Wounded war veteran J.R. Martinez claimed victory on the 13th season of the hit TV show “Dancing With the Stars” on Tuesday, winning with a jive and a samba that thrilled audiences.

Martinez, dancing with partner Karina Smirnoff, wowed the judges throughout the 10-week competition and overcame an injured ankle in the final weeks of the popular dance contest to claim its coveted mirror ball trophy. His grit and determination proved an inspiration to viewers.

“Dancing With the Stars” just got really dull. Despite bringing goofball antics, laughter and even magic to the ballroom bash, David Arquette became the latest contestant to be eliminated from the show.

Since the first week, his scores have landed him at or near the bottom of the scoreboard. Monday’s messy 19-point tango was no different, and viewers finally spent their votes elsewhere.

Proving once again that the show is about fan bases and not about actual dancing ability, voters sent “The Hills” star Kristin Cavallari home despite the respectable 24 points she earned from the judges for her sassy samba on Monday. The score landed her in the middle of the leaderboard, but miles ahead of Chaz Bono’s 18 points for a rumba that was more standing than dancing.
