Donald Driver from the Green Bay Packers was crowned the champion of Dancing with the Stars Season 14 Tuesday night alongside his sexy dancing partner Peta Murgatroyd.

Opera singer Katherine Jenkins came second and Latin heartthrob William Levy came in third.

As soon as the results were revealed, fans of the dancing competition were in shock as they expected Jenkins to take the title.

"Katherine & Mark were consistently the best technical dancers & so disappointed in the results. If it all comes down to the last dance...the freestyle....Let's do this dance on the first show & get it over with at the beginning of the season. So sad it's a popularity contest & not true dance competition," one viewer said on Facebook tonight.

The viewer was referring to Driver's last performance Monday, a country music freestyle routine that earned a perfect score from the judges and a long ovation from the audience.

"I am so very disappointed in Donald winning the trophy. He was sooo NOT the best dancer. Every time there is a popular football player on Dancing with the Stars they win. It is the football fans voting for the person and not their talent as a dancer. Kathryn should have gotten the trophy!!!" another person said.

"Darn!!!! I wanted Katherine and Mark!!!" commented one more.

Still many fans thought Driver deserved the title and noted his freestyle routine on Monday played a big role for the results.

"I really thought Katherine should have won but I gotta hand it to Donald. He hung in there week after week and was the dark horse but turned it on at the end. His freestyle was fabulous!" one Facebook user said.

Driver has overcome a childhood of homelessness and other obstacles to become a Super Bowl Champion and the all-time leading receiver in Green Bay Packers history.

He is married to Betina Driver and has three kids. He and his wife created the Donald Driver Foundation in 2001 with a focus on homelessness, education and health and wellness initiatives.

Driver has also written three books for children.

This is the first Mirror Ball Trophy for Peta and her second season in the show.
