A news by 4usnews:Part one of the Dancing with the Stars 2010 finale aired Monday night, with Bristol Palin facing off against Kyle Massey and Jennifer Gray. The sum it all up, the episode went something like this: Kyle Massey has figured out how to combine personality with technique; Bristol Palin proved once again how much she's improved since week one; and Jennifer Gray wowed just about everyone with her fabulous, fifty-year-old self.
Kyle Goes From "Messy" to "Marvelous"
Kyle Massey's Fox Trot, which earned him three nines, had Len Goodman raving "You've gone from messy Massy to marvelous." Later in the night, Kyle's hip-hop style freestyle dance to the energetic song "Tootsie Roll" earned two tens and one nine. "This old fly girl is very proud of you," Carrie Ann said. "I dub you the fresh prince of Dancing with the Stars!"
Bristol the Pistol Fires Back
Bristol Palin isn't crying over the criticism she's been facing. Instead, "Bristol the Pistol" says she is working hard to prove all of her "haters" wrong. Bristol's Jive, which pleased the judges enough to earn three nines, was a great improvement from the first time she danced the Jive while wearing a monkey suit. And her sexy Chicago-themed freestyle dance, which started out with Bristol (wearing black boots and a short black costume) dancing in a cage, earned high praise from Len. "That was no disaster...I thought it was fantastic," he said before giving her a nine. Carrie-Ann and Bruno were also impressed by Bristol's attempt, but they only felt comfortable using the eight paddle for her second dance.
Jennifer Has A Perfect Night
If tonight's winner of Dancing with the Stars will actually be the best dancer, Jennifer Gray will be going home with the mirrorball trophy! Jennifer earned two perfect scores for her performances on Monday night. The first dance was a Paso Doble that earned a standing ovation from Len Goodman and had Bruno raving that it ignited "the flames of passion." Then, Jennifer pleased Dirty Dancing fans when she danced her freestyle number to the Dirty Dancing song "Do You Love Me." She started the performance carrying a watermelon, which reminded us of the famous scene in Dirty Dancing where her character Baby Houseman met dancer Johnny Castle. Her moves also reminded us of the unforgettable scenes where Baby danced with Johnny.
The night ended with Jennifer at the top of the leaderboard -- and Bristol Palin in last place. But viewer votes will help determine who wins Dancing with the Stars tonight. Will most-improved-dancer Bristol Palin win it all? Will Kyle's personality and much-improved dancing win viewers over? Will Jennifer Gray take home the trophy for being the best dancer this season?
