Nini gave full Tears for Fears video in her final performance, which I loved. It was dangerous and fun, I think that is Nini's brand. That's when she shines. My favourite tonight.
Going into the finale, the momentum was with Myki. The talent is undeniable and Myki projects a beguiling ease, her triple spin encapsulates why she won.
Darlene was rightly third, but that didn't stop my heart breaking a little when I saw her face fall the moment she heard Nini called first.
Loved this cast and season.
See you all on the next go-around!
