Behind the Scenes with 'Dancing with the Stars'
posted 6:42 am Tue November 25, 2008
LOS ANGELES - Monday night was part one of the two-night finale for ABC 7's hit reality show, "Dancing with the Stars." The show, known for its elegant dance moves and elaborate costumes is creating a lot of buzz from Hollywood to the D.C. area.
Brooke Burke could be the one who wins "Dancing with the Stars."
The model-actress and her professional partner, Derek Hough, dominated the popular ABC dancing competition's final round Monday night, receiving a combined score of 58 out of 60 from the show's judges.
Her fellow finalists, Lance Bass and Warren Sapp, both received a combined total of 53 for their group samba and individual freestyle dances.
Burke, who has been in first place seven out of nine times during the competition, wowed the judges with a lively and twirly freestyle routine set to "You're the One That I Want" from "Grease."
Alexandria (web|news) resident Pauline Wang won an all-expense paid trip to Studio 46 in Hollywood. ABC sent her there after she submitted a tape showing off her best dance moves. "I really wanted to see those people in person," Wang said.
The seventh-season champion of "Dancing with the Stars" will be crowned Tuesday night after viewer votes are combined with the judges' score.
