Derek Hough and Mark Ballas showcase gender-bending tango in Dancing With the Stars finale

Derek Hough and Mark Ballas performed a gender-bending Argentine Tango during the season 33 finale of "Dancing With the Stars" on November 26. They highlighted the dance's historical roots, originally featuring two male dancers due to a gender imbalance in the 19th century. This performance marks a continuation of same-sex dancing on the show, following earlier instances in 2016 and 2021. The finale also saw Joey Graziadei and Jenna Johnson win the Mirrorball Trophy, while other contestants included Ilona Maher and Chandler Kinney, who finished as runner-up and third, respectively.
