I didn't care that much for Mya's paso and I think that Mel B's (and Max) paso was much better...again, judge bias is a horrible thing. It makes me think that Mya has been consistently low on voting numbers and the judges are trying to keep her in the competition. Not to say she's not a really good dancer...but she kind of leaves me unimpressed every week, and I don't enjoy her dances.

LOL Naja I found a piece on tonight's show - the dance the couples do is their own choice, their favourite from the season. Here's what it said (from thefutoncritic.com): In Tuesday's two-hour Finale, the competition continues as the three finalists perform their favorite dance of the season and are ranked by the judges. Also on Tuesday, all 16 couples from Season 9 will return to the dance floor for special performances. "Iron Chef America" star Mark Dacascos and UFC champion Chuck Liddell battle it out in a dance floor face-off, while Season 2 competitor Jerry Rice and this season's Michael Irvin take their good natured rivalry to the dance floor for a dance-off, and Cloris Leachman, Steve Wozniak and Jerry Springer will dance in a competition Mambo. "Roast Master" Jeffrey Ross returns to induct Ashley Hamilton to the "Loser's Club" and Adam Carolla returns as "The Coach" for the finalists. In addition, The Muppets, who were featured earlier this season in Aaron Carter and Karina Smirnoff's week two quick step, will make a return appearance in the finale. In a special performance for the "Dancing with the Stars" Tuesday night finale, Whitney Houston livens up the dance floor with her second single, "Million Dollar Bill," from her seventh and most recent studio album, "I Look to You," released in August 2009. [..] Houston will make a spectacular second performance, singing her chart topping hit single, "I Wanna Dance with Somebody," from her second studio album, "Whitney," released in 1987. [...] Accompanying her will be "Dancing with the Stars" professional dancers Mark Ballas, Cheryl Burke, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, Tony Dovolani, Chelsie Hightower, Alec Mazo, Jonathan Roberts, Lacey Schwimmer, Edyta Sliwinska and Anna Trebunskaya. All the excitement and frenzy will lead up to the moment we've all been waiting for who among the three finalists will win reign as champions of "Dancing with the Stars" and take home the coveted mirror ball trophy?

You can vote online. I voted today for Donny. You have to register to vote at ABC.

Kelly must have been getting a lot of votes because the judges were not as critical as usual. They made sure to praise them all in case any one of them win.

It wouldn't surprise me if Kelly was top in viewer votes because she has broad appeal. I think she brings out the maternal instinct in those older ones among us, and I imagine she's pretty trendy with the younger folks. I don't know if the younger people are voting for Donny, or if the older people are voting for Mya. (In general, I mean.)

Either the sound's a bit choppy or Whitney's singing as though she's a bit breathless. Who's going to clear up that mess?!

(the mess being all the paper that fell from the roof into the stage, not Whitney's singing!)

Was the guy giving the Loser's Club award the guy who did a rather dodgy roast last season? If so, I'm glad he didn't have longer to speak. I'd almost forgotten some of those early dancers.

They're still having the early people do their dances. They're nearing the end of those now.

And next (after the adverts) is Adam Corolla, and after that all three remaining couples do their final dance, their favourite from the season. I guess that makes it at least 20 minutes before third place is eliminated??

When the pressure is off, some of them are doing better? Natalie -- yes?

You're welcome, Rvon. And they're back to former contestants, so it'll be even longer than I said. To be honest I can't remember how well Natalie danced. They said it was a shock elimination but I guess she didn't make much impression on me. It's lovely to see Melissa dance again!

Geez, how can they keep going with their "filler" stuff? My clock says there is about 8 minutes left in the show -- or is it on longer than 2 hours?

OK - I'm watching too many channels! What happened? Did they vote off one? or is it a dance off? I guess that Kelly got voted off?? - she may have" come from RnR royalty but she is ballroom princess" - everyone standing and yelling KELLY KELLY - Kari Ann is tearing up on how Kelly affected her - she is really growing - she has come along way... commercial...

Kelly is dancing the Viennese Waltz. She started off grinning and then remembered her waltz face I think! Seems to have done really well to my untrained eyes. Len says he's going to miss her the most, he's loved watching her every week. Bruno says she's earned her place as a ball room princess. Carrie-Ann says of all seasons she doesn't think anyone has touched her like she has. Kelly and Louis are both crying! Sounds like they won't reveal the scores until after everyone has dances, but I might be wrong on that.

Kelly & Louis just did their Viennese waltz. Beautiful. I'm sniffing. Very positive comments from the judges.
