Dancing With the Stars Results: The Top Seven Are ...

Jaleel White and Katherine Jenkins shared the coveted #1 spot on the Dancing with the Stars scoreboard Monday, but other couples weren't so fortunate.

On the other end of the point spectrum, young Roshon Fegan and his partner Chelsie Hightower lacked sex appeal with their modest 23-point rumba.

Gladys Knight and partner Tristan MacManus, meanwhile, scored an underwhelming 21 for theirs. It was no shock that both were in the bottom two.

Which pair went home after dancing for their lives?

Gladys Knight and Tristan MacManus are done.

The singer and her partner faced off in a dance duel with Roshon and Chelsie, and after both couples performed a jive, the judges offered a split decision.

Carrie Ann Inaba chose to save Gladys, but Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli picked Roshon to carry on, eliminating Knight by a 2-1 vote. She took it well.

"I am just so amazed at this journey. It's been absolutely extraordinary. I learned so many things ... I'm just overjoyed," the legendary singer.

Of the remaining contestants, who'll be back on Monday, she said, "They are already stepping up way, way, way beyond anything that's ever been on this show."

Which of those dancers do you think will win it all?

Bumblebee gecko species a 'striking surprise,' say scientists

Bumblebee gecko: A new species of gecko, dubbed the 'bumblebee gecko,' after its yellow and black markings, has been discovered in Papua New Guinea.?

A new species of gecko with black and gold bands like a bumblebee and slender toes termed a "striking surprise" has been discovered deep in the tropical forests of Papua New Guinea, the U.S. Geological survey said.

The lizard, which measures about 13 cm (5 inches) from head to tail and is covered with rows of skin nodules that make it easier for it to conceal itself on the forest floor, was collected on Manus Island in March, 2010 and described in a report published in the journal "Zootaxa" in April.

"We've officially named it Nactus kunan for its striking color pattern - kunan means 'bumblebee' in the local Nali Language," said Robert Fisher of the USGS Western Ecological Research Center, who with biologists from the Papua New Guinea National Museum discovered the gecko.

"It belongs to a genus of slender-toed geckos, which means these guys don't have the padded, wall-climbing toes like the common house gecko," he added in a statement.

Fisher found two on Manus Island in 2010 and analyzed their genetics to show that the lizards were new. Two other species also found on that trip are set for further analysis.

"This species was a striking surprise, as I've been working on the genus since the 1970s and would not have predicted this discovery," herpetologist George Zug of the Smithsonian Institution, co-author of the report on the new find, said.
