Billy Crawford continues France's 'Dancing with the Stars' winning streak despite injury
It looks like nothing is gonna stop Billy Crawford from shining like a star as he clinched the top spot again in France's version of Dancing with the Stars.
In the newest challenge of the dance competition, Billy and his dance partner Fauve Hautot were paired with ballet dancer and one of the show's judges, Marie-Agnès Gillot, for a waltz performance to the sound of the divine Ave Maria.
With their elegant yet striking performance, Billy managed to impress the show's judges and French audiences yet again, earning them praises and making them the highest scorer in the episode dubbed Battle of the Judges.
This was a big achievement for the actor, as it was revealed that he actually sustained a strain on his thigh when they were rehearsing for the routine.

The local star first announced in July that he will be a part of the dance competition's 12th season, which premiered its first episode on Sept. 9.
Since then, he has been making an impressive run on the show, with his first performance in the pilot episode of Danse avec les stars receiving a standing ovation from the judges.
His wife, actress Coleen Garcia has been cheering him on from the sidelines, but just recently, she made a surprise appearance on the show when she joined Billy and his dance partner onstage as they grooved to the tune of Calvin Harris' hit song Stay With Me.
