Derek Hough
Derek Hough and Joanna Krupa gave dirty dancing a new meaning with their repetitive head-in-the-crotch move on Dancing with the Stars that left even Tom Bergeron flummoxed.

Find out what else the 24-year-old has to say about their stellar week, why it would be "mind-blowing" to win and what special performance he has in store for the results show.

This week demonstrated that not everyone on TV is cynical. Mad Men's Don Draper finally came clean with his wife. A One Tree Hill investigation uncovered a cruel deception. Amazing Race's Mika had a panic attack. And it would take a real cynic to think that Shepard Smith wasn't being real in calling for more balance in Fox News Channel's political coverage. This Halloween, we're removing our masks and embracing genuine human emotion. Welcome to Top Moments: Cynicism-Free Edition.

"I can assure people that will not happen!" Krupa tells TVGuide.com. "That would only happen to a person like T.O. That was just a bad vibe from the beginning." How bad? Hear Krupa's side below and find out why Dancing is a dream come true.

Derek Hough
There's no Dancing with the Stars results show on Tuesday, but it will still be a big day for two pros. Derek Hough and Mark Ballas' band, the aptly named, five-person Ballas Hough Band (formerly Almost Amy), will release its first album, BHB — fulfilling a lifelong dream for the BFFs. "I'm just really proud of ourselves and so happy that our perseverance and our determination eventually got us to where we wanted to be," Hough tells TVGuide.com. But don't think Dancing's not important to them either. Ballas is paired with gymnast Shawn Johnson for Season 8 (premieres Monday at 8 pm/ET on ABC), while Hough has his own petite partner in Lil Kim. See what else Hough has to say about his new disc, why Korn will always have a special place in his life and how you can hang out with him every week (well, if you're in L.A.).

Dancing with the Stars, Derek Hough, Brooke Burke
"Thanksgiving is going to be just a lot of relaxing and quality family time," Brooke Burke said just moments after being named this season's Dancing with the Stars celebrity champ. "My family gave up a lot for me to do this. They gave up so much mommy time." Burke's pro partner, Derek Hough, similarly was happy to be a winner, yet just as thankful to get a deserved (if brief) time-out. "Dude, Thanksgiving is going to be rest," he declared. "Epson salt bath ... maybe a massage. I have to start rehearsing for the tour on Friday."
Comedian Jeffrey Ross, who as part of Tuesday night's results show pointedly "roasted" his former cast mates, pondered what Burke and Hough could have done better. "Maybe if they had ...
