Dancing With the Stars Finals Recap: Rob Kardashian Takes Command!
1 year ago
The 13th season of Dancing With the Stars has come down to one night.
Ricki Lake. Rob Kardashian. J.R. Martinez. All worthy parquet performers, as we know, but there can be only one Mirror Ball holder at the end of this. Who will it be?
Apparently no one told Rob that J.R. and Ricki were the consensus picks all season long, or that he was a 4-1 underdog headed into the final Monday of the season.
Because he’s in sole possession of the lead right now!
His lead is only three points over both competitors, so this is going down to the wire. But who thought Rob Kardashian would be here now,

The last two weeks of Dancing With the Stars haven’t surprised us. Nancy Grace lasted longer than people expected, and Hope Solo couldn’t hang with the top three.
Going into the finals, it really is anyone’s game. J.R. Martinez, Rob Kardashian and Ricki Lake all deserve to be there, and have decent shots at the Mirror Ball.
Who’s technically the biggest favorite, though?
According to Bodog, an online gambling site, J.R. Martinez has the best odds to win at 1 to 2. Ricki Lake holds 3 to 1 odds, while Rob has a 4 to 1 chance of winning.
That’s right, even after an ankle injury left him in a

J.R. Martinez and Ricki Lake have been swapping the first place spot all season on Dancing With the Stars. Last night, it was definitely the latter’s turn on top.
While he’s never one to complain (look at all he’s been through in life), J.R. rolled his right ankle in rehearsal and then twisted it again during his routines.
The famous smile that lights up the dance floor was barely there Monday, replaced by grimaces of pain and looks of disappointment. His posture was off.
J.R. and Karina Smirnoff did manage to turn in a sexy Argentine tango to make up for a subpar Paso Doble, but it’ll be

Performing last in each portion Monday night, Ricki and Derek did their best to quash the competition on Dancing With the Stars. Each time, they were successful.
Their samba was fun and fabulous, with Bruno calling it “sizzling hot, bright and brilliant from beginning to end.” The others agreed. Three perfect 10s for 30.
Then it was on to the Argentine tango, a smooth, graceful effort that seamlessly meshed footwork with emotion and landed them just a point shy of perfection.
Are we looking at the next Mirror Ball holder? You tell us:

The Dancing With the Stars field is down to five.
Who among the remaining hopefuls, who square off again tonight, stands the best chance of victory? Let’s take a look at who’s left standing, then put it to a vote …
- Nancy Grace will not win Dancing With the Stars.
- Hope Solo has shown improvement throughout the season, and her best may be yet to come. Still, the judges seem underwhelmed (to the chagrin of Maksim Chmerkovskiy) and a surge to the finals will be a tall order.
- Rob Kardashian has been the season’s biggest surprise. He’s been consistently solid and is very well-liked, despite

Add Ricki Lake to the list of celebrities who have participated in what has become America’s unofficial celebrity weight loss show: Dancing With the Stars.
She may not have lost the 100 pounds boasted by one recent finalist (check out these Kirstie Alley weight loss pics), but Lake has certainly slimmed down.
You can see difference from the pre-season promo pic to the present:
Ricki Lake has lost 20 pounds of weight on DWTS.
Lake is clearly enjoying her thinner frame, and looking healthy and wonderful while doing it. Ricki’s also maintaining a healthy attitude towards the process.
