Shawn Johnson, 17, is the youngest competitor in Dancing With the Stars history.
The dancing competition is always fierce; and with former Dallas Cowboys cheerleader Melissa Rycroft and smooth hip-shaker Gilles Marini, Shawn had to work hard for the title. But the short and cutesy Olympian gold medalist managed to walk away with her shiny trophy last night. Shawn reportedly won by under 1% of the majority of votes. Shawn is so gifted on the dance floor, her win is well deserved!
Johnson's other winning routine? The mirror-ball trophy dance, which she and Ballas did while confetti rained down on the incredulous pair. So what does Johnson plan on doing with her shiny new trophy?
"I'm going to put my gold medal around it because it was the Olympics that got me here in the first place."

She did an awesome job! I watched this show on and off all season and I did watch the finale last night. I am really happy she won. She is so cute and can't dance pretty damn good! I want to learn to dance like this mainly for the body that comes with it! HELLO!

Put me on the record as saying that the mirror-ball trophy is THE dumbest name for an award ever. That's all.
