Hines Ward Wins Dancing With The Stars!
|
Congratulations to Hines Ward and his dance partner, Kym Johnson, on their Dancing with the Stars season 12 victory! He was one of the most consistent competitors during this season of Dancing with the Stars and was repeatedly commended on his dance skills by the judges. Check out this Hines Ward quote (from ABC.com): Don’t let the smile fool you. I’m in it to win it. I want the hardest choreography so I can come out strong and scare the other competitors. – Hines Ward Hines was definitely “in it to win it.” With his win, he becomes the second football player to win the competition. Hall of Famer Emmitt Smith was the first to do it in season 3. Hopefully this helps Hines get past that Super Bowl loss earlier this year! Let’s see if we’ll see a picture of the Mirror Ball Trophy next to his Super Bowl XL MVP Trophy at some point… An interesting side note from this season is that fellow mixed Korean, Priscilla Ahn, was a guest performer on the May 3rd episode. She performed her single, “Dream.”
