'DWTS' Recap: Guess Who Scored a Perfect 30?
That would Rob Kardashian and his partner Cheryl Burke, who took the leaderboard for the first time in this "Dancing with the Stars" competition.
Kardashian and Burke earned a perfect 30 for their retro, Charleston-utilizing freestyle. "This competition is often won or lost in the freestyle round and to get a 10 you have to blow us away. Consider me blown!" raved judge Carrie Ann Inaba.
Watching proudly along with the rest of the family, Kim Kardashian was in the house for the first time since announcing the end of her marriage a few weeks ago. Watch!
"Did u guys see that!!!!!!" she tweeted afterward. "All 10's in the freestyle!!!! OMG I swear the whole fam is in tears!!!!! Let's go baby! Team CherBert!"
J.R. Martinez and Karina Smirnoff came in second place, while Ricki Lake and Derek Hough finished third in the first night of the two-night "DWTS" finale.
The finalists will take the dance floor for the last time Tuesday, with the winning dancing duo taking home the mirrored ball trophy.
