Dancing With The Stars Recap - Season 13, Final Week!

Dancing With The Stars Recap - Season 13, Final Week!

Well, the big night has finally arrived and in the words of our own Brooke Burke, we can't believe how fast this season has flown by!

We're just a few hours away from the finale of Dancing with the Stars and after the performances last night it seems like it's anyone's game.

Here are some highlight from last night's episode:

Talk about a dark horse! Rob Kardashian pulled out his A-game in a big way last night, giving the performance of a lifetime with partner Cheryl Burke. "Rob, you've given your all. You should be proud," Judge Len Goodman told the reality star. "Your family should be proud." And speaking of family, the Kardashian clan showed up in full force to cheer their bro on - and he gave them something to applaud. The couple's freestyle performance earned perfect scores and rave reviews from the judges. No one can deny that Rob saved the best for last, but will it be enough for the win?

J.R. Martinez and Karina Smirnoff got uncharacteristically low scores on their first performance but bounced back with a high-energy freestyle that earned 10s across the board. And as always, part of their charm is their teamwork - "We both want to win it for each other," said Martinez. "It would be an amazing thing. It’d be her first Mirror Ball Ttrophy, which she deserves." Aww. We heart J.R.

And last but certainly not least, the power duo of Ricki Lake and Derek Hough. These two have been on the top of the leader board for most of the season and they didn't disappoint us last night. With an entertaining cha-cha and a fast-paced freestyle, they got solid marks and plenty of praise from the judges. "Tonight, you were definitely living the dance," said Carrie Ann Inaba.

Here are the final scores:

Rob Kardashian & Cheryl Burke - 57

Ricki Lake & Derek Hough - 54

J.R. Martinez & Karina Smirnoff - 54

Three couples are competing for the coveted Mirror Ball trophy, but only one can take home top honors. Who will it be? Tune in tonight to watch the exciting conclusion of DWTS - Season 13!
