Dancing With the Stars: Shawn Gilles Talk About the Results

After winning the 8th season of Dancing With the Stars, Shawn Johnson & Mark Ballas stopped to talk a bit with a correspondent from TV Guide.

Shawn says that the mirror-ball trophy feels like her second gold medal. Mark was obviously very moved by winning too. Even though a lot of people were upset that Gilles or Melissa didn’t win, Shawn has obviously got tons of fans because it was their votes that put her over the top. Check it out:

And it’s so amazing how graceful both Gilles Marini & Cheryl Burke were after coming so close to winning. Gilles said that it was fitting that Shawn would win. She’s 17 years old and he’s 33 years old. He wanted her to win. WOW! How cool is he?
