LOS ANGELES, Nov. 11 (UPI) -- Maurice Greene is the latest celebrity eliminated from the U.S. television competition show "Dancing with the Stars."

"This was a lot of fun," the Olympic gold-medal-winning runner said upon learning he and his professional dance partner, Cheryl Burke, were being booted off the show Tuesday night. "I had a lot of fun. I made a lot of new friends out here. I learned how to dance out here in front of millions of people every night. I had a great time. "

Greene's departure follows that of Susan Lucci who was eliminated from the competition last week.

Heading into the semifinals for the mirror ball trophy, along with their professional dance partners, are Brooke Burke, Lance Bass, Cody Linley and Warren Sapp.
