Dancing with the Stars Finale

Posted by Deanna Couras Goodson Nov 11, 2006

Joey Lawrence, Emmitt Smith and Mario Lopez had matching scores as the show ended Tuesday night. That means the judges left it up to the people of the United States to vote for their two finalists.

Boy, Americans had a busy Tuesday! First, they voted the Republicans out of the House and Senate, and then they had to decide who would be representing our best dancing D-list superstar on the finale. Does our work never end?

Emmitt Smith, who wouldn't have been my choice, hoofed his way into the finale. Emmitt is now favored to win. Mario was the odds-on choice from the beginning, but not any more.
