My love for Dancing with the Stars is no secret. This season, however, I ended up relating a lot to Bindi Irwin and I am incredibly excited that she won. That girl is the sweetest, most positive teenager I’ve ever seen in my entire life. I spent half the season trying to figure out how that was possible, and I’m wondering if it was because she was raised by koalas and kangaroos. (I joke, I kid, but Bindi and her family do live at the zoo.)

In celebration of her win, here are my three favorite dances from her and Derek:

1) Week 10: Jazz Trio – Obviously, Derek picked Mark to be their partner in the trio. The choreography here was fantastic; it was just so creative and danced perfectly. I felt like in this week, Bindi put all the other contestants to shame.

2) Week 6: Dirty Dancing/Rumba – Who doesn’t love the Dirty Dancing routine?? I was so excited that they were assigned this routine and loved the way it turned out.

3) Finals: Freestyle – And last, but most certainly not least, is their freestyle to Footprints in the Sand. This routine had everyone in tears. It was absolutely gorgeous, the perfect freestyle for Bindi.
