Manu wins Dancing with the Stars

My Kitchen Rules judge Manu Feildel has won Dancing with the Stars 2011.

Feildel beat out Hayley Bracken for the 2011 title in a 3 hour live finale on Seven.

Singer Damien Leith was eliminated mid-way through the show leaving a contest between the French chef and the wife of former Australian cricketer Nathan Bracken, a series contestant himself.

But in the final dances Bracken’s freelance performance didn’t connect with the judges as well as Feildel, scoring 8s and 9s to his perfect 10s.

The win for Feildel is the seventh time a Channel Seven star has taken out the title.

Feildel, whose popularity had continued to grow from My Kitchen Rules and Dancing will next host a new dating series for Seven, Dinner Date.

The eleventh season of Dancing with the Stars showed the variety / reality show still has life, delivering strong ratings and plenty of media including for contestants Brynne Edelsten, Lara Bingle and new judge Josh Horner.
