Kelly Monaco

Drew Lachey

Then: Lachey was a boy-band heartthrob before winning the show's second season.

Emmitt Smith

Then: He was a star running back throughout the '90s and walked away with the top spot in 2006. See him jive and samba.

Apolo Anton Ohno

Then: This gold medal-winning Olympian took Season 4.

Now: First was sports, then came dancing. Next, Ohno tackled fashion, with a 2008 competition cameo and an endorsement deal.
