Nobody keeps 'Baby' in the corner - or from the mirror-ball.

"I was in a surrender moment of whatever happens will be great," she said after her win. "The absolute destination for me was the journey. The journey was the gift. It's a great gift to be part of a show that gives people so much joy. And that's really what I think dancing does."
The 50-year-old actress later took to Twitter to congratulate her fans for their support.

"Can barely type, but MUST thank [partner Derek Hough], my amazing husband and daughter and every single person who voted for us on DWTS. Yay!" Grey Tweeted. "Headed to NY w fam and finalists. Dancing this am on GMA and The View, then going to sleep for several months."
In the end, Massey came in second place, while this season's biggest headline-maker, Palin, took home the bronze.
Palin said that while she didn't expect to win, she longed to, because a victory "would be like a big middle finger to all the people out there that hate my mom and hate me."

Burlesque star Christina Aguilera performed, while other season 11 contestants such as David Hasselhoff, Rick Fox, Kurt Warner and Brandy also took the stage for one last time. Other former contestants in attendance were Margaret Cho, Florence Henderson and Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino.
With the show's record ratings, soaring popularity and high-profile spot on the pop culture grid, openly gay dancer Louis Van Amstel said he's got an idea that will keep things at a fever pitch for the show's upcoming 12th season.

Nice to see class win out for a change. Jen was perfection and grace rolled into one ! She was able to overcome serious pain and deserved to win. She was a very gracious winner,with class and style.

While Jennifer & Kyle both showed how CLASS acts & behaves, Bristol's middle finger remark was very inappropriate! She ruined all her hard work & accomplishments with her attitude the last few weeks. The haters remarks were childish cont

cont) and uncalled for. Liking Jen, Brandy or Kyle or thinking they were better dancers didn't make anyone a hater! She needs to realize that when you put yourself in the public eye not everyone is going to love you! She's a poor loser.

It's too bad that politics invaded DWTS and hopefully the producers learned from this. We have to much hate in America and this only adds to it. I'm sorry she tainted her hard work .She & her sister need to learn some manners.

I think Bristol had the most improvement and Jennifer has dance experience. Couldn't stand her constant complaining. :)

Thank God. It would have been a joke if fat, clumsy, media-grasping Bristol had won - simply because a group of people preferred her mother's religious and political views. Let her start her own religious channel for that.
