Ilona Maher’s Finale Redemption Jive - Dancing with the Stars

[@MajesticMyronn]

Ilona should be sooooo damn proud of herself! Those kicks & flicks and that confidence has improved tremendously! She deserved to be in the finals and that redemption dance just proved it! It’s a 9 🔥

[@meganelisabeth4784]

I think that smile and her laugh mid coreo means shes finally proud of herself!! 😭❤️ She looks so happy on the dance floor.

[@SherryWestie]

I had a big smile when Ilona did the cute little cheer at the end! ❤

[@brooklynbyars6055]

These two always get out on the dance floor and just have the time of their lives. I love them.

[@perlinpinperlinpin6199]

Est ce qu elle à gagnée ?

[@Dragondaughter9]

She has obviously been out of her comfort zone, her movements are frequently muted. That is not to say she was bad in any way. I sure couldn't do it. especially in heels. But there are others that are "better". Either way, I think she will be an exceptional inspriation for many young girls that are "bigger" and so physically powerful. She is gorgeous and talented and so very cool as a human. It was great watching her.

[@cwayzums]

No real technique needed to be entertaining. Just pure fun. I love their partnership.

[@AsiaOceans-nx5lr]

Not sure why she is in the final pairs

[@mullallylally]

How did they not win thr trophy absolutely rigged shes thr people's champ

[@hoaxswift]

she is NOT the best at dancing. stop.

[@edwardharriss1463]

​@@hoaxswift doesn't mean she doesn't deserve to win

[@hoaxswift]

WHAT?! that’s the complete definition of why you win!

[@mullallylally]

To be fair joey wasn't the best dancer either let's call a spade a spade the best dancers technically was chandler but the best personality and the most unique/ actually interesting performances were from ilona everyone else was kind of boring shes a rugby star rhe rest are actors or singers they already have a choreo background ilona did mot and fricken smashed it she got robbed and we all know it

[@hoaxswift]

@@mullallylally um hello did you not see chandlers beautiful freestyle to honor black stars, or her dance to her mother? she was not robbed. she was not the best dancer period.

[@vitapretiosa]

I really wanted to like it, since I didn't like their other dance. Sadly, it was boring to me. It just felt off. Sorry.

[@catladyfromky4142]

I agree. She's not very light on her feet. She should have worked on that a little more.

[@lininacrowne1941]

​@catladyfromky4142 im obsessed with ilona but i agree

[@katie17330]

When compared to her first jive, her confidence, energy, and execution are much better in this one.

[@ShayTheAnti-Feminist]

Stiff as a board.

[@lifeofehs]

You name says a lot😂

[@confusedsquirrel]

disagree

[@taroman7100]

But built tank tuff. She’s a tank commander

[@RitaMiller-u4v]

I still think she is transgender or else a manly girl with male features. It was a good dance, however 😢.

[@LovelyLawla]

She an olympic rugby player, so she's gonna be strong and muscly. Are you so shocked that not all women are stick thin?

[@laichoy1549]

Not being fair with other female dancer as she is a guy not girl

[@kiwigirljacks]

Don’t be a knob, she’s a female! I’m more muscular than her and born female. We all come in different shapes and sizes so just give it a rest!

[@meganelisabeth4784]

She was born a woman and identifies as that. Not sure where you got your incredibly rude and transphobic idea from.. But good try. So sorry you've never seen BUILT yet SEXY women in your life. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I'll pray for you! 🤣

[@rebecatofan5954]

She is a woman ,she was born a woman 😂She is a rugby player and is very musculare

[@firecausesburns]

even if she was a guy, there's been same-sex pairs on the show before?????

[@confusedsquirrel]

wow, you are so loud and so wrong

[@dianehopps8770]

No thanks! Sickening! Shouldn’t flaunt this or condone this!

[@ForrestFox626]

How is it sickening?

[@LovelyLawla]

I'm gonna assume that you have incorrectly decided Ilona is a trans woman. She is not. She is a cis woman who was born and raised as a girl. She is also an Olympic Rugby player, so she's gonna be bigger and stronger than the majority of women.
