Rumer Willis Falls From Top Spot In 'Dancing With The Stars;' Details Revealed!

Rumer Willis has been toppled off the top place in "Dancing With The Stars" in the semi-finals special that aired last Monday. Tied at first place are Riker Lynch and Nastia Liukin, with perfect scores for each. Rumer, on the other hand, is at the bottom of the list with Noah Galloway.

Rumer and her professional partner, Val Chmerkovskiy first performed a Viennese waltz that was inspired by the movie  "Fifty Shades of Grey." The song that accompanied their dance was The Weekend's "Earned It." The judges gave top marks on that routine, earning the pair 38 out of 40 points. However, Rumer and Val failed to impress on their second number, a contemporary fusion number that was inspired by Swan Lake.

The actress' mom, Demi Moore taped a segment for the episode in which she remembered what it was like when she was born. "She looked like a magical elf," Demi shared.

But when Rumer got older, there were many challenges that she faced growing up in the spotlight with her famous parents, Demi and Bruce Willis. The media started calling her "ugly" and the young lady had to endure several cyberbullying incidents.

Mom Demi said that it was tough for her daughter. "There really wasn't anything I could do to stop it," said Demi on Monday's show. "Her self esteem was nothing."

"I could only just keep loving her and loving her until she could love herself," she added.

"'When she said to me 'I want to do 'Dancing With the Stars', my whole insides, I have to be honest, were screaming, 'No,'" Demi said "But one of the most beautiful things I've witnessed is watching her passion become greater than her fear."

Rumer's sister, Scout also shared her thoughts about her sister. "I've seen Rumer grow more since she's been on 'Dancing With the Stars' than I have in maybe like the past four years," Scout said. "It's really, really special that the world is falling in love with her."
