I thinkg the only reason as to why Drew won is beacuase he's a hottie and he's male and this kind of things are viewed by teenagers who just see the body of a guy and not the real thing. Poor Stacy, she got screwed.

I can truthfully say that it is rare I become so enthused about something to take the time to put my thoughts in writing.
I have watched all of the Dancing with Stars programs, and you are the primary reason I continue to do so. At age 67, I have had the opportunity to observe many talented and attractive women. Yes, when I was a youngster, Ginger Rogers, Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, Cyd Charise, Ann Miller and many others were still in their prime, and many popular movies featured they and other dancers. Aside from movies and TV, I have had the time and opportunity to observe literally thousands of other interesting and attractive women in other lines of work.
While some might have had a slightly prettier face or figure (if so, it couldn't have been by much), and some may have had the infectious gleam that is in your eyes, and yet even others the rampaging enthusiasm and energy that you exhibit, NOT ONE that I can remember could match the blend of ALL these attributes that YOU possess.
Also, Mr. Lachey has improved measurably each week, and I am sure you deserve a good deal of credit for this. It should go without saying that his own attitude and enthusiasm contribute a great deal as the best teacher cannot teach the unwilling. Congratulate him for me.
Let me conclude by saying that watching you has been a real thrill and a pleasure. My best wishes for continued success and a happy life!
Dean
