We're so happy for Kellie Pickler who's made it into the finals on this season's Dancing With the Stars!

Kellie's teamed with 3-time Mirror ball trophy winner Derek Hough, so she may have a slight edge over her competitors, but then again one is an Olympic winning gymnast and another is an NFL Super Bowl champion.

The final four are Kellie Pickler, Aly Raisman, Jacoby Jones, and Zendaya. Here they are with the entire group of contestants before their first televised dance.
