ABC's "Dancing With The Stars" season 21 finale will be a two-night dance competition, which starts on Nov. 23, Monday. The four finalists will dance off and the couple with the lowest scores will not join the second part of the finale on Nov. 24, Tuesday, for a chance to claim the mirror ball trophy.
While dance performances on "Dancing With The Stars" season 21 will receive a combined score by judges and viewers, all 13 of the contestants will return to take part in the final two dances, USA Today reported.
Bindi Irwin, daughter of the late Aussie crocodile enthusiast and wildlife expert Steve Irwin, is in good shape to take the trophy with Derek Hough. Judges feel the mirror-ball trophy is equally within the reach of Bindi and the other three contestants Nick Carter, Carlos PenaVega and Alek Skarlatos.
"Bindi's been strong and she's been the leader horse out in the front, but I feel like these other guys, the three men, are right on her tail," TV Guide quoted "Dancing With The Stars" season 21 judge Carrie Ann Inaba as saying. She added that among the three of them, she feels like it is "a neck-and-neck run."
"Maybe Nick is just a hair ahead of the other guys, but who knows?" Inaba said. "Because they're all on this incredible growth trajectory."
Inaba noted that the "Dancing With The Stars" season 21 finale would include some eye-catching moments, and sometimes, these maneuvers will make the dancers stand out and sometimes, it will backfire.
The judges will be asking the "Dancing With The Stars" season 21 pro dancers to repeat one of their previous dance renditions. This would also be a great chance for them to show the judges what they have learned and how they have improved over the season.
