Carrie Ann Inaba feels Dancing with the Stars won't be the same without co-host Samantha Harris.

"The show is going to miss her," the Dancing with the Stars judge told People at Sunday night's Grammy Awards. "I was really shocked and I was really sad to hear that she's moving on."

Harris announced late last week that she is leaving Dancing with the Stars to instead focus more on her work at Entertainment Tonight Weekend and The Insider.

"She got better opportunities and wonderful things," Inaba told People. "I'm very happy for her."

Harris -- who began co-hosting Dancing with the Stars with Tom Bergeron prior to its Spring 2006 second season when she replaced Lisa Canning -- won't return for the show's tenth season, which premieres March 22.

"Samantha Harris is beautiful," former ninth-season contestant Aaron Carter told People. "I got to answer to her every Monday and Tuesday, so I wasn't complaining. Ever."
