'Dancing With The Stars' Cast-Off Jack Wanger Talks His Elimination On 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' (VIDEO)

Latest 'DWTS' Cast-Off Talks Inspiration On 'Kimmel'

"This was the celebration dance for everybody who has faced adoption and gone through the miracle and heartaches of people who have tried to find their parents," he said. "And my daughter has a lot of courage.

"Dancing with the Stars" continues Mondays at 8 p.m. ET and Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET on ABC. "Jimmy Kimmel Live" is on every weeknights at 12 a.m. ET on ABC.
