Another 'Dancing With The Stars Finale,' Another Wave Of Fan Backlash

Of course, the couple received a lot of backlash with viewers claiming the show is rigged and that the couple stole the trophy from the other well deserving competitors.

After nine weeks of competing, the mirror ball champion was finally revealed, but many people are unhappy about it.

All of the finalists began the night with a redo dance. Alexis Ren redid her Argentine tango to swan lake. The dance was slightly sloppy in my opinion, but it improved from the last time they did it. Bobby Bones relived his trio night number, which was a cha cha. He wanted to dance the cha-cha because he loved being MC Hammer for the night. Bobby was never known for his dance skills, but the dance was entertaining nevertheless. Evanna Lynch danced the tango that made her realize that she should dance for herself and not to please others. The first time she danced the tango, she received a 29, but her revival got her a perfect 30. Milo Manheim finished off the redo dances with a Charleston that also received a perfect score.

The next dances were freestyles. Alexis and Alan's dance portrayed their journey on the show as if it was a trek up a mountain. Their dance received a perfect score but I personally thought there were some mistakes that would take away from their score. Sharna choreographed a dance that showed off Bobby's strengths and hid the fact that he wasn't the best dancer.

Their dance, as expected, was more for entertainment rather than a showcase of Bobby's dance improvement. Bobby received a perfect score, which was his first perfect score of the season. I feel that the perfect score wasn't deserved, but it doesn't really affect the results. Evanna and Keo's dance was absolutely perfect for her. Keo stepped out of the spotlight, so Evanna could shine throughout the whole dance. The dance received a well deserved perfect score. Milo and Witney's made Carrie Ann Inaba speechless. Milo dances with such maturity that it's difficult to believe that he's only 17. The dance also received a perfect score.

When the winner was announced, everyone was in complete shock. Bobby and Sharna won the mirror ball making them a mirror ball miracle. After seven years on the show, this was Sharna's first time winning the mirror ball trophy. Of course, the couple received a lot of backlash with viewers claiming the show is rigged and that the couple stole the trophy from the other well deserving competitors. Many of the co-stars on the show answered back to the hate by saying that the couple worked hard to get to where they are and that they shouldn't be sending them hate.

I personally wasn't rooting for them to win, but I am extremely proud of how far they came along in the competition. Bobby was predicted to be the first one off of the show and he was able to prove everyone wrong. Sharna did an amazing job this season making sure that her partner did well and looked like he knew what he was doing. Although I didn't get the ending that I wanted this season, I am looking forward to next season!

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
