On Tuesday night’s results show, “Dancing With the Stars” pros, including dancers previously eliminated, united for a dance tribute to Michael Jackson, MTV.com reports.

Introduced by the late star’s sister, LaToya Jackson, the pros performed “I Want You Back,” “Man In the Mirror,” and “Thriller” clad in replicas of Michael Jackson’s well-known costumes.  Several of Jackson’s family members sat in the audience for the show, including his mother Katherine.

Following Monday night’s performances of either the paso doble or Argentine tango, two unexpected couples landed in the bottom two.  Even the judges said they were surprised to see Aaron Carter and partner Karina Smirnoff  along with Natalie Coughlin and  Alec Mazo facing possible elimination. Ultimately, Coughlin and Mazo were eliminated from competition.

Tweeps said they were moved by the tribute to Jackson and shared their thoughts about the rest of the show:
