Grant Denyer might have missed out from being king of the jungle when he appeared on I’m A Celeb … Get Me Outta Here but he’s been crowned king of the dance floor after winning Channel 7’s Dancing With The Stars: All Stars.

Denyer and his dance partner Lily Cornish took home the mirror ball trophy, beating bookies’ favourite Courtney Act.

This is the second time Denyer has won the reality television dancing competition. He picked up his first trophy in 2006. He also has hosted the show when it was on Channel 10.

“This show means the world to me, I absolutely love it. If I wasn’t dancing or hosting it, I would be changing the light bulbs in the roof,” he said.

“I vowed 15 years ago to never dance again because it was the best memory of my life. I thought I could never top that so why would I even bother. I’m so glad I changed my mind and did this because it’s the best sensation.”

The winner of Dancing With The Stars was decided by audience vote. Both Denyer and Act got perfect scores from the judges for their performances.

Denyer celebrated his win along with his fellow cast mates at an unofficial grand final viewing party at Flying Fish. The series itself was recorded at the end of last year with multi-endings shot.
