Follow all that? People spoke with previous winners to gauge their reaction to the current crop of contestants. Here’s what they had to say:

Kristi Yamaguchi, on Gilles Marini: “Gilles’s biggest weakness is getting too excited while dancing and forgetting to pay attention to the technical details of the dances. In order for him to win, Gilles will have to pull out a crowd-pleasing freestyle with the WOW factor.”

Apolo Anton Ohno, on Shawn Johnson: “[She] has the technical side of the dances down. Now she’s got to really turn on her personality. She’s got to be animated and bubbly and showcase her goofy side this last week.”

Helio Castroneves, on Melissa Rycroft: “She has habits, she was a ballerina for so long. She’s very graceful and we know she can dance. She already has the finesse, now she needs to perform to the audience even more.”

So, who do you think will win, readers?
