Amir Banai and Romi Nof Crowned Winners of Dancing with the Stars 2026
The fifth season of the popular Israeli reality competition "Dancing with the Stars" concluded on Wednesday evening with the announcement of its champions, young actor Amir Banai and dancer Romi Nof. Banai, son of actress Orna Banai and journalist Ehud Manor, captivated audiences and judges throughout the season, emerging as the leading contender for the win.
Securing the second position were actress and model Noa Cohen and dancer Eitan Krips. Despite a lower score at the season's start, they demonstrated significant improvement, delivering moving performances that impressed everyone.
Surprisingly, singer Shiri Maimon and dancer Rafael Fleischman finished in third place. They had been considered strong contenders for the title throughout the competition.
Actor Bar Brimer and dancer Sana Sokol took fourth place. Brimer sustained an injury during the dress rehearsal earlier that evening but still performed in the final dance-off. Despite his effort, he ultimately finished last in a season featuring many talented contestants.
