In this season, the telephone vote in the duel was eliminated, being the couple saved the one that obtains the highest score. In the final, the winning couple was chosen only by the public vote, so there was no secret vote.[2] In addition, the couples were divided into two teams, each one had as a coach Maricielo Effio or Belén Estévez, former contestants of the show; the winning couple of the season would turn their respective coach into winner.[3]

On December 29, 2012, actress & TV host Karen Dejo and Oreykel Hidalgo were declared the winners, singer & actress Micheille Soifer and Christian Navarro finished second, while former MDO singer Alexis Grullón and Stephanie Palacios were third.[4]

Cast

Couples

For this season 8 celebrities were announced, including Karen Dejo, Miguel "Conejo" Rebosio, Pierina Carcelén and Delly Madrid. Alexis Grullón, who was a judge last season, competed as a celebrity. For this season Maricielo Effio and Belén Estévez returned, playing as coaches. Sergio Lois was the only professional dancer who returned from last season, the rest of the dancers are new to the dance floor.

During the show, Delly Madrid suffered an injury during the first week in the live show, being replaced in the following weeks by Belén Estévez, Leslie Shaw, Emilia Drago and Pamela Mármol until her recovery. Even so, because his period of recovery would take longer than expected, Madrid decided to withdraw the competition.[5][6]
