Charlotte McKinney was eliminated from ABC's Dancing with the Stars on Monday night, and she thinks her dyslexia is to blame.
Days on DWTS Are Numbered For Charlotte McKinney
"With my dyslexia I'm more of a visual learner so someone has to really show me," McKinney explain, via People.com. "And it takes a lot of extra time and this week I don't have that.
"It comes to play just by focus. I think a lot of my dyslexia makes me just kind of not want to look at the situation," she added. "It's hard. Dancing is all about numbers, and left to right and stuff like that. I think I showed that I did accomplish stuff with it but it's still there and it's tough. A lot of people don't really understand it."

To add insult to injury, in addition to being eliminated McKinney also received a condescending, borderline-misogynistic remark from judge Bruno Toioli.
Tonioli was unduly dismissive of McKinney on air, telling her "you’re never going to win the Nobel prize for quantum physics, but you are easy on the eyes and you produce wonderful shapes.” Social media, to its credit, was quick to censure Tonioli for those remarks.
"It was really uncalled for," McKinney told People. "It was really hurtful. I know it's judging and I know it's TV and you need that but it was so uncalled for."
