New dancing with the stars professional Lacey Schwimmer partnered with Lance Bass, spoke out about the low scores that she and her partner have received in some of the dances earlier on in the season. As a contemporary and modern dancer, Lacey’s choreography is young, fresh and hip. This alternate style has caused a clash between the new and old, especially with conservative judge, Len Goodman who disliked the couple’s dances for various reasons. It seems to me that people need to accept change and innovation or else dance would not have evolved to the place it is today. Overall, Lacey Schwimmer adds personality to DWTS and this should be a sigh of relief to most.

Last night, a new champion was crowned as dancing with the stars competitor Brooke Burke delivered her final, emotionally touching dance of the evening, a Viennese waltz dedicated to her two daughters. The former host of E!’s “Wild On” and CBS’ “Rock Star” was a favorite from the outset, coming in first place 8 out of 10 times and receiving high scores from even the toughest judge, Len Goodman. Most amazing is the way that Brooke Burke seemed as if she had been dancing all her life. Her athletic physique gave her an added advantage as she looked and played the part of a professional dancer. At 37, Brooke is definitely an inspiration to the public as she has shown that we can all dance if we really want to work at it.

Following Brooke in second place was football star, Warren Sapp, who for a 300 pound man is surprisingly light on his feet.
Third place went to my personal favourite, Lance Bass, who was a risk taker in his challenging choreography and outstanding pop moves. I am pleased to see however, that the winner this season won due to her talent and skill, as opposed to popularity in pop culture. Take for example, the typical situation where a football player has won in the past season over a more talented but less popular dancer. This is not the last time you will see the contestants and professional dancers of this season ; a 38-city “Dancing with the Stars” tour, will begin December the  17th in San Diego.
