The All Star Finals Are Here! Live Scores!

Good luck to Kelly Monaco, Melissa Rycroft and Shawn Johnson!

Two dances tonight. The first is the couples choice - the dance they think will score the most. Then there is the "Super Size Freestyle" where they can add dancers.

Here are the scores of the couples' choice:

Kelly/Val - Paso Doble - very good but wobbly in parts. The judges were effusive (but that's to be expected of course, it's the finals!) - 9.5/10/10=29.5

Melissa/Tony - Samba - Melissa is really a very good dancer - 10/10/10=30

Shawn/Derek - Quickstep - breaking the rules again, tsk tsk. Carrie Ann and Len weren't happy. Bruno is always happy! - 9/8.5/9.5=27

And now the freestyles:

Kelly/Val - "Time of My Life" from Dirty Dancing - kicked off with Val on his fiddle and Kelly hanging from the ceiling. Then went into a group number. Very enjoyable. Len would have liked more originality. - 10/9.5/10=29.5

Melissa/Tony - Tony chose contemporary. They were very very good technically, but the choreography seemed a bit off to me, a little soul-less. Bruno called it a gem. Carrie Ann said jackpot. Len was speechless. Shows what I know! - 10/10/10=30 (Len wished he had an 11).

Shawn/Derek - Shawn was able to get the Fierce Five to Jon them in their freestyle. Not Derek's best choreography but still the best of the three (to me). Sensational - Carrie Ann. Gold medal performance - Len. Brilliance - Bruno. 10/10/10=30

So, the judges' scores are very close an, as we know, don't really make a huge difference percentage wise.

Tomorrow the couples have an instant dance. Plus there is the normal fun and fillers in the finale!
