When Dancing With the Stars pro Jenna Johnson and former Bachelor Joey Graziadei took home season 33’s Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy, in November 2024, Johnson joined a small group of pros with multiple wins.
Even more impressively, her two wins came in the span of only eight seasons — she also won in season 26 with Adam Rippon — the fewest number of total seasons out of anyone to win DWTS more than once.
“I’m just so, so grateful. This has been my favorite season ever,” Johnson gushed after her season 33 win. “To be able to share this moment with Joey, and now have one of these [trophies] that we get to share forever is insane.”
Seven other pros have won it all multiple times. Derek Hough has hoisted the Mirrorball six times (his sister, Julianne Hough, has done it twice).Meanwhile, Johnson’s husband, Valentin Chmerkovskiy, has three trophies.
