He even beat out his dad, Corky, and tied with childhood friend Derek Hough, for the wins. Mark joined the show in Season 5. Despite their stellar performances, he and partner Sabrina Bryan were eliminated in week six. It was so controversial that various websites voted it 2007's Most Shocking TV Moment. Despite the Season 5 upset, Mark came back to win the DWTS title in Season 6 with partner Kristi Yamaguchi, and again in Season 8 with Shawn Johnson. Born in Houston, Texas, Mark moved to London with his family as a child and joined the Italia Conti Academy of Dramatic Arts Associate School where his training in acting and singing/dancing began. He grew up with fellow DWTS pros Derek and Julianne Hough, who lived and trained with his parents. He says they are more like family than friends. "We get along like brothers...we fight like brothers." Mark and Julianne partnered to win Junior Latin American and Junior Olympics dance championships. As an actor, Mark has played the lead in the musical Copacabana. He also took on roles in the UK tour of Maria de Buenos Aires, and was an understudy in the London Palladium production of The Buddy Holly Musical. Plus, maybe you caught his guest star appearance on the 2008 season premiere of Samantha Who? When he's not dancing, Mark focuses on his other passion, which is music.

Slimcruz Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 She's really good, but Mark is a bit weird with his choreography - just sayin.I totally agree. She didn't luck-out with her partner. It might cost them; the fact that he tries too much weird stuff when there is no need.Best dancer in the game. I agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
