Who Will Take Home the Glittering Prize?

The stage is set for the final showdown of Dancing With the Stars Season 34! Five talented pairs will battle it out for the coveted mirror ball trophy in a first-of-its-kind finale featuring three intense dance rounds: a Judges’ Choice, an Instant Dance, and a freestyle. Who will shine brightest?

The Favorites

Robert Irwin and his dance partner Witney Carson are the clear frontrunners. Irwin, son of the late Steve Irwin, has been a standout from the start. He's not just a fan favorite but also a top scorer, even earning a perfect 40/40 in Week 9. If he wins, it'll be a family victory, as his sister Bindi Irwin took home the trophy in Season 21.

The Underdog

Dylan Efron, younger brother of Zac Efron, might be the underdog. He and his partner Daniella Karagach had the lowest semifinal scores, but Efron has shown his skills with a perfect score in Week 9 and a heartfelt dance dedicated to his sister Olivia.

Semifinal Showdown

Last week, the semifinalists paid tribute to Prince with two dances each. Irwin and Carson topped the charts with a combined score of 59/60, while Efron and Karagach scored the lowest with 55/60. Whitney Leavitt and Mark Ballas were shockingly eliminated, leaving four couples to fight for the trophy.

Looking Back at the Season

Throughout the season, Elaine Hendrix and Alan Bersten, Alix Earle and Val Chmerkovskiy, Jordan Chiles and Ezra Sosa, and Robert Irwin and Witney Carson have all had their moments. Who will come out on top? The votes will decide!
