“TeamCrikey”
is set to reunite once more when Dancing
With The Stars’ 6-time-winning and Reigning Mirror Ball Champion Pro, Derek Hough, will attend L.A.’s first ever Steve Irwin Gala Dinner, along with his
beloved, former partner and DWTS'
Down Under DancingDarling, Bindi Irwin, on May 21st, 2016!
Openly endeared to Hough as being his “Little Bindi”, Irwin has also recently disclosed that Singer, BC Jean, of the ever popular,
musical Duo, Alexander Jean, will be joining this exciting event as well, taking to Instagram on Saturday, April 30th to announce, “… We feel so blessed that @bcjean and @derekhough
will be joining us for our very first Steve Irwin Gala Dinner in LA on May 21st.…”
Accompanying the message was a duly chosen Video of Bindi & Derek’s INCREDIBLE,
Perfect Score-earning Viennese Waltz, which had been famously Performed to
Alexander Jean's hit, romantic Single “Roses and Violets” on Week 09 of DWTS' gratifying 21st Season.
“… and we are all very excited that @bcjean will be
performing.…”
In addition, Irwin has also shared that DWTS Host, the incomparableTom Bergeron, will be playing
the part of “Master of Ceremonies” for the evening which she has already
labeled as being “spectacular”, as well as her intention of auctioning off her
now-beloved Viennese Waltz Dress during the Event!

<Whew!> Wow!! … <Re-reading above Text>
… WHAT a Season!!
With each and every performance as great as - if not
better than - the last, it is little wonder that Season 21’s Sweetheart was
dubbed early on in the competition as being a “Mirror Ball Favorite” by
watching fans and Media outlets.
Bindi & Derek
DWTS Season 21, Week 03 - TV Night
Living up to the “Hype” consistently left in their
wake, the immaculate Team of Bindi & Derek received a record-breaking (!!)8 perfect scores throughout the Season!!
Along with that, Derek Hough (who else?) set several records himself ... ... His Tango with Alexa PenaVega (Week 05, Switch-up Challenge), for which he earned a perfect score of 30, marks the first time that any Pro has received a perfect score while dancing with a "switch-up partner"! ALSO, because of the aforementioned Tango, Hough is the only Pro to have ever gotten 9 perfect scores within one Season! And Lastly (but certainly not least), Derek has broken the record (previously held by none other than himself, of course!) for the most Mirror Balls to be won by a single Pro, as he ecstatically hoisted his 6th and most recent Trophy!

“I can’t believe I’m here!” an elated Bindi
expressed according to etonline.com following her Win.“I’m this girl from
Australia who works with wildlife and I got to learn how to dance. And now I’m
here and it’s all thanks to Derek … I’m so, so lucky!”
The emotional Teen also took a moment to offer a
more personalized form of Thanks to her Dance Instructor with whom the animal
lover has shared a seemingly-inseparable, tight-knit bond throughout the
Season.

Bindi & Derek earn yet another perfect score!
“This entire experience has felt like the most
beautiful dance and Derek has inspired me every single day,” Bindi remarked according to people.com before
addressing her partner more directly and saying, “… It’s thanks to you that we
are here!You changed my life and I’m so
happy!”
And the feeling is apparently mutual (!), as was
seen when Bindi’s “big brother” Derek took to his tvguide.com Blog afterwards and wrote concerning the joyous
occasion, “We did it! I can’t believe it and I can’t believe it’s over!I’m so happy to be able to do this for
Bindi.”
The 30-year-old Dancer (who has affectionately
dubbed his openly-adored Celebrity partner as being his “little Bindi”) expressed
other feelings on the subject when he wrote that he was, “ … grateful to have
spent the past three months with Bindi.”; and he additionally observed, “I
know I gave my best for her and we did our best.The win just made everything so much
sweeter.It was the perfect end to the
perfect Season.”
“I might be biased but I think Bindi might be one
of the best contestants the show has ever had …” the veteran Pro further
gushed, “and not just talent-wise.… I’m
not exaggerating when I say I have never met anyone like her before.She’s just special.I’m 13 years older than her, but she’s taught
me so much about life … It was an honor to be able to be her partner and to
teach her to dance.”
