Dancing With the Stars will soon be crowning its Season 34 winner! By the end of tomorrow night’s three-hour-long special, ABC’s beloved dance competition series will award its coveted mirror ball trophy to the couple with the most votes. Elaine Hendrix, Alix Earle, Dylan Efron, Jordan Chiles and Robert Irwin will all be taking the stage for their final dances of the season.
The Season 34 finale will be the first of its kind: Cohost Alfonso Ribeiro revealed during the Nov. 18 episode that the finale will see the stars perform three dance routines: a Judges’ Choice, an Instant Dance (to a surprise song on live TV) and a freestyle routine.
“Next week, we’re taking over all of ABC in primetime with our most demanding season finale in the history of the show,” Ribeiro told the audience. “For the first time, we’ll have three rounds of competition.”
So, who is favored to win? Who’s seen as the underdog in the competition? And where does each couple rank on the leaderboard? Below, we’ve rounded up everything you need to know ahead of tomorrow night’s finale.
Who is favored to win ‘Dancing With the Stars’ Season 34?
While the winner of the mirror ball trophy will ultimately be crowned on Tuesday night, Robert Irwin and his partner, Witney Carson, appear to be a clear fan favorite this season. Irwin, the son of the beloved “Crocodile Hunter,” Steve Irwin, who died in 2006 at 44 years old, emerged as a strong contender from the get-go — and has consistently scored at the top of the leaderboard. The 21-year-old wildlife conservationist also hit a notable milestone in Week 9 of the competition when he earned his first perfect score — 40/40 — of the season. Even Prince William is rooting for him!
In terms of social engagement, Irwin’s fan base also appears to be one of the season’s strongest — which could result in him receiving the most votes on finale night.
If Irwin wins the mirror ball trophy tomorrow night, it’ll mark the second time an Irwin has won the reality TV dance competition: His older sister, Bindi Irwin, won Season 21 of Dancing With the Stars in 2015 with her pro-dancer partner, Derek Hough.
Who is the current underdog of ‘Dancing With the Stars’ Season 34?
There isn’t a clear underdog this season, though if we’re going based on semifinals scores, it seems Dylan Efron and his partner, Daniella Karagach, take the spot. On semifinals night, Efron and Karagach scored the lowest among the couples, with a combined score of 55/60 for their dances.
That’s not to say that the Traitors contestant hasn’t had his share of standout performances, though: In Week 5, Efron, the younger brother of actor Zac Efron, dedicated a heartwarming contemporary dance to their sister, Olivia, who even joined him onstage. Efron, like Irwin, also received his first perfect score in Week 9.
Wait. What happened during last week’s episode?
On the Nov. 18 episode of Dancing With the Stars, the six semifinalists each performed two dances dedicated to music legend Prince: one in a style they had yet to perform this season, and another one in a repeat style that showed their growth as dancers. According to Ribeiro, Week 10 of DWTS received the most votes in the show’s history. From the style of dance to the choice of song, here’s what each couple picked for their semifinal performances:
