Although the Dancing with the Stars season officially ended with the awarding of the mirror ball trophy to winner Helio Castroneves, the DWTS news does not stop.
Mark Ballas apparently dislocated his shoulder during the cha cha cha routine with Sabrina Bryan.  I did not even notice, but according to this article, you can see him [...]

Finally, at 9:56 p.m., the Dancing with the Stars winner was announced. And the winner is . . .
HELIO CASTRONVES

In tonight’s Dancing with the Stars finale, Mel B. and Helio Castroneves had to perform one last routine for the judges. Each dancer was able to chose their favorite dance of the season to perform.

Marie Osmond was the first of the Dancing with the Stars finalists to be eliminated.  Thank goodness.  I am relieved that Marie Osmond’s fans did not get her the win.  While she is an entertaining performer, she is nowhere near the best dancer.  I think that doll routine did her in.

This week on the finals of Dancing with the Stars, each dancer had to perform two dances, one style chosen by the judges as a repeat performance and one freestyle routine, with the rules about lifts, uh, lifted.

Although Jennie Garth’s cha cha cha was not enough to get her into the finale, it was certainly her best performance all season and should have been enough to get her into the final.
Here is a video of her and partner Derek Hough performing the cha cha cha.
