Tonight is the final chance for the three remaining contestants on "Dancing With the Stars" to impress the viewers at home.
As we've seen this season in particular, high scores from the judges may be nice. But, it's the viewers who matter because their votes can make an impact.
Going into tonight's season finale are Jennifer Grey, Kyle Massey & Bristol Palin.
Getting to this point wasn't always a smooth trip. There were some tense moments at the production office for "Dancing With the Stars."
ABC says a white powder in an envelope was delivered to the office this past Friday. It turned out to be talcum powder.
But, before they knew that, hazardous materials officials with the city of Los Angeles, fire department, police and FBI arrived at the studio lot where the ABC show airs.
This comes just days after the shock that viewers have put low-scorer Bristol Palin in the finals of "Dancing With the Stars," while voting off Brandy, who's had some of the highest scores from the judges.
Watch tonight's show at 8 p.m. and the results show Tuesday at 9 p.m. on ABC.

I have been rooting for Bristol because she is the only one with ZERO previous dance or entertainment experience pitted against people who are either actors or entertainers. Jennifer has had professional dance training - albeit a log time ago - and her father is a professional dancer and choreographer. That said, I will be happy for whoever wins - they are all working their butts off and that’s a fact.
According to the article, Brandy is “outraged” that Bristol is still in the running. hmmm...Brandy did a great job and was beautiful on the dance floor - too bad she’s not showing some grace here. Bristol’s grandfather makes a good point - viewers are asked to vote for their FAVORITE DANCER, not necessarily the best dancer. Wow - so much liveral angst and anger over a TV show!
I think it’s probably simpler than what you’re saying. She’s being voted because she’s liked? Give the kids some credit even if she isn’t that great of a dance (she’s better than me).
No, I really can't imagine it! Her poise and grace under such pressure is a testament to her character! I just read in this morning's paper that DWTS has been receiving death threats directed at Bristol! Good God, there are really some nut-jobs in this world!
I’ve yet to watch one episode of DWTS, and this morning my record stands. Even Palin’s kid could’nt change my dis-taste for that brain bubble gum.
I a very confused about the whole thing....lol. We will have to watch. One link says that one couple will be sent home early and only the final two will dance two dances.
The People Magazine article that was just posted, says that all three will dance two dances and the judges will score each and add those scores to the votes and last night’s scores to determine the winner.
My motivation for voting on DWTS for the first time was in response to Geraldo's hit piece on his show the other night against FreeRepublic.com members. Link
Not sure, one thing we know is Bristol will likely be 3rd unless there is extra on line voting. She is only ahead of kyle by 5 on the phone vote stats. You just have to love Bristol though. I hope she keeps having that happy life.
Good point.
Thank you for the link. Even Bristol’s grandfather said that “People are not requested to vote for the best dancer. They’re voting for their favorite dancer.”
That is exactly right!
Let me be succinct: Bull crap.
LOL!
Three cheers for Bristol, who has earned herself around $300,000 on DWTS.
Good answer...
NO! DAMN IT! ONE MORE TIME - IF THIS WAS ONLY ABOUT THE TECHNICAL ASPECTS OF THE DANCING THEY WOULD ONLY ALLOW PROFESSIONAL JUDGES TO DECIDE IT! DO YOU THINK PEOPLE ARE VOTING FOR KYLE BECAUSE THE HONESTLY THINK HE IS A BETTER DANCER THAN JENNIFER? HELL NO! IT IS A POPULARITY CONTEST AS MUSH AS A DANCE CONTEST - WHAT IS SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND ABOUT THAT PEOPLE?
LOL. Gotta really appreciate the mind readers here.
And the lectures by the ill-mannered with nothing better to do....LOL.
$300,000 !!!
GRATE !!!
Disgraceful!! Usually libtards get their way, but this time they have real people all over the U.S who are sick of them and their elitism. Jennifer has the most elitist background of all. Her family is considered Broadway Royalty.
