Billy Crawford reaches France’s ‘Dancing with the Stars’ grand finals

Billy Crawford and dance partner Fauve Hautot became the first duo to qualify at this year's Dancing with the Stars in France, with an almost perfect score garnered from the show's judges.

The duo performed pasadoble to Maneskin's "Let's get it started" and rumba to Snow Patrol's "Chasing Cars" for their semi-finals performance.

During the pilot episode of Danse avec les Stars, Crawford and Hautot danced to Harry Styles' "Watermelon Sugar". They were given a standing ovation by the judges, despite feeling nervous about participating in the said contest.

Crawford took it to Instagram to express his gratitude for everyone who supported his journey with the French show franchise. He also thanked his fellow hosts at Tropang LOL who cheered him on from the very beginning of his journey in the competition.

Crawford wrote, "Thank you for this blessing and making my job worth loving!"

He also recently shared a post for his wife Coleen Garcia-Crawford: "My rock, anchor, and my biggest blessing! I love you so much."

Last month, Coleen made a surprise guest appearance in the reality dance competition show as a "mystery dancer." Crawford was performing with Hautot to Calvin Harris' "Stay With Me" when his wife joined in towards the latter part of the routine.

"It has been an amazing experience and such a pleasure to dance on a daily basis," Crawford said.
