SPOILER ALERT! This post contains details of the season 33 finale of Dancing with the starsincluding who wins the mirror ball trophy.

Dancing with the stars has officially crowned the winner of season 33.

No one went home last week, so five couples competed in Tuesday night’s lengthy, three-hour finale, filled with reflections on the last nine episodes and some fun performances from the pros. Before we get to the winner, let’s go through each couple’s last two performances and see how they fared.

First up were the redemption dances, where the judges gave each contestant the chance to revisit a dance style they hadn’t exactly mastered so they can show off their improvements.

Olympian Stephen Nedoroscik with partner Rylee Arnold. The Olympic gymnast is ready to get his Quick Step from the moment he steps into rehearsals. As he pranced around the dance floor to the tune of ‘I’ll Be There For You’ by The Rembrandts, dressed in pink outfits, he and Arnold were running ‘in top gear’, judged Bruno Tonioli, who chose the Quick Step for them . like a redemption dance, spoken after seeing the performance. Scoring: 29 out of 30.

The bachelor‘s Joey Graziadei with partner Jenna Johnson. The reality TV star’s redemption dance, assigned by Derek Hough, is a Cha Cha. Graziadei first tackled that dance in Week 1, and Hough wants to see the pair take it to “the next level,” so Johnson is making it a lot harder this time. High risk, high reward. And it paid off. ‘That was not a redemption dance. That was a punctuation mark, letting everyone know you were a contender (for the mirrorball trophy),” Hough told Graziadei after the dance. Score: 30 out of 30.

Super Bowl champion Danny Amendola with partner Witney Carson. The football professional has had quite a journey Dancing with the starsand he’s ready to show how far he’s come with this redemption dance. Hough assigns Amendola and Carson the Tango, a dance he performed earlier in Week 1. This time the choreography is much more difficult, and Amendola can’t concentrate too hard because he has to show a little more emotion to get the scores he’s hoping for. . “You were as muscular as ever, but the lines, the shape, the placement of the steps, you really tried hard,” Tonioli told him. “You really did your best and it shows.” Score: 27 out of 30.

Olympic rugby player Ilona Maher with partner Alan Bersten. Tonioli wants to see Maher and Bersten tackle the Jive again. The Olympian knows this is the perfect redemption dance for her, but this time the choreography is more complicated and the stakes are higher. Not that it mattered, because she killed him anyway. The improvements were so noticeable and Carrie Ann Inaba happily declared, “Salvation is yours!” Scoring: 27 out of 30.

Chandler Kinney (Pretty Little Liars: original sin) with partner Brandon Armstrong. Kinney is hoping for perfect scores again this week, but like Maher, will have to pass the Jive first. With a few more weeks of competition under her belt, she is ready to relive the dance assigned by Inaba. The judges were very impressed, with Tonioli telling Kinney that she went ‘beyond redemption’ to ‘triumph’. It’s no wonder she got a perfect score. Score: 30 out of 30.

And now let’s look at those freestyles. One more dance before a winner is crowned!

Nedoroscik and Arnold. These two start the freestyle round, where all bets are off. Since there are no rules, Nedoroscik is determined to bring some of his gymnastics skills to the ballroom. Their bombastic final dance is set to “Viva La Vida” by Coldplay and of course features a pommel horse. Tonioli says the performance was “athletic and artistic at the same time” and left Inaba in tears. It seems only fitting that it earned them their first perfect score. Scoring: 30 out of 30.

Graziadei & Johnson. After getting a perfect score for their redemption Cha Cha, the first Bachelor must take his free hit to have a chance to win the mirror ball trophy. In this dance, Graziadei wants to show everything he has learned in these ten episodes, while also giving a nod to his tennis roots. With tennis rackets in hand, Graziadei and Johnson deliver an energetic freestyle that earns them high praise from the judges, except for Inaba, who said it was a bit disappointing. A stunned Hough and Tonioli disagreed. “How dare you, Carrie Ann? Joey, that was phenomenal,” Hough said. Scoring: 29 out of 30.

Amendola & Carson. Amendola’s freestyle is a chance for him to let loose and show his strength. Carson says she wants this dance to portray that “anything is possible,” so they opt for a Barbie theme. Hough calls Amendola a “moment maker” and calls the dance “one of the most entertaining things I’ve ever seen on this show.” Score: 29 out of 30.

Maher & Bersten. After giving it her all in the ballroom all season, Maher says she feels like she’s already won, even if she doesn’t take home the trophy. Her freestyle to Chappell Roan’s “Femininomenon” really lights up the dance floor. “You shine brighter than ever!” Tonioli tells her. Bersten can’t resist picking up Maher and spinning her around as they get their first ever perfect score. Score: 30 out of 30.

Kinney & Armstrong. The actress ends the night with a freestyle that highlights Kinney’s dedication to trying new things. There are lifts and tricks galore as Kinney and Armstrong hunt for that mirrorball trophy. The final competition dance of the season gets a stamp of approval from the judges. Not only is the dance deadly, but it also honors the history these two make by being the first black couple to make it to the finals. Dancing with the stars final. Score: 30 out of 30.

The contestants certainly didn’t make this decision easy for the fans and the judges, but the couple that takes home the mirror ball is…Joey and Jenna!
