Tearful Ally Brooke on Trying to Give ‘DWTS’ Spot to James Van Der Beek

It was an emotional night on “Dancing with the Stars,” as Ally Brooke was saved by the judges and James Van Der Beek was sent home on the heels of his emotional revelation about wife Kimberly’s miscarriage. Ally opened up to “Extra’s” Jenn Lahmers about trying to give her spot in the competition to James following the decision. “I felt like that was the right thing to do, and I’m sad that he didn’t accept the offer,” Ally said. “But I talked to him privately and he wants me to be here… I guess I just have to carry that, but I am so sad he is not in the finale, because he deserved to be in the finale.”
