Kirstie Alley Goes Aerial With Freestyle Stunts on 'Dancing With the Stars' (VIDEO)
When it came to their Freestyle dance, Kirstie Alley and Maksim Chmerkovskiy decided to surprise everyone in this final performance episode of 'Dancing with the Stars' (Mon., 8PM ET on ABC). In a routine filled with a surprising number of lifts, Alley proved lighter on her feet than we could have ever imagined.Sure, they weren't all perfectly executed, but the judges applauded her effort and confidence in tackling them.
"That dance sort of embodies what I think you have become, which is the new poster child for life as it should be lived at 60 years old," Carrie Ann Inaba told a clearly worn out, but euphoric, Alley.
In the end, the pair scored 9s across the board for both of their dances, putting them definitively in third place with 54 points. The other two couples both scored a near-perfect 59 points, leaving it squarely in the public's hands to declare a winner.
Don't count out Kirstie Alley either, as she's had tremendous fan support throughout this season. Maybe they'll be as impressed as the judges by the spirit she showed tonight and rally her for the victory.
