Joan Rivers
Joan Alexandra Molinsky (born June 8, 1933) is an American comedienne legend, television personality and actress. She is known for her brash manner; her loud, raspy voice with a heavy New York accent; and her numerous cosmetic surgeries. Rivers's comic style relies heavily on poking fun at herself and other celebrities, mostly about their fashion sense, or according to her, their lack thereof. Joan's daughter, Melissa, took place in the only unfinished season (Season 3) of the DWTSGame. Melissa was paired with Mark Ballas, Joan's partner's son.
Corky Ballas
Mark Alexander Ballas, Sr. (born December 25, 1960) is a retired competitive ballroom dancer who holds several Latin dance championship titles. He has one son, Mark Ballas, with former wife and partner Shirley Ballas. Corky and Shirley Ballas also raised and trained Julianne Hough and Derek Hough. His father, George Ballas, was the inventor of the Weed Eater. He has appeared on Dancing with the Stars as a professional dancer on two occasions, once in Fall 2008 as Cloris Leachman's partner and once in Fall 2010 as Florence Henderson's partner.
Corky's previous DWTSGame partners include: Meg Ryan (quarter-finalists), Kris Jenner, Meredith Vieira, Lee Meriwether, and Betty White (semi-finalists).

Joan's Journey
Joan Rivers announced that even though she was quite a fiesty comedienne, she was quite nervous to dance. Corky could settle her, though - after all, he got Betty White into the semi-finals!
In Week 1, Joan and Corky danced a Foxtrot to "Grace Kelly" by Mika. They scored straight fives to give them a score of 15. This put them in 17th place on the leaderboard.
In Week 2, Joan and Corky performed a strangely erotic Samba to "Dirrty" by Christina Aguilera. It was very interesting, scoring straight fours, and getting Joan a total of 12. This put her bottom of the leaderboard. They were eliminated later this week along with Linda Hamilton.
