Carlos Penavega and his partner Whitney Carson landed in fourth place in season 21. They definitely should have made it to the final two. Of course they weren't going to win, but they were a strong team. At a point during the competition, I thought that they had a huge chance of winning. Carlos was good at ballroom dances, and he was good at jazz. He was never afraid to try something new, which is a risk. I expected more from his freestyle hip hop dance. I thought it would be more fun and energetic. Sadly, I felt like Carlos didn't do much dancing, just walking around and clapping in his freestyle. I feel like if their freestyle was stronger they could have made it through to the next night. When he left the ballroom, he explained how he loved being on the show and that it was one of the best experiences of his life. I loved watching him every week because he preformed his best.

 

Season 21 of Dancing With The Stars is over, and I think the right couple won. Bindi Irwin and her partner Derek Hough were the champions. They definitely deserved it. This was Derek's sixth win, which is four more wins than any other pro. Bindi was always such a happy person which got her tons of votes. Not only did she have a great personality, but she was an amazing dancer. As I look back at her dances, there wasn't a single dance that I thought was boring. She's such an energetic dancer who brings so much to the ballroom. Derek said that she was one of the best partners he has ever had on the show. Her freestyle dance made the judges cry. It was a beautiful contemporary piece that was dedicated to her father. It was one of the best freestyles I have ever seen on the show. It made me want Bindi to win even more. In the end, Bindi definitely deserved the Mirrorball trophy.
