DANCING WITH THE STARS : NYLE DIMARCO WINS THE MIRROR BALL TROPHY

America's Next Top Model winner Nyle DiMarco added another champion trophy on his resume. He has won the 22nd season of Dancing with the Stars and got the much coveted mirror ball trophy.

Nyle is partnered with professional dancer Peta Murgatroyd. This is Peta's 2nd win, after winning with NFL player Donald Driver in the show's season 14.

As we all know, Nyle is deaf and cannot hear the music, making it doubly hard to memorize the steps and the dance. Despite this, Nyle and Peta had performed several unforgettable routines this season. The most notable one was their Argentine Tango routine in week 9 (semi-finals) where Nyle danced some of the parts blindfolded.

The pair actually started shaky at the finale, getting a 27 in their quickstep routine, the lowest amongst the 3 first dances:


They got their groove back in the 2nd dance, scoring a perfect 30 in their lyrical freestyle dance which revolved around the struggle of being deaf.


Their last dance was also a perfect 30, with their fusion of tango and cha cha cha.


In the end, the pair beat the pairs of Broadcast meteorologist Ginger Zee and Val Chmerkovskiy and UFC fighter Paige Van Zant and Mark Ballas.

Here is their winning moment from the show's YouTube channel:
