Dancing with the Stars betting for Season 7 concluded with model Brooke Burke and her partner Derek Hough taking home the mirror ball trophy. Dancing with the Stars betting favorite, Burke, defeated former NFL star Warren Sapp and former N’Sync member Lance Bass to win versus the Dancing with the Stars odds.
Dancing with the Stars betting has gained popularity in recent years as the ABC television show dominates the ratings. Season 7 was again popular although the final result in Dancing with the Stars betting was not a surprise with Burke winning. Burke had been the favorite in Dancing with the Stars odds almost from the beginning. Sapp and Bass had been moving up in Dancing with the Stars odds but they really never threatened Burke. The victory seemed more important to Hough than to Burke. Hough had seen his sister Julianne win the title twice and it was very important that he break through this season.
In the finale of Dancing with the Stars betting, Burke earned a perfect 30 for her Viennese waltz although the dance was less than perfect. The judges had already decided that Burke was their champion and gave her the perfect score. The judges gave Sapp a 27 and Bass a 28 for their final performances. Neither of those dances was worthy of a perfect score either. The choice of the viewers in Dancing with the Stars betting may have been Sapp. He was the fan favorite in Dancing with the Stars betting and continually charmed the crowd. He could not overcome the judges scoring though and finished second in Dancing with the Stars betting. His partner Kym Johnson definitely made her mark and may be the favorite professional now that Julianne is leaving the show.
In past seasons of Dancing with the Stars betting, models have not done well. That changed this year as Burke dominated Dancing with the Stars betting from start to finish.
If you are ready for more Dancing with the Stars betting you only have to wait a few months as Season 8 begins in March. Unlike American Idol, you have two chances each year to bet Dancing with the Stars odds.
