Lolo Jones has famously lost at multiple Olympics in both the hurdles and bobsled and, as a result, has been stuck with a reputation of being overhyped and overrated.
And sadly for Lolo, her appearance on “Dancing with the Stars” did absolutely nothing to help her image -- she was the first contestant eliminated from the show’s 19th season on Tuesday night. After botching her debut dance, which Lolo herself called “awful,” she failed to win over the judges or fans at home.
After the show, Lolo seemed disappointed by the outcome but turned her attention to social media -- the arena in which she is the undisputed champion. We all have our talents.
Thank you to everyone who voted and supported us. Sad @keodancer and I didn't get to dance more but we will see you at the Finale! #DWTS

On the plus side, maybe this means Lolo will have time to find yet another sport to master. May I humbly suggest curling?
