"Dancing with the Stars" pro Lacey Schwimmer will not be part of the show's 10th season.Schwimmer, a former "So You Think You Can Dance" contestant and veteran of three "DWTS" seasons, tweeted over the weekend that she won't be on the ABC show this spring. Whatever the circumstances of her departure, she doesn't seem to have any hard feelings toward "Dancing" -- she wrote, "Hey twitterbugs! I will not be doing DWTS this season. But be sure to tune in! <3"
She's the second professional dancer to confirm they won't be part of the new season; Jonathan Roberts also let the world know via Twitter that he won't be taking part.
Schwimmer paired up with "Iron Chef America" host Mark Dacascos in the fall; she previously danced with Lance Bass and Steve-O. Roberts has partnered with Marie Osmond, Belinda Carlisle and Monica Seles.

I love Lacey and Jonathon. The show won't be as good without them. I hope the new female pro from last year (Russian) doesn't return. I didn't like her at all!
Lacey brought a very fresh vibe to a pretty stuffy show. I'm just about over DWTS and don't plan to watch much, if any, of the show next season.
Meh. Lacey was pretty but not really a threat to win anyway.
So glad Lacey is not going to be on, She is not a ballroom dancer. Get rid of the SYTYCD wanna be pros.
I will miss Lacey. I think she brought a lot to the show. I also like to see the SYTYCD dancers actually get to make a career out of dancing, so bring them on! Where's Benji BTW?
I will miss Lacy, she was a good addition to the show.
The only reason I started watching dwts was because of the integration of past sytycd contestants. It's much less old that way. I'm very disappointed see her gone. Luckily chelsea is still there or I wouldn't be watching.
i thought this season of dancing with the stars will be better as the other season but they didn't. =(
Hey I think they should take off the want to be people. =)
i think she "was not asked" to come back
