The Dancing With the Stars Finale: Who Should Win Vs. Who Will Win

The rundown: Holy smokes. Corbin and Karina's Michael Jackson freestyle dance to "Smooth Criminal" was ridiculous and on another planet (by the way, Corbin explains below how they pulled off that "lean" move). Corbin is a natural, and when you watch him with Karina, you forget which one is the pro. It's a master class in dance each week watching these two.

What's against them: I struggled to find a suitable answer to this, but if Corbin doesn't win, I'm going to guess it's because of one of two factors: either the Glee fan base was too powerful or viewers felt more connected to Jack Osbourne's story of perseverance.

My prediction: I'm just going to say it: I want these two to win. Not only is their dancing flawless and captivating, but Corbin is quite possibly the nicest, most genuine guy I have ever met. (Karina is a doll as well). Still, will they win? I hope I'm wrong, but I'm going to say no. Why? See below.

2) Amber Riley and Derek Hough

The rundown: These two are brilliant, and their freestyle last night could have easily been an Emmy-winning production number on Glee. Still, I'm not as gung-ho on Team Roughley as I was Team Pickler-Hough last season. I can't put my finger on it, other than to to say that Kellie and Derek blew my mind week in and week out, whereas I felt Derek and Amber weren't quite as strong some weeks.

What's against them: If Derek and Amber win, this will be Derek's fifth Mirrorball trophy and his second back-to-back win. Sure, this is about Amber, not Derek, but I can't help but wonder if that might prompt some viewers not to vote for them (especially if they're on the fence). Still, the bigger obstacle? Jack Osbourne, who has the emotional vote.
