There
were tears of joy for Steve Irwin's daughter Bindi as she won America's
Dancing With The Stars - nine years after her father's tragic death.
The 17-year-old Australian had already been pegged as the favorite among fans and judges for most of season 21 of the hit show.
And
the hype proved to be entirely justified when she was crowned champion
after performing a series of dances with her pro partner Derek Hough
that astounded everyone, after an emotional freestyle which paid tribute
to her late father, Steve.
The
victory came after a teary Bindi praised her father, known globally for
his wildlife show 'The Crocodile Hunter'. He was killed at the age of
44 after being struck by a stingray barb to the heart in Queensland,
Australia in 2006.
Bindi and Derek's final dance of the evening was the Cha Cha/Argentine
Tango to All The Way by Time Flies which garnered them high praise
