Dancing with the Stars Finale: Who Will Win?

Is Dancing with the Stars' Mirrorball trophy still J.R. Martinez and Karina Smirnoff's to lose? The frontrunner suffered an ankle injury last week, meaning Rob Kardashian and Cheryl Burke, and Ricki Lake and Derek Hough are still very much in the running — not that they were ever completely out of it. Kardashian's improbable journey may be the story of the season, and Lake has Hough, the show's first three-time champ, in her corner.

Who's got the edge? Let's size them up!

Dancing's Derek Hough: I Don't Feel Pressure to Win

Derek Hough is already the first Dancing with the Stars pro to win three Mirrorball trophies, but will he be the first to win four?

Lake, 43, who had a highly successful syndicated talk show for 11 years — and did a documentary about giving birth at home to one of her two children — couldn't even enjoy making it through to next week's show on Dancing With the Stars, Broadway Week, because the next dance, the Quick Step, terrifies her.
