The finale is here! Zendaya, Kellie Pickler, Jacoby Jones and Aly Raisman fought hard for that mirror ball trophy, but Kellie and Zendaya destroyed their competition, making this a two horse race for the win!
The season finale of Dancing With the Stars began on May 20 and while Kellie Pickler and Zendaya brought their A game and got perfect scores, Jacoby Jones and Aly Raisman fell a little flat. Zendaya pulled out all stops and won the Cha Cha challenge, while Aly got sexy and pole danced for the freestyle round and Kellie moved Carrie Ann Inaba to tears with her performance. The first of a two night finale, Kellie and Zendaya proved that they are the ones to beat!
‘Dancing With The Stars': The Scores
Jacoby Jones & Karina Smirnoff: (27/30) Jacoby and Karina danced a jive to “Shake It,” and they rocked it! Len Goodman said there was “improvement,” while Bruno Tonioli loved it but said he lost footing. I thought Jacoby was pretty good, but that definitely was not good enough for the finale!
Super Freestyle Round: (27/30) Jacoby killed it! It felt like Mardi Gras in New Orleans during Jacoby’s free style dance. There was stomping of feet and beating of drums, but Jacoby did make a lot of mistakes… However, the energy was so amazing it didn’t seem to matter!
Aly Raisman & Mark Ballas: (28/30) Aly was amazing! Dancing the samba to Shakira, Aly’s hips didn’t lie, and the judges loved it! Carrie Ann called Aly the full package, and Len said it was full of “sexy moves.” Somehow Aly didn’t get a perfect score, which was so unfair.
Super Freestyle Round: (30/30) Aly got sexy and pole danced for her free style round and it was fantastic! Being a professional gymnast, Aly used her strength to climb the pole and gave a stunning performance, and Len even called her “Alexander the Great!”
Kellie Pickler & Derek Hough: (30/30) Kellie and Derek danced a quick step, and Kellie looked just like Marilyn Monroe! Derek pulled a Jacoby move and jumped over Kellie’s head, and they were seriously awesome! The judges loved it and Bruno called it “fantastic,” while Carrie Ann thanked them for improving on her one critique. Kellie is looking like the front runner right now!
Super Freestyle Round: (30/30) Kellie was literally weightless during her contemporary dance, and it was utterly stunning! Carrie Ann even broke down in tears after! It was so beautiful, and she got a standing ovation from the entire room. Bruno called it “spell binding,” while Len stood up and clapped. It was absolutely one of the best dances this whole season. Kellie is killing the competition!
Zendaya & Val Chmerkovskiy: (30/30) Len called Zendaya’s Samba “eye popping” and overall her critique was amazing. Bruno said she has a “natural flamboyancy.” I thought Zendaya and Val totally killed it, and Zendaya proved she is a truly sensational dancer. I think I see a mirror ball trophy in her future!
Super Freestyle Round: (30/30) Zendaya was fabulous at the freestyle dancing! Dancing a hip hop slash contemporary number, Zendaya was simply wonderful. Rocking out to Justin Bieber‘s “Beauty and A Beat,” Zendaya leaped off a stage, and Carrie Ann said it was the “perfect way to take it home.” She really was amazing.
Zendaya Wins The Cha Cha Relay
The four couples then competed in a Cha Cha relay, and it was the highlight of the night! Each star was better than the next, but the judges chose Zendaya as the winner!
Jacoby came fourth, Aly came third and Kellie came second.
The first of the two night finale, Zendaya and Kellie really tore down the competition. I predict they will be in the final two, but it is impossible to call a winner!
What do YOU think HollywoodLifers? Who is going to win?

Zendaya should win DWTS, because she’s working harder than anyone else in the competition and she dances amazingly every time…<3 Zendaya forever! :))

These two are some of the best DWTS has ever seen. Loved that they both brought their own special touch to the season. So glad to see Kellie finally tap into true emotion on the dancefloor. Brilliant.
I still like Zendaya better. I am more into footwork and sync dancing then grace and flexibility.Really a matter of taste.
Best dance of the season was the kellie freestyle. I don’t think one dance should determine winner. I also like Zens abilty to perform with emotion and character.
My votes went to Zen.
Yes “sppat,” Kellie and Zendaya are a close call, too close to even call because of how competitive they have been this season. Their scores are consistent and neither has been in the bottom even once. DWTS is our family’s favorite show, but we have so many activities with my kids, especially end of the school year. I’m glad that I can always watch the next morning before I get to my job at DISH because I like to know what happened before everyone at the office talks about it. I’m guaranteed because my DISH Hopper records all of the shows during primetime hours on ABC and the other major networks for me. This is gives me peace of mind that it will be there even when the show time changes, I have conflicts with recordings or, so I don’t forget to set timers.
Zendaya took the safe road in the free style. She mailed in her performance and should NOT get a perfect score! Kellie’s performance was so much more out there! The pure emotion alone trounce everything Zendaya did!

Let’s face it, Kellie could never have done Zendaya’s performance last night. Just as Zendaya could not have done Kellies. Neither was safe. They are addressing a different audience. Zendayas fan watch MTV and love the sync and footwork. They also brought on the kids which is never safe. Give credit where it is due. Kellies freestyle was my favorite and her best dance by far all season. Props to Derrick. He did it again.

Zendaya is better. But it’s Zendaya, one celeb, vs Kellie and Derek, 2 celebs, and that’s I’d where the “unfair” comes into play. I suspect Kellie will win, even though she doesn’t really deserve to, because of Derek Hough, who really should be allowed on this show anymore. When you look at the dynamics as they currently exist, if he keeps returning, I’m not sure Derek will ever lose again, but it’s patently unfair to everyone else. Because he’s the last remaining pro dancer who is both a pro and a celebrity. There were others, besides Derek, but they are all gone now.

It’s not fair that Kellie be punished for the luck of the draw. Kelly has talent and she’s smart and any one of the other dancing pros could have brought that out in Kelly and made her a champion dancer, but she has Derek Hough and they are a good team and deserve to win.
There is more to the dance than just the steps. If you couldn’t see Kellie’s freestyle had more, I feel sorry for you. Derek choreographed it, but Kellie brought it to life!
I totaly agree with you, can anyone ever think of a partner that Derek had that was bad, I realize he can dance but it is unfair that always gets a good partner, I think he is a big cry baby and would not be on the show if he doesn’t get a good partner. No disrespect but I have seen quite a few women on the show that could not dance but he never was partnered with any of them.
Kellie!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it is unfair how the judges are favoring Zendaya. I think Kellie should win,

Zendaya won 2 out of the last 3 weeks and had perfect scores in 5 out of her final 6 routines. Kellie did not finish in first in any of the last 3 weeks.

I hope with all might that Kellie and Derek win!! She has such natural talent and her dancing is so beautiful. I think Zendaya is also really good, but she has her own dancing show on Disney. Granted its not the se type of dancing, but she has had the experience and Is familiar with the moves. Kellie deserves to win because she has worked so hard and the judges just love her!! Even if they don’t win, they were amazing throughout the season and worked their butts off to improve and make better dance routines!!
So Kellie deserves to win because she has worked so hard? Are you saying that the other three didn’t work hard? Comments like this are so stupid.
If anyone has ever watched Zendaya’s show, they would know that there is very little dancing on it and the dancing that is on it usually spotlights professional dancers. Zendaya and Bella are usually dancing in the background. There is far more acting than dancing. I would say that all the singers that have been on the show and is on the show now do just as much dancing.
zendaya deserve the mbt because it is not about who owns abc she is good dancer wins it based own her talents and good dancing that wins it
