Last night's Dancing With the Stars results show marked the end of Bristol Palin's run on the program, and her partner Mark Ballas has a theory on why they got bounced:
Bristol Palin played it too safe and didn't think outside the box, he feels.
Ballas told reporters he was "dead serious" about dressing up as an animal pair for their routine previous night, which Palin nixed (see their performance below).
He doesn't regret her decision, he says, but believes taking a risk could've helped her.
"Hey, you can guide a horse to water, but you can't make it drink," Ballas says. "At the end of the day, they have to be comfortable when they walk on stage."
"The problem is, though, with doing that, this is the all-star season, so we have a lot of champions and a lot of finalists, so all of these people are really open-minded."
Using contestant Gilles Marini's open-chested Aladdin ensemble as an example, Ballas said, "It's called stepping out of the box, you know what I mean?"
"You've got to be more open-minded to that stuff, but at the same time, as a choreographer and coach, you have to be respectful of your partner's choices."
