LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'Dancing With The Stars' Season 33 contestant Eric Roberts has been struggling to show his flawless dance moves. The ABC show contestant and his pro partner Britt Stewart recently performed a Waltz to the iconic theme song of 'The Godfather'. While Eric's dedication and hard work shone through in this performance, there's still plenty of room for growth.

Eric has been having fun and enjoying his time on the stage but the ABC show is a dance competition where the other contestants are eyeing to defeat him for the coveted Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy. Eric embodied his character with elegance and grace but there were a lot of errors in his footwork.

Talented performers Tori Spelling and Pasha Pashkov, along with Anna Delvey and Ezra Sosa, have recently found themselves on the chopping block, and Eric could be next in line. The viewers are expecting Eric to be eliminated in the upcoming episode if he keeps stumbling over his blunders.
