Gold medal winner and winner of Dancing With the Stars.
The 17-year-old Olympic gymnast won the show, beating out French actor Gilles Marini.
From ABC News:
Olympic gymnast Shawn Johnson narrowly beat dashing French actor Gilles Marini on ABC'S "Dancing With the Stars" finale Tuesday night. The 17-year-old Johnson, the show's youngest-ever competitor, claimed the surprise win is just as exciting as the Olympics.
"This is my new gold medal," a breathless Johnson said backstage. "It's made me the happiest person ever and changed my life."
Johnson's jaw dropped when she and her pro partner, Mark Ballas, were named the season eight champions, edging out Marini, the front-runner and judges' favorite, by less than 1 percent of the viewers' votes. The stud best known for his steamy scenes in "Sex and the City: The Movie" was a gentleman after his defeat.
