Dancing With The Stars (DWTS) champion, Donny Osmond has tweeted of the show, "This show has more steps than a New York skyscraper." His win was the talk of Twitter immediately after the show, making it to the top of Twitter's trending topics. Twitter is still tweeting about the dance victory. An unlikely candidate for controversy, Osmond found himself in the middle of one, over his win on DWTS.

Osmond's win marked the first time in four season's that a male took home the Dancing With the Stars trophy. 

Singer Mya was a good sport saying, "I had a broken foot last year. I'm just so happy to have made it to the finals and it's all about teamwork and we enjoyed ourselves. We had the time of our life."  Her fans on Twitter disagreed that Osmond could out dance her. @Jareezyland tweeted, "Oh yeah on a random rant I think Mya totally should have won Dancing With The Stars Last Night... She was robbed !!!!" Both Osmond and Mya have been gracious to one another publicly.

While there is disagreement with his win with partner Kym Johnson, over singer Mya, many on Twitter are simply sharing the news.  Osmond was quick to thank his fans on Twitter for the win.

Tweets at the time of writing: 

"We won! And, we couldn't have done this without you. What an amazing journey! I'll be talking about this for a long time."

"Hey guys. Thank u so much 4 all of the support! I'm so happy 2 have come so far 2 the finals & be able 2 share a fraction of myself w/u! Cheers!!!"
