Dancing With the Stars amped up the pressure during the season 17 semifinals on Monday night.

The ABC show said goodbye to Leah Remini and Tony Dovolani following the 10th week of competition.

Performing two pieces, one to original music and one to an acoustic song, the competitors were judged both by the regular three-person panel and by guest judge Maksim Chmerkovskiy.

Amber Riley and Derek Hough continued to bring their A game late in the season. After scoring a 38 for their Jazz routine, the partners went on the receive a perfect 40 for their Viennese Waltz, helping them to top the charts for this week's performers.

Corbin Bleu and Karina Smirnoff proved to be Amber and Derek's strongest competition. The duo pulled in a 35 for their Tango before going on to receive a 40 for their Rumba. Meanwhile, Jack Osbourne and Cheryl received a 33 and a 38 for their Jazz an Argentine Tango routines respectively.

Bill Engvall and Emma Slater were positioned in the bottom two with Leah and Tony. Despite Bill and Emma's continually poor scores, the pair managed to garner enough votes from viewers to push them over the top so that Leah and Tony were eliminated instead.

Dancing With the Stars airs Mondays at 8 p.m. on ABC. Click the video below to see Amber and Derek's Jazz routine.
