won't make it to next week.

Lindsay Pavao sang Bon Iver's "Skinny Love," and might have been better served with something more popular and less folksy. She positively glowed, though, and like Jamar, appears to prefer the pressure. She didn't miss a beat, sang with confidence, and it was SO nice to see her smile. 

Juliet Simms' nerves have been getting the best of her towards the end here, and picking a James Brown song made ME nervous. "It's a Man's Man's Man's World"? Why, Juliet, why? Why not "Dream on"? But, she kicked her nerves, the song, and America in the crotch. Adam called her the one to beat and Xtina (after making it about herself: "Aguilera Awkward Moment 3") said Juliet sings from her heart. Total showstopper. Simms sizzled.

It's on.

Special to MSN TV

Last week: Despite a freakout that involved contemplating his own death-by-Bollywood, Mark (and Bopper) finished a diabolical dancing task -- and just barely survived, thanks to a non-elimination leg. 

Bing: More about 'The Amazing Race' | Photos: Meet the teams

There's just one episode left before next week's finale -- and we're still in chaotic Cochin, India, at "the former residence of the Dutch governors," Bolgatty Palace. At 6:53 a.m., a confident (mostly) Dave and Rachel leave to pick up a clue at a temple: "The only team that can beat us is ourselves," says Rachel, sagely. Twenty-seven minutes later, Brendon and Rachel leave, listing their tormentors as they go: Ralph and Vanessa ("We just want them to go home," Rachel says) and Art and J.J. (the latter is shown telling Team Big Brother "You guys couldn't follow your shadow on a bright, sunny day." Speaking of, Vanessa and Ralph are next out of the gate, with the border patrol agents a couple minutes behind them. "Vanessa is not very interested in physical challenges, so hopefully a physical challenge doesn't impede us," Ralph says, forebodingly. Finally, we check in on Mark and Bopper, who last week were, of course, nearly eliminated as Mark had to perform his Bollywood routine 12 times under a broiling sun before moving forward. We think Mark's just laying on the bed, but he's actually hooked up to an IV dip. "Mark's been close to a heat stroke, ever since he got hot from the dance," Bopper says. Mark adds, resolutely: "We're gonna stick in it." 

At the temple, teams are instructed to remove their shoes before greeting a holy man. Most go on to a "mats and matting" workshop -- but Rachel and Brendon, in second place, take the Fast Forward. (Rachel and Dave are ineligible since they've already completed one, as have the border patrol guys, and Vanessa and Ralph pass it up, thinking they got there too late.) When Rachel and Brendon get to the site of the Fast Forward, though, they discover that -- in a repeat of a challenge from season seven -- they'll need to shave their heads to skip all remaining tasks and go straight to the Pitstop. Predictably, this is a bigger deal for Rachel then for Brendon: "I don't want to shave my head -- I paid $500 for extensions," Rachel says. "I'd be so sad." She seems genuinely, thoroughly freaked out by the prospect of losing her hair: "I spent years and years trying to get my hair to look good. You want me to shave my head?" Brendon answers, "I don't know, whatever. If we're out, we're out." Rachel just can't do it, and they head for the Roadblock. 

There, they find the other teams facing a difficult challenge, which involves spinning rope and then winding it onto a spool. Sounds simple, but it's actually incredibly labor intensive. As they wind the rope, J.J. freaks out when he realizes that none of the teams have taken the Fast Forward. ("I don't want to talk about it," Rachel tells them when asked how it went.) Rachel continues to defend her decision to not take the Fast Forward: "[Season 7 winner and past head-shaver Joyce] was really cute and skinny and pretty," she says. "I need hair to be pretty -- I already feel enough about my big nose." It's actually really sad, and if you thought you couldn't feel bad for Rachel, this exchange might change your mind. It's less aggro than usual, and just depressing. J.J. is well aware that their decision to forego the Fast Forward could give the Kentuckians an opening: "Doesn't anybody think?" All the teams seem irritated by the fact that this challenge is so tedious: Manning the spool, Dave says, "the hand-crank was a 10-inch nail -- I have no skin on my index finger right now." Rachel cheers them on. Dave replies: "Babe, I don't need positive reinforcement right no -- I appreciate silence." Back at the Pitstop, a team that actually acts like they like each other -- Mark and Bopper -- are ready to go: "The sun is shining on two old dogs, and we're gonna make it count." They're about three hours behind the rest of the pack.  

Vanessa and Ralph are the first to leave for the Detour -- Vanessa trips and twists her ankle, but it's a lot of yelling for not so much injury, and she limps it off. When they collect the next clue from a barber, they discover: Pachyderm or Pack a box. The first challenge looks like a total dream and involves decorating a lovely elephant and then wheelbarrowing some dung. The second (which pays tribute to India's spice trade) looks terrible, and involves processing 10 boxes dried ginger. Everyone goes to the elephants but Art and J.J., who simply choose wrong. While the other teams merrily paint their elephants and then push the wheelbarrows around, the border patrol agents are forced to pack 10 boxes of ginger, which sounds easy but involves a complicated, multi-step process -- Art and J.J. tough it out, but it's hard to imagine Vanessa or Brendon's Rachel handling this challenge well at all. All three of the leading teams finish the elephants challenge before Art and J.J. move on, with Dave again praising Rachel's "Midwestern work ethic." (Because people in the other parts of the country don't work hard?) Art and J.J. make their funniest/only joke of the season as they role-play Dave and Rachel while shoveling ginger: You don't do anything, Rachel -- you're an idiot," one of them says. It's worryingly close to real-life. 

Meanwhile: Mark and Bopper face, and quickly complete, their Speedbump, which involves painting a tiger on a man's stomach. (Bopper: "I had no problem with it, other than it being on a man's belly.") Then they decide to take a chance and go for the Fast Forward -- which, of course, no one's done. Bopper gets his head shaved, and Mark just sort of looks on and laughs as the Indian challenge-minders pass him the trimmers. "He can cut my leg off while he's at it -- I don't care," Bopper says. It's coming clear, though, that without the benefit of a big bunch-up on a flight or similar, they're not going to catch up. It's depressing just to write this -- they were one of the best, most engaging, and most likable teams the show's ever had. 

Rachel and Dave finish up the Pachyderm challenge and head for the Pitstop, which is located on an island accessible only by ferry. With a narrow lead over Vanessa and Ralph and Brendon and Rachel, they nervously wait for the ferry to leave, which will secure the win: "Honestly, babe, I'll pay this guy if we can go," Dave tells Rachel, gesturing to the ferryman. Just before those two teams arrive, the boat leaves, giving Rachel and Dave first place, with the next two teams close behind. When they reach the Pitstop, Phil oversees a ridiculous continuation of the spat between Rachel and Vanessa that's somehow lasted all season: "She doesn't like my sequins," Rachel says, then complains about how Vanessa also made fun of her nose job. "I said you get your boobs done [first]," Vanessa says. "It just makes sense." 

Art and J.J. are yelling at each other ("Dude quit yelling -- you're being a little bitch," Art says to J.J.), but it slowly becomes clear that the Kentuckians probably lost this leg before they started. Though the border patrol agents have taxi/rickshaw trouble on the way to the Pitstop, they're the ones coming back for next week's two-leg finale: Mark and Bopper, despite running a basically flawless leg, are out. "[The race] was one of the most humbling experiences of my life," Mark says. Bopper recalls all of their adventures: "I had no idea what i was missing out on," he says. They leave in fifth place -- the same as last season's big fan favorite, 60+ farmers (and ultimate gut-it-out-ers) Bill and Cathi. “Unfinished Business,” anyone?
