But perhaps the biggest news of the night was Cher finally showing up to cheer on her son, competitor Chaz Bono, in the audience.

Bono, who performed a paso doble to the Rocky theme, earned 21 out of a possible points from the judges, putting him in a sixth-place tie with Chynna Phillips and Nancy Grace. But his performance still made his famous mom teary afterward.
