Former Hallam local Grant Denyer and dance partner Amanda Garner are set to compete in next Tuesday’s Dancing with the Stars final.FORMER Hallam high school student Grant Denyer is set for a dance-off next Tuesday when he competes for the title in the latest series of Dancing with the Stars.
The TV weatherman will go head to head with Australian boxing champ Kostya Tszyu following a shock elimination during Tuesday night’s semi-final.
Human Nature singer Toby Allen and partner Leeanne Bampton were given the boot despite scoring extremely well with the judges all season.
Grant and dance partner Amanda Garner performed two dances during the night, including a passionate rumba and a dance routine to the iconic Singing in the Rain, complete with yellow umbrellas, a big puddle and a backdrop of a New York skyline.
The final dance of the evening netted the pair a total score of 36 and narrowly placed them on top of the semi-final leader board.
Grant and Kostya will now compete for the series four crown next Tuesday night.
Following Tuesday’s performance Centrebet listed Grant as the favourite to win the grand final at $1.40 with Kostya at $2.75. To vote for Grant call 1902 555 015 or SMS ‘Grant’ to 194 777.
