JORDAN FISHER AND LINDSAY ARNOLD ARE ‘DANCING WITH THE STARS’ SEASON 25 CHAMPIONS!

In the two-hour season finale of “Dancing with the Stars” on TUESDAY, NOV. 21 (9:00-11:00 p.m. EST), it was a Christmas spectacular as the three finalists advanced to the final stage of the competition. There was live dancing and show-stopping performances at both The Grove and in the ballroom, and each couple performed two dances. The first was a repeat performance of their favorite dance from earlier in the season, while the second routine was part of a “24-Hour Fusion Challenge,” in which each couple fused two contrasting dance styles with less than 24 hours to prepare.

The night kicked off with a high-energy opening number, featuring a reunion of all 13 of this season’s couples, at The Grove, Caruso’s award-winning retail, dining and lifestyle destination. Multiplatinum artist Nick Lachey performed a new, never-before-heard ballad, “Someone to Dance With,” a special track he recorded that was inspired by his journey on “Dancing with the Stars” this season. The song is currently available on streaming services everywhere. Additionally, the night also included numerous special performances: Kelsea Ballerini sang “Legends,” from her latest album; Lindsey Stirling featuring Becky G performed “Christmas C’Mon,” from Lindsey’s new holiday album, “Warmer in the Winter”; and Jordan Fisher sang a joyful medley with Debbie Gibson, “Sleigh Ride”/”What Christmas Means to Me.”

There was also a special performance from the upcoming Dancing with the Stars: Live! Light Up the Night tour, hitting the road this winter, as well as a number inspired by the Walt Disney Animation Studios new “Frozen” short, “Olaf’s Frozen Adventure.”

The judges’ points and viewer votes from November 20 were combined along with the night’s judges’ points and online-only viewer votes from the repeat dances and “24-Hour Fusion Challenge” to determine the winner. At the end of the night at The Grove, Jordan Fisher and Lindsay Arnold were named Season 25 champions and presented with the coveted Mirrorball trophy.

Hosted by two-time Emmy^®-winning host Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews, “Dancing with the Stars” is the hit series in which celebrities perform choreographed dance routines that are judged by a panel of renowned ballroom experts, including head judge Len Goodman and dancers/choreographers Bruno Tonioli and Carrie Ann Inaba.
