Michelle Heaton has become the second star to be eliminated from Dancing on Ice on Sunday night (January 29).
The Liberty X singer admitted she was "gutted" to get the axe after it was announced her and skating partner Lukasz Rozycki didn't make it through.
But poor Michelle didn't get another chance to save her spot on the ITV show as there was no skate-off during Musicals Week – a drastic format change which put the power in the hands of the public vote.

Michelle and Lukasz took viewers back to the Roaring Twenties when they skated All That Jazz from Cabaret – but they only managed to bag 20 points out of a possible 40 from the judges.
Judge Christopher Dean said she was "relying on Lukasz" in her routine.
