SPOILER ALERT: This post includes information about the winner of the mirrorball trophy in the Dancing with the Stars Season 33 finale.

A Season 33 winner of Dancing with the Stars has been formally announced.

In Tuesday night’s long three-hour finale, which included professional performances and reflections on the previous nine episodes, five couples competed because no one went home last week. Let’s review each couple’s last two performances to see how they performed before determining the winner.

The redemption dances came first, in which the judges allow each competitor to practice a dance move they struggled with so they can demonstrate their progress.

Olympian Stephen Nedoroscik and Rylee Arnold. The Olympic gymnast enters rehearsals prepared to perform his Quick Step flawlessly. He and Arnold were “running on top gear,” according to judge Bruno Tonioli, who selected the Quick Step for them as a redemption dance, as they danced around the dance floor to the song “I’ll Be There For You” by The Rembrandts. They were dressed entirely in pink. 29 points out of 30.

Jenna Johnson, Joey Graziadei’s partner on The Bachelor. Derek Hough assigned the reality TV star a Cha Cha as her redemption dance. Johnson is making it much more difficult this time around because Hough wants to see the couple take that dance to “the next level,” which Graziadei first attempted in Week 1. Great reward, high risk. It also paid off. It was not a dance of atonement. After the dance, Hough informed Graziadei, “That was a punctuation mark, letting everyone know you are a contender [for the mirrorball trophy].”. 30 out of 30 is the score.

Witney Carson and Super Bowl champion Danny Amendola. The football professional is prepared to demonstrate his progress with this redemption dance after a long journey on Dancing with the Stars. Hough gives Carson and Amendola the Tango, a dance he taught them in Week 1. Amendola can’t concentrate too hard this time around because he needs to show more emotion in order to receive the scores he wants because the choreography is much more challenging. “Although you were as muscular as ever, you really tried very, very hard with the lines, the shape, and the placement of the steps,” Tonioli informed him. “You put in a lot of effort, and it shows. Rating: 27 out of 30.

Ilona Maher, Olympic rugby player, and Alan Bersten, their partner. When Maher and Bersten take on the Jive again, Tonioli wants to see it. Though the choreography is more difficult and the stakes are higher this time, the Olympian is aware that it is the ideal redemption dance for her to perform. That was irrelevant, though, because she killed it anyhow. Carrie Ann Inaba exultantly exclaimed, “Redemption is yours!” because the improvements were so evident. Score: 27 out of 30.

Chandler Kinney, who costarred with Brandon Armstrong on Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin. Kinney wants to achieve flawless scores this week once more, but like Maher, she must first pass the Jive. She is eager to rehearse the dance that Inaba assigned her after a few more weeks of competition. Tonioli told Kinney she went “beyond redemption” to a “triumph,” demonstrating the judges’ admiration. It is understandable why she received a flawless grade. 30 points out of 30.

Let’s now examine those freestyles. Before a winner is announced, there is still one more dance!

Nedoroscik and Arnold. The freestyle round, in which all bets are off, begins with these two. Nedoroscik is resolved to use some of his gymnastics abilities on the ballroom floor because there are no regulations. Their flamboyant farewell dance, which naturally includes a pommel horse, is set to Coldplay’s “Viva La Vida.”. The performance was “athletic and artistic at the same time,” according to Tonioli, and it moved Inaba to tears. It seems appropriate that they received their first flawless score for it. A total of 30 points.

Graziadei and Johnson Inc. In order to win the mirrorball trophy, the former Bachelor must perfect his freestyle after receiving a perfect score for their redemption Cha Cha. Graziadei wants to honor his tennis heritage while showcasing everything he has learned over the past ten episodes in this dance. The judges give Graziadei and Johnson a lot of praise for their dynamic freestyle while holding tennis rackets, but Inaba thought it was a little lackluster. Tonioli disagreed with a shocked Hough. Hough remarked, “Joey, that was amazing. How dare you, Carrie Ann?”. 29 out of 30 points.

Carson and Amendola. During his freestyle, Amendola can let loose and demonstrate his strength. According to Carson, they chose a Barbie theme for this dance because she wants to show that “anything is possible.”. The dance is “one of the most entertaining things I’ve ever seen on this show,” according to Hough, who also describes Amendola as a “moment maker.”. Rating: 29 out of 30.

Bersten and Maher. Even if she doesn’t take home the trophy, Maher says she feels like she has already won after spending the entire season giving it her all on the ballroom floor. She truly lights up the dance floor with her freestyle to “Femininomenon” by Chappell Roan. Tonioli tells her, “You’re shining brighter than ever.”. When they achieve their first perfect score, Bersten instinctively picks Maher up and spins her around. 30 out of 30 is the score.

Kinney and Armstrong. The actress showcases Kinney’s willingness to try new things in a freestyle as she ends the evening. Lifts and tricks abound as Kinney and Armstrong compete for the mirrorball trophy. The judges give the season’s last competitive dance their blessing. In addition to being amazing, the dance celebrates the fact that these two are the first Black couple to appear in the Dancing with the Stars finale. A total of 30 points.

Neither the judges nor the fans found this decision to be simple, but Joey and Jenna are the couple who won the mirrorball!
