Chaz Bono had another difficult week on Dancing With the Stars. The 42-year-old LBGT activist told his story on the dance floor last night, opening up about the hardships of growing up and transitioning.
Dancing the rumba with pro partner Lacey Schwimmer, Chaz dedicated the performance as “tribute to my dad."

“If you have a problem with me, that’s your problem not mine," he said boldly in the pre-dance clip.
While Chaz is still suffering with his ankle and knee injuries, he gave the dance his all and the emotion behind it was palpable.
"I am so impressed by your real courage," judge Carrie Annie Inaba shared, adding, “Tonight wasn’t your best performance…it’s breaking my heart to say this!”
Bruno Tonioli chimed in, “There is a very endearing quality about you.”
