I recently invited readers of Pure Dancing with the Stars to vote for the Dancing with the Stars 2009 winner. I posted 2 polls asking “Who do you WANT to be the Dancing with the Stars 2009 winner?” and “Who WILL be the Dancing with the Stars 2009 Winner?”

The following are the predictions for will become the Dancing with the Stars 2009 winner:

Who do you WANT to be the Dancing with the Stars 2009 winner?

Who WILL be the Dancing with the Stars 2009 Winner?

Looks like Shawn Johnson has a lot to look forward to on the finale of Dancing with the Stars season 8. Although, I have to admit that this has to be the closest race ever in the history of Dancing with the Stars. I said previously that it reminds me of back when Mario Lopez and Joey Fatone were really close.

We’re down to the final 3 on Dancing with the Stars 2009 and so it’s time for you to make your voice heard. I don’t think it’s fair to only do one poll. So, I divided it into to polls to allow you to vote for who will be the winner of Dancing with the Stars Season 8 and who you want to be the winner of Dancing with the Stars Season 8. Let us know the reasoning for your DWTS 2009 vote in the comments.

Now who do you WANT to be the Dancing with the Stars 2009 winner…

Disclaimer: This is just a fun poll done by Pure DWTS and has no relation to ABC or Dancing with the Stars.

Last week I posted a poll to predict who will be the winner of Dancing with the Stars Season 8. The results from the voting is in and I must admit that I’m not surprised by the voting. That’s a bad sign for the show. Unless of course, the Pure Dancing with the Stars readers are wrong, but that has yet to happen on the big things.

Here are the results of the voting for winner of Dancing with the Stars season 8:
Gilles Marini - 43.14%
Shawn Johnson - 20.26%
Melissa Rycroft - 19.61%
Lil’ Kim - 9.80%
Chuck Wicks - 4.58%
Ty Murray - 1.31%
Lawrence Taylor - 1.31%

Looks like people have predicted that Cheryl Burke is going to take home another Mirror Ball Trophy. Gilles dancing definitely deserves it. We’ll see if his and Cheryl’s fans can do their part.

I have to admit that this season of Dancing with the Stars has been one of the hardest seasons to predict. However, I’m really happy to say that the previous Dancing with the Stars voting we did correctly predicted 6 of the top 7 on DWTS 8. The only mistake was the poll chose Steve-O over Lawrence Taylor.

So, I’m putting my trust in the incredible Pure Dancing with the Stars readership to vote for who you think will be the Dancing with the Stars 2009 winner. You can only vote once for your favorite star below.

Now that we’ve had a chance to see each of the celebrities on Dancing with the Stars dance twice, it’s time to vote on who you think is going to win Dancing with the Stars season 8. You can vote for only one celebrity from Dancing with the Stars in this poll. I’ll look at doing a future Dancing with the Stars vote where you can vote for the top 3 and another one where you can vote for all of your favorite Dancing with the Stars celebrities.

Now that we know the full Dancing with the Stars cast, it’s time to see which of the stars are your favorite. Vote for your favorite Dancing with the Stars star in the poll below. You can only vote for one DWTS star. I wonder which star will garner the most votes.

Let us know why they’re your favorite in the comments. Also, I’d love to hear who you think will be their professional partner.

Tonight they announced that no one was sent home on DWTS, but that the scores from this week would be carried over to next week. That means we have a pretty good idea that Maurice and Cheryl, Warren and Kym and Brooke and Derek are safe. The rest depends on how well they score next week and how many people vote next week.

The question is which of the other bottom couples will be going home on next week’s dancing with the stars. Remember that votes on Dancing with the Stars seem to count for quite a bit since Cloris was able to make up 4 points on Rocco with fan voting.

I think I’m going make an emotional vote on this Dancing with the Stars poll.

In anticipation of the premier of Dancing with the Stars, I figured I’d find out which of the couples are people’s favorites before we’ve even seen them dance.

Leave a comment on why they’re your favorites and why they deserve to win season 7 of Dancing with the Stars.
