Mark Ballas usually dances with Bristol Palin, but last night he accepted the dare to duel with Val Chmerkovskiy on "Dancing With the Stars." The battle was a huge hit with fans and viewers, with many praising the two for their acute musical ability. So, who was the victor in the ultimate ballroom battle? Host Tom Bergeron set the stage when he introduced the Ballas/Chmerkovskiy duel by saying, "Mark Ballas and Val Chmerkovskiy have had a lifelong ballroom rivalry that extends to their musical ambitions. Tonight, they plan to settle the score on our floor."
Mark Ballas and Val Chmerkovskiy are longtime ballroom competitors, but they're great friends off the dance floor. They share not only a love of dance, but also a passion for music. In a friendly battle of words, Mark and Val tried to heat up the duel. Mark Ballas began with, "Val beat me a handful of times out of 500, so you do the math." Val retorted with, "I don't plan to be second to Mark Ballas." This was followed by a reply from Ballas who stated, "I've schooled you on the dance floor, now it's time for a music lesson, son."
The talented performers started off dueling each other musically, with Mark Ballas on the classical guitar and Val Chmerkovskiy on the violin. The talented friends gave the audience a daring string duel of Britney Spears's hit song "Toxic." They then moved onto the dance floor to dance with their pro partners. The end result was an amazing performance that spectacularly showcased the musical and dancing talents of Ballas and Chmerkovskiy, younger brother of DWTS pro Maks

@allstarweekend4444 Val for dance, val is more better, he was 5th in the world

everyone is saying val but the music was in his favor, that was definitly not a song to showcase an acustic guitar... mark is a better musician though, if you have seen him before... he sings amazing
