The announcement was met with shock from the judges and the live audience. An AOL poll voted their elimination "2007's most shocking TV moment." The next week, the remaining dancers and celebrities showed their continued support and affection for Bryan by donning her signature cheetah paw-print tattoo. For the second-to-last week, Bryan and Ballas were invited back to the show to perform, another first for any couple.
After weeks of speculation among the fans and entertainment news of a budding romance between him and his DWTS partner, just a week after they were taken off the show on November 5, 2007, Sabrina Bryan, in an interview with TV Guide, admitted that she and Ballas are dating. Ballas was incorrectly quoted by UsWeekly saying she was "too busy for him", however he retracted his statement on his myspace saying he was taken "completely out of context". Later, the magazine edited the article to include that he retracted his statement.
It was announced, Ballas' partner for Season 6 of Dancing with the Stars is Olympic Gold Medal winning figure skater Kristi Yamaguchi. In the first week, Kristi and Mark received a 27 out of 30 for their foxtrot, the highest score to be received on the first week in the entire series. Together, they continued to top the leaderboard for 6 weeks straight, a new record on DWTS. However, they came in 2nd in the 7th and 8th week of competition, ending their streak. Kristi and Mark were top of the leaderboard for 8 of the 10 weeks of competition, a new DWTS record. They also mantained the highest average as of Week 10 with a 28.3 average including a perfect 90/90 score for the finale, both DWTS records. Kristi and Mark's lowest score, a 26, was also the highest "low" score ever for any contestant throughout the seasons. On May 20, 2008 Ballas and Yamaguchi won the 2008 Season of Dancing with the Stars. According to the judges, they had set the standard for the entire season and were the most consistent couple not only in Season 6, but in all the seasons of DWTS. Kristi and Mark have commented that they would like to perform on the winter DWTS tour if asked.
