Kristi Yamaguchi Wins 'Dancing With The Stars'
Olympic Gold Medal Skater, Kristi Yamaguchi, is the second woman of the six seasons of Dancing With The Stars, to win the mirror ball trophy. The first being soap opera star Kelly Monaco in the first season of the show.
Kristi and partner Mark Ballas truly deserved to win since they have been amazing to watch all season long. They held nothing back and scored all 10s on their last three dances. This was the first time that a three dance sweep of perfect scores were earned by a team in DWTS finale history.
The charming runner-up, Jason Taylor, and his partner Edyta Silwinski told the host Samantha Harris that “Kristi very much deserves it.” The camaraderie and competition between Jason and Kristi was great entertainment to watch throughout the season and on last night's finale show Jason's final dance finally earned him 3 perfect 10s from the judges and he shouted to Kristi, "Hey Kristi, it does feel good!"
Finishing in third place was Latin hottie Cristian de la Fuente and his partner Cheryl Burke. Christian has been amazing in his last 3 weeks of dancing--dancing with just one arm since he'd torn his tendon on his left arm a few weeks ago and couldn't put any stress on that arm--you could hardly tell he was injured. Oh, and he's oh so hot too--did I mention that?
