SPOILERS!!! DWTS Season 14…And The Winner Is???
And the hyperbole plays on. They are really trying hard to sell this season as the best ever, with CAI telling Katherine she had one of the best dances ever and Len claiming that Willy’s Cha Cha was right up there with the best in 14 seasons, we have them adding to the hyperbole using Tom as a mouthpiece. Spare me, gang, you’re just insulting my intelligence now.
Okay, with the spoiler space for twitter dispensed with…..WHOOOO HOOO!! Okay. Had to get that out of my system. CONGRATULATIONS TO DONALD AND PETA!!!!!
Here are the official standings:
Third Place: William and Cheryl
Second Place: Katherine and Mark
Winner of Season 14: Donald and Peta
Great finale, all in all – all the returning contestants did great. And may I toot my own horn?? I called Donald back in week one or two. 😉
How did we all do this week? Well…
Heidi: predicted Donald as the winner, William as second with Katherine as third
Courtney: predicted Donald as the winner, William as second and Katherine third.
Vogue: Ever the rogue, Vogue said that Donald would win, Katherine would take second and Willy would come in third.
And Vogue gets it right once again!!
Gang, don’t tune out right away. We’ll have a few episodes of Cheesecake, a team retrospective look at Season 14 (warts and all), and a numbers post looking at the entire season, attempting to answer the question of William Levy – if he hadn’t been constantly over scored, would he have gone home a lot sooner?? Or did the general audience get wise to the pimping like my little sister did??
I’m so glad Donald won and Katherine got second! I missed the finale, but will catch it on Hulu tomorrow. Looking forward to the cheesecake.
JUSTICE !
YAY!!! The right couple definitely won… I am so excited. As soon as Willy took the 3rd spot I knew it was Donald.
Congratulations Donald and Peta….
Is it too early to start petitioning for katherine to be part of dwts allstars?
On a side note, can’t wait for GMA tomorrow!
Wooooo!!
I’m SO glad Donald and Peta won! They SO deserved it and i’m extra happy that Katherine and Mark were in second! 😀
I think this might be the happiest I’ve ever been at a finale that Derek hasn’t won. 😉
Sherri’s “It’s Raining Men” was so campy and ridiculous. I laughed out loud. Hilarious
Loved every single thing about the finale…everyones dances…kelly clarkson….and the placements. So happy for donald and petA
But the real winner tonight was Gladys!!!
She had me balling like i danced this season…couldnt imagine how it felt fir the final 3
LOL Heidi! You are cracking me up with the “rogue” comment. lollll
Anyway, thanks and I’m so so happy!! Yay, finally redemption for Donald and Peta for being underscored all season. What a fantastic night. I loved seeing all the contestants again.
Ditto Heidi! Except I would substitute Karina for Derek! lol Congrats to Donald and Peta! 🙂
Yes! Yes! Yes!
This ending was so right on so many levels! Donald wins, Katherine comes second and Cheryl has to eat crow and comes third! I didn’t call it in week 2, but I did say several weeks ago that Donald would suddenly “peak” at the right time according to the judges. Bruno’s words tonight!
And may I just say that after seeing Derek and Maria’s even more fantastic A Tango tonight, I think they were robbed. They certainly should have been in the finals with Katherine and Donald.
Correction…bawling. too excited lol
I feel snarky saying this’s out Cheryl but ” ding dong the witch didn’t win” thank goodness. Hope she takes time to deflate her ego and pick up some creative choreography.
Congrats to Donald and Peta! When Gladys was singing and Peta, Doanld, Karherine, and Mark (OMG his face was like a little boy who’s puppy just died. Wanted to hug him) were in tears, I thought those got to be the Top 2 based on their reactions to the song. Heartfelt.
What’s a post from me without shouting out my love for Roshon and Chelsie. LOVED their freestyle and did not want the dance to end. Thank you TeamRochee for bringing something original..cha-cha/contemporary/hip-hop freestyling. I hope they get to do more dancing together. I would love to see them dance to something Nappy Tabs choreograph. Make it happen Disney please!! I’m so glad they got to do the free style, so thank you TPTB for one of a few good moves from you.
The eliminated stars really put out some fun routines!!!
The highlight had to be galdys singing though. AMAZING She should record that on a cd with a bunch of standars release it and she will get nominated for a grammy no doubt.
Also, that was the most entertaining finale by far EVER on the show.
Yay! Donald won! Did anyone else catch the comment by either Tom or Brooke about the upcoming All-Star season? Something about all our favs returning, a pause, and then something about also some controversial contestants return as well? Please, not Bristol Palin!! Or Kate Gosselin. Who was more controversial than those two? Maria and Derek would be nice. She deserves another chance because the final 4 this season were so close.
Watching Donald’s reaction to winning was the best part of the night! So happy for him and Peta! And how cute are his kids:)
Justice prevails in the end. Yay!
Yeah, Meggie, that AT by Derek and Maria tonight was far better than what they did before – and better than anything William managed, IMO.
That’s what they said last week too, Candace. And I’m with you. I wish they would just make it all good dancers and leave the controversy out of it.
Anna T tweeted that DWTS was planning on asking Kate G. to come back for the All Star season – seriously, I just checked! 😯 Noooooo!
Really glad that Donald and Peta won. Even if a Packer did become a Cowboy for a few hours,that free-style was a winner.
I agree that the highlight of tonight’s show was Gladys Knight. Nobody can sing a song like Gladys..she is a classic.
I thought there was a real goof in William’s dance with one of the through the legs movements (Cheryl’s head caught behind his leg), which on any other night should have meant a 27 at least. Did anyone else see it?
I would have given William the 27, Katherine a 28, and Donald a 30. If the first two dances were 30’s then Donald’s was a 31!
Why can’t they just bring back stars that finished in the top four, say, and let it really be a dance competition?
LOL…just saw the re-play of announcing the winner on Nightline…you could tell they were short on time by how fast Tom was reading his script. I bet he was crapping his pants when Donald took off running around. LOL. I think that’s the closest they’ve come to running out of time in quite a long time.
Totally agree with you, Lee! The top four finishers would make for a fabulous season. Even better would be the top three runner ups – no winners OR just winners. I noticed Laila A. in the audience tonight. I wonder if she would come back.
I did see it, but I think the judges decided if no glaring mistakes they were going to give the same score to all.
So glad William got third! I like him as a person, but the overscoring upset me. IMO his freestyle was not even a dance. It was just him grinding and at one point all he was doing was thrusting himself onto Cheryl. And his finale salsa was good but not worthy of a perfect score. He probably could have done some good dancing if Cheryl choreographed them for him. Katherine’s freestyle had me smiling the whole time and her jive was awesome! I wasn’t sure how she could improve from her first jive, but she did. I loved Donald’s freestyle and am so glad he got a 30 for his cha cha cha! I thought the scores should have been Katherine 90, Donald 88, and William 81 with either Katherine or Donald winning since I thought they were both great!
Regardless, Congrats to all three finalists!
Okay…I have to go. I hope that my fellow bloggers are around to approve comments…
Are you going to get your drink on some more??? lol!
Did Derek and Maria do a new AT, or was it just a better performance of the original? Sorry for the question but I probably won’t get to see the show for awhile.
🙂 Yeah!! Happy dance!!
Wow – Gladys showed everyone how it should be done! Amazing!
No, Meggie, I have to recover. 🙂
mmc, it wasn’t a new AT, it just had some of the tricks that Derek couldn’t do due to his back injury.
I’m curious, in the opening when they appear according to their eliminations, why were Melissa appear BEFORE Roshon? Isn’t she in the 5th place?
Happy Donald won and his reaction was hilarious. You could tell he wanted this badly, I would if I was watching since season 1. Gladys singing is the best performance of the night. I think this is one of the best finale of dancing with the stars, ever. The cast is so talented I’m going to miss them! until next season, that is… 😉
LOL Meggie #30!
Happy with the the winner, watching the show now, can’t wait to see all the returning dancers and Gladys singing.
And have to say, loved the opening number. DWTS has introduced me now to two songs this season that I have to download – tonight’s song (Pixie Lott – All About Tonight) and the group dance from the beginning of the season (Olly Murs – Dance with Me Tonight). Although they are UK performers, so it makes getting the songs a bit of a challenge….
I dont know if you’ve guys realized, but the Hough/Ballas trio dominated the show.
They won:
Season 4 Julianne Season5 Julianne
Season 6 Mark Season 7 Derek
Season 8 Mark Season 10 Derek
Season 11 Derek
Im just glad other pros are getting the love also, it’s three seasons now since they have won. I was excited that Karina and Peta won their first times.
Dont want to portray myself as a hater, but It’s frustrating to see some pros win multiple times while some like Tony, edyta and Maks who have put their herts into the comp. haven’t won yet
Oh my, muy spelling sucked AGAIN. Sorry guys.
Glad Donald won. Glad Katherine got 2nd at least. You could tell she really wanted it, she seemed suprised that the American Public kept her every week, and she was reaally a trembling mess before they announced who was going out 3rd. Both Donald and Katherine really wanted it, compared to William. Cant believe the douche said in an interview that he didnt expect, nor really wanted to win the show. Oh and Cheryl is so “creative”, having him dance ANOTHER latin dance. God ! I apologize for being what you people call a “hater”
Anyways, cant wait until next season, it’s obvious that ABC wants to get the ratings back up
Princess Heidi # 7 Totally agree with that!
Candace # 18 I would like to see Maria get another chance and dance without all the injuries. First, I hope she heals and finds out why she kept breaking!
Darn this laptop is sensitive.
PH # 25 Why can’t the director tighten up the show so they have a little more time at the end. Like Tom announcing the winnder right away and not having that pregnant pause!
For All Stars – No winners, just the 2nd 3rd or 4th place finishers. And then others that left too soon, like Chynna Phillips and Petra Nemkova. And please no controversial ones. Can’t we have a pleasant DWTS for a change. I would love to see Tony’s reaction if Kate is asked. He’ll leave the country!
And last but not least – Thank goodness we are free of Willy and the B in Studio C! Karma baby! Now go away for a while, a very long while! Let Gilles get someone in the All Stars that will choreo a real freestyle for him! C U next Tuesday 2014 Cheryl!
Yahoooo! Being on the West Coast, I stay away from Twitter and this website so I can watch “live.” I was shocked that William took third after listening to the audience screaming for him but was very happy when he did! Congrats to Donald and Peta – I’m glad they won.
I caught the last hour of the show but missed Willy’s final dance. I am veeeerrrryyy happy that tv justice prevailed!!! I was so happy to see Donald win. And Peta is now a champion too!!! It’s a good day to be a man 😛
Ok I have to do some somewhat pimping. That song at the end where everyone went up to congratulate Donald was “All About Tonight” by one of my favorite pop stars Pixie Lott. She is huge in the U.K. In fact, I would not be a fan of hers if it weren’t for DWTS. You see Brandy and Maks’ VW was performed to a song by Pixie and I did my research, and the girl’s vocal chops are out of this world! So my parents went to London recently and they got me Pixie’s latest cd and in it was het first hit off this album which is the song you heard tonight. And I loved the audience bobbing and dancing to it. They really liked it. You could so tell they were wondering who it was. That song is the bomb IMO and so I really recommend you all to look her up. In fact, I was actually listening to that album today which is so coincidental. It was such a nice surprise to hear a UK artist on DWTS.
Anyway, again, congrats to Donald and MY GIRL PETA!!! (Yes Zach, I called it!!!)
I’m SO thrilled about tonight’s results. I was jumping around when Donald won just like he was lol. He’s by FAR my favorite football player ever on this show.
I’m also very happy for Peta. She went from the first one out to becoming the winner the next season <3 Such an amazing story and the perfect end to this season.
Can't wait for All Stars! The only thing I ask is for them to keep everyone with their original partner! I also wish they wouldn't have any past winners on but I guess they are. Oh well.
Well, something that I can’t unerstand is how William (and Cheryl) got so much fans… more than Derek (and Maria). And it’s not only about the shirt thing… He was clearly protected by the judges, but I think that it couldn’t change his 3rd place.
In my opinion, overall, he performed better than Maria who had better tecnique than him – which was obvious, specially on ballroom. But he had more impact than her on his first dances, what took the buzz to him early, and this was important on a season with very good begining. Maria injuries really didn’t help her with the fans. And this wasn’t a creative season for Derek, IMO. He wasn’t at his best. I’m not crazy about him, but he is my favourite male pro.
I am guessing that the only week that William was on B2 is the semifinals with Maria, but she couldn’t beat him.
I just want to say that Peta was the smartest pro this season. And she’s lucky because Donald was the star who wanted win the most. She used the terrible theme weeks in favour of the couple: on Drama Week she burned the rumba, wich could be one of the weekest dance to Donald. On rock week, she did a traditional paso with just one or two “rock” references. latin week just a good AT with a sick lift. and the motown the reference was more on the outfit than on the dance. I’m just sad i didn’t see a donald’s salsa… hehehe
Cheryl did a good job but her strategy wasn’t very smart… She just wanted william be the latin hot hunk. I think he could do more than this… so, she didn’t took him to the limits. This season i preffered her ballroom choreographies than the latin that had more impact but missed creativity, I think.
We could see the Mark we love (I’m betting the Mark we love is that on season 5 and season 8… hehehe) with great choreographies and chemestry with his partner. The 1st jive was the high point, in my opinion. The dance I definely will remember. Fox, freestyle, quickstep, team tango, 2nd paso, great. But when he tries to do something TOO MUCH out of the box, the thing change… 1st paso, AT, and specially SALSA (when he wanted to copy Derek “bollywood/mid-east” idea), not very good. I know he does this to keep the things fresh but sometimes you just want to watch a good dance, you know… Differently from Kristin, Katherine had fans he needed not to worry about do something edgey…welll, IMO… I was watching his salsas/mambos before that week and I think the most traditional salsa – and his best one – was with MJH, on season 9. Curiously, the star that he had the less chemistry…
Well, Rick, “the trio” have won multiple times for many reasons, the biggest being their approach to choreography and teaching. But you should add Cheryl in there as well – she won the two seasons before Julianne came on board. That’s NINE out of 14 seasons.
And “we” don’t call people haters here…some silly people who storm in here throwing tantrums do, however.
Linz, it’s a live show, the timing has to be incredibly difficult. When the judges go on and on like morons, they eat up time. It has to be timed to the millisecond to get off the air in time. And actually, if you re-watch the end, Tom was BLAZING through his script and the pause was a fraction of what it usually is. Go back and watch when either Nicole or Jennifer won – I think both of those (and perhaps Hines too) had time left at the end so there was a much longer pause.
Carlos, if you go back and look at the numbers, he didn’t have to get much to get past Maria last week…prior to that we don’t KNOW how well they were doing relative to each other. As for Derek, he gets a tremendous amount of credit for what he did do with Maria. He took a girl who he thought would be eliminated in week 3 or 4 (and probably would have been with anyone else) and turned her from “Bambi on Ice” to a decent dancer. Not only that but he wrested the spotlight AWAY from William on several occasions and put it on Maria. You may have thought that he wasn’t at his best this season, but you do what you can with what you have and Maria is NOT a natural dancer in addition to having quite a few injuries. All in perspective, this might be one of his more accomplished seasons – if you look at what the job of the pro is SUPPOSED to be. It’s not to choreograph Emmy worthy routines, it’s to teach your partner to dance. And he took “Bambi on Ice” to the semi-finals.
I also give Mark a lot of credit – he seemed to have a new maturity this season and he didn’t do a lot of pouting like he has in the not to distant past. He did well with Katherine – despite her having a lot more natural ability than others on the show (and more performing experience than Donald or Maria), he worked hard to get routines out of her and combat her emotional nature. He didn’t have quite the job that Derek did in creating a dancer, but second place ain’t nothing to sneeze at. He had high points and low points in choreography – I still believe that Derek is more *effortlessly* creative and Mark tends to “borrow” more heavily from other people than a lot of the pros do. They all do that, but it seems obvious at times when Mark does it. Someone will remind me of a whole dance that he got from you tube – I can’t remember who he did that with not. Chelsea??
Peta did a great job with Donald – but he was more talented than Hines OR Warren Sapp, so the jury is out on if she’s up there with Kym in terms of entertaining choreography. Not to mention he was really invested in it – that goes a long way. I’ll be curious to see what she can do (and Tristan too) next season, assuming she gets a shot on all stars.
Cheryl? I could do a whole post on how lazy she was and how she was determined to take the easy way out and coast to victory on the sexy guy image of her partner. I wonder how sure she was that she had it in the bag because of that? And I wonder if Mark is really pissed or hurt? I wouldn’t blame him if he is.
For all the ups and downs of the season, the ending was perfect. Donald deserved that MBT! So happy for him and Peta.
I’m very curious about the all-star season. I can’t wait to see who the celebrities will be.
I think it was a better performance of the original as Heidi said? I loved seeing it again too. While watching it again I wondered to myself why they weren’t in the finals again. One of the best Tangos ever on this show.
Anyway, what a great night. I loved the “Raining Men” performance. Sherri was a hoot. I very much enjoyed the “Shaft” performance as well with Jaleel which was so fitting for him. Such cool choreography for it. And how about Roshon and Chelsie’s freestyle? Excellent!!
I just watched part of the show back and when Tom announced that William and Cheryl were 3rd Carrie Annes mouth dropped in astonishment, I truly believe that she and Bruno thought William was either going to win or be 2nd. (Note: I didn’t notice any reactions at that moment, because I was jubilant that Donald was going to win it all, and Cheryl was going down).
This was probably one of my favorite DWTS Finale Results nights ever. The cast and all of the entertainment was fabulous. And Gladys….. WOW!
It was one of my favorite finales too….and ummmm, Sandy, speaking of noticing things…. did you all notice who was one of the first to run to Peta and congratulate her after the announcement? Just wondering.
i didn’t notice, Vogue, but I assume you mean Maks? If the rumor is true, I can only think that she’s had something to do with the new Maks’ attitude …. and I like it ….. a lot!
Yep, you called it Megs!! I’m liking his attitude a lot too and he seems more at peace. If true, I wish them the best and hopefully the media and obsessed fans will leave them alone.
All is right with the world, with the Donald/Peta win. I bet Cheryl thought she had it in the bag!
And speaking of Maks and Peta, from his tweets, it sounds like he was on the private plane with the three finalists heading for New York. As Peta’s guest?
I thought it was a super entertaining finale and I’m glad it turned out like it did 🙂
Does anyone know if they post the “send off” videos from 2nd and 1st place anywhere?
And Peta is just a delight, she did an absolutely amazing job this season, her choreography was fantastic, her partnership with Donald was ah-mazing, and she is definitely an asset to have join the female pro team.
Thank goodness Donald asked to be paired with her this season and we were able to ride along on their unforgettable journey. One of my favorite seasons ever!
Marlene, he lives in NYC. He probably just caught a ride with them much like others (Tony and Carson) have in the past.
Well of course, that’s possible too, Miss Heidi. 🙂
Yes, children, comment moderation is still on so you can try to give your opinion on everyone who posts here, but no one will see it but me. And I just laugh and hit “delete”. 🙂
Normally, I would give a lot of credit to the pro for winning, but I really do think that Donald is primarily responsible for winning the MBT, not only because of his strong and rabid fanbase, but also because of his prior knowledge of the show. Donald was probably the strategist on that team.
Also, I thought Katherine and Mark had the best dance of the competitors last night. They did a completely new routine, unlike Donald and William. I don’t know whether it would have changed anything since they did come in second (justice prevailed to some extent), but Katherine might have garnered more fans earlier in the season if she had done that jive first. To me it was her best dance of the season because it combined both technique and performance. She really let herself go and seemed to enjoy dancing.
Lastly, a thank you to TPTB that listened to fans and let Roshon and Chelsea dance a freestyle. Loved it. My favorite dance of the night, but then I’m biased.
It seems HOPEFULLY, the water is under the bridge…as far as Maks, Karina, etc. On an elimination night they hugged it out twice, Karina & peta work on trio dance with Peta “dating” Maks, last night Karina sat next to Val chatting it up and he put his arms around Ann & Karina (just before the Peta & Donald package before his cha cha cha). She was also on GMA one morning with Tony and was goofing on Maks. Adding him now being with Peta, another nice, beautiful, talented lady….I think is the most calm in the last 2 years. Glad everyone has moved on….better for the show 🙂
Another great season…thanks to all who run the site and contribute.
Peta has said they are NOT dating twice now…not quite sure why no one believes them. I’ve not seen any indication of dating, in any case. Just talk.
I agree with all of you who said last night’s finale was your favorite! I loved it from start to finish. The raining men dance was awesome, and I loved Chelsie and Roshon’s freestyle! Maks did seem to have more pep in his step last night didn’t he? I never heard about Peta and Damien breaking up though, did they? That sort of makes me sad if they did, because I thought they were together for a really long time. Also kind of weird that Peta and Karina seem to be such good friends, if Peta and Maks ARE dating. I did, however, see Maks pick Cheryl up and give her a big hug there at the end, too, so maybe he’s just close friends with all of them?
Anyway, that’s not what’s important 🙂 I’m so happy Donald and Peta won! And I was loving William getting 3rd until they showed his son crying in the audience (or, I think he was…his mother was covering his face and holding him close to her). That broke my heart. Still though, and more for Cheryl than for William, I’m glad they didn’t win. She didn’t deserve it. She seems to have that Mark-itis this season, where she turned into an idiot. Thank God we had “old” Mark this season or the two of them together may have been unbearable for me.
I can’t wait to hear what pros/celebs will be on the All Star season. I’ve really enjoyed coming here to Pure thoughout season 14 and discussing everything with everyone. It has really made DWTS more fun.
Heidi, I wrote my comment before I saw yours above or I wouldn’t even have mentined Maks and Peta! I’m skeptical about the dating rumors as well.
So I have an idea for you guys. I know you guys have those polls (fav dance, worst dance, etc) and though of one you can add to that: Best pro dance.
@Meggie: I saw that tweet too! Hopefully she declines because i think Tony would flip out. The only way I see this working is if each celeb gets a different pro partner and Maks gets her. Show her what tough really is (not that Tony isn’t tough as a teacher but comapred to Tony Maks is pretty much a gestappo lmao)
Well if that happened Vin, it would be Kate walking out this time round! lol!
Either that or quitting episode one lol. If they want a controversial contestant they should get someone else not name Kate Gosselin or Bristol Palin. I think past winners would be considered controversial enough since they won already and are the complete package so they have an advantage.
The only winner that I think wouldn’t get flack for coming back is Kelly Monaco and thats just becuase a lot of people didn’t watch season one.
Congrats for Donald and Peta to win the mirror-ball for DWTS Season 14! You were fantastic and deserved to win! FYI…Peta is wearing gorgeous custom-made pink and crystal double hoop earrings by Anne Koplik Designs. Love them!
Don’t know if Maks and Peta are dating, but they are going to Vegas together this weekend.
Did anyone catch Jimmy Kimmels comment to Peta last night on the show that Maks must be ticked that she won on her second season. It looked like she was going to say something but just started laughing after she processed the question
Besides all the chat about Peta and Maks, what do you all think about Derek and Maria? They seemed pretty attached and Maria did say that they were going to keep on kissing. P. Heidi probably knows the scoop on this one.
I was ecstatic when William was announced 3rd and was sure after that it was Donald’s victory. I think it was a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy – I thought Katherine was the best dancer, but I did not think she had a chance of winning, so I spent 2 hours Monday night voting for Donald. But I think even if people like me who were actually Katherine’s fans would have actually voted for her, probably it would still not have made a difference. I came to this realization today at my AquaArthritis class at the YMCA, where I overheard some senior ladies discussing DWTS and saying that there was no way they could let a non-American win and so voted for the only American in the finale. Got me thinking that there must have been many more “patriots” like that….
Maria has a boyfriend. There’s not much else to know, as far as I know.
I know Kym left for Vegas as well as Tristan, I believe. So the fact that Peta and Maks may heading to Vegas is no biggie to me. I usually don’t get too invested in the personal dating lives of the pros or the celebrities.
I would love to be heading to Vegas as well, I would love to see the show!
I’d love to see the show with these four in it, that’s for sure!!!
I toot my horn too Because I had them pegged to win since their pairings and Cha Cha. Mainly because I love Peta no matter who she is paired with because we are both Australians and she is the best female pro! And Donald is absolutely amazing! So happy for Peta to come back and kick all their asses. Yeah teamdrivingmisspeta
Grant, are you a Kym Johnson fan also??? I am!
so happy Donald won!!! i loved him from day one…i knew he has the fanbase to pull this off…i loved his love for DWTS..this is one man who loved the show, knew the show, come and conquered…he deserves it. William…i really like this guy, he is stunning, funny and amazingly decent….his son crying…broke my heart…he tearing up at his message …melted my heart…too bad for this partner who did not appreciate the gen that she had… she totally lost that MBT with the freestyle … AGAIN…is she losing her touch?? ..on GMA she said…she wanted the world to see he is more than a pretty face ..that he is talented…only if she had done as she said…and Kat…a beautiful dancer..she deserved to be in that final…i loved that she brought us the funny Mark back…i really liked him this season.
have to say …i loved the AT Maria and Derek performed….it was 10 times better than the first time..and Maria executed it perfectly!! i also loved Roshon’s freestyle … that boy can dance… i loved it..Gavin was soo funny enjoying the girls and the last dance with Karina …and Tom was right..that was one happy Sheerie i saw on the dance floor…i loved the number 🙂
Season 14 definitely opened and ended with a bang. This season’s 1st and last episodes were the best out of all 14seasons in my opinion!
Does anyone else think it wasn’t a coincidence that they chose Donald’s Freestyle for an encore? If memory serves me, they NEVER do an encore for the Finale.
I don’t remember that ever happening either, Tony, but I figure they must have had time in the show. Cuz really, it makes no difference a that point. Voting is already done.
That said, the encore is chosen immediately after the performance show, typically. Seeing as how it was easily the best dance of the night, it’s no surprise.
the best finale of all seasons. glad donald won because that freestyle was GREAT. Loved Katherine too but sadly there can only be one winner.
So happy Donald won and Katherine was able to snag runner up. I like William, but probably would’ve been much better off without Cheryl as a partner. Did anyone else notice that at the end of the video when they’re celebrating Donald’s win that Karina and Maks actually hugged and looked happy to be around each other?! O_o I hope they change around the partners for the All-Stars season. I want to see Anna dance with Gilles!
Steve, they had hug and kissed in the face when she and Gavin left…
Maks was on the jet to NY with Peta, then she accompanied him to CT for his studio launch, and they’re going to LV together this weekend… They’re so dating!
I also thought Maks gave Karina a big hug behind the Donald victory celebrations, but then realized it was Cheryl he was hugging and picking up.
Oh no Elsee, I’m sure they’re “just good friends”, as Peta said when asked! ::wink:: 😉
Can someone tell me the song title and artist that was used for Donald’s final dance on Tues night?????? It’s making me crazy.
Sharyn,
I think it is “Beggin’,” an old Franki Valli song redone by Madcon.
Thanks. I knew I had heard it from long time ago.
