Jennie Garth's 'Dancing' Tears

Access Hollywood - November 21, 2007 2:21 PM PST

LOS ANGELES, Calif. (November 21, 2007) - Jennie Garth bid farewell last night on "Dancing with the Stars." The "90210" star didn't expect to win, but she was not emotionally prepared to hear "goodbye."

"I am an emotional person. Not a crazy person -- I just cry really easily," she told Access Hollywood last night just moments after gettting the boot.

Wiping away her own tears, backstage Jennie offered words of comfort and a hug to her number one fan, 10-year old daughter, Luca.

"My family has been so supportive and I knew my daughter was gonna be disappointed so that was hard," Jennie Garth said. "She thought I was gonna win it. I kept telling her, 'Baby, mommy is not gonna win this.'"

But, there were a lot of consolation prizes. Derek scored a high-five from Jennie's one-year old, Fiona, while the hot mama scored a kiss from her little one and husband Peter Facinelli.

"What did you say to her when the show ended?" Tony Potts asked Peter.

"I haven't really talked to her. I let my lips do the talking. We embraced and I gave her a big warm kiss," he said. "It's bittersweet, it's the end of the road but she gets to come back to her family."

But for some maybe just bitter -- with three perfect scores on Monday night, Jennie outscored Marie, which even has Yahoo saying "fans got it wrong."

Mel and Maks admitted they are feeling the Osmond heat, despite their two perfect scores.

"It's the viewers that decide no matter what the judges say," Mel B told Access.

"There's like ten million Osmonds everywhere, " Maksim exclaimed.

"Do you the Osmond factor is a big deal in this?" Tony asked.

"No," both Mel and Maks replied sarcastically.

    They are all fantastic. They all have a lot of fun and admit it, the ones who need it, loose a lot of weight too!! I just wish I could get on there and do half as well as the worst and lose the weight!!! HAHA.. In all seriousness, "we" are the ones that keep them on and we are the ones that will chose who wins, so get out there and outnumber the Osmonds, you get 5 votes each!!!

    also she is going though a Divorce, lost her dad, passed out on national tv, and now her son is having problems. But she keeps going and does not show her pain in her dancing. I will VOTE my 6 times for her and hope that she in the end wins because she is working just as hard as everyone else. GO MARIE Go for the win and make you Dad proud !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I have been a fan of Donny and Marie from the age of 7 or 8, I have and will vote for her until the end. I think saying she is using her loss as a crutch is going a little far. They are a close family and is dealing with the loss of a man she calls her Hero. I think she has improved from the very first day and keeps going no matter what is going on in her life.

    Yes....speaking of having family all over.....My hubby is like 4th-5th cousins --rather distant!! They shared a great grandmother or something like that!!! I was cheering for Marie ... But I really do think she is done now!! I think its between MelC and Helio

    I still think that Helio should win this damn thang. First of all, he is a true amateur whereas Mel has been an entertainer for the longest with a non-sangin'/non-dancin' group. Marie, on the other hand, she's been an entertainer, though she only swayed from side to side, but, surprisingly on beat; however, on the Donny & Marie Show 500 years ago.

    No matter what Mel B is the winner! I think that if Mary wins it will be a disaster beacuse that's indicative that popularity goes over talent...let's face it, Mary is one of the worst dancers on the competition but oh well...let's keep rooting for crap...that's the world we are living today apparently...
