Rob's 'Dancing With The Stars' Run Sends Kardashian Family Flocking To Twitter Again

Rob's 'Dancing With The Stars' Run Sends Kardashian Family Flocking To Twitter Again It could be said that Rob Kardashian probably wouldn't trade what "Dancing with the Stars" really earned him for J.R. Martinez's Mirrorball Trophy any day of the week.

After weeks of tension among his siblings and their mother, Rob's run to a runner-up finish on the show's 13th season has brought out his family's best and provided something positive that can be associated with the Kardashian name.

In what would have to be considered an upset, Rob and partner Cheryl Burke received a perfect Monday-night performance score that edged the reality co-star above fellow finalists Martinez and Ricki Lake for sole possesion of the last Leader Board standings headed into Tuesday's results show.

In what might've been an even bigger surprise, fan votes actually bumped Lake into third place and kept Rob in the running with season-long contender Martinez for the trophy.

Best of all, his sisters made something very clear via Twitter last night: second place has still won hiim a lot along the way.

Kim Kardashian was ecstatic, tweeting a shout-out to her brother, as well as Martinez and partner/first-time winner Karina Smirnoff, "Congrats J.R. and Karina! Well-deserved! Robbie and Cheryl I love (you) so much! (You) are my winner Rob. I am so proud!"

It's a more respectable gesture considering that her mother, Kris Jenner, reportedly made quite the big deal pre-season to Rob about the supposed importance of him outdoing Kim's own three-week stint on a previous season.

Kourtney Kardashian added "Congratulations to J.R. and Karina! What a night and a season! I am so proud of my brother! @robkardshian and @cherylburke congratulations!"

Khloe Kardashian was anything but beyond words, tweeting "Rob and JR are both amazing! I'm so proud of my brother! … Rob I  love you so much!! I am SO proud of you! You have NO idea! The man you have become I am most proud of! I love how much you have grown! … Every single week u (you) improved! that's what I love most! Got 2 (to) see u (you) dance better and better every week! You are amazing! Congrats to JR/Karina. I can't express how proud I am of my brother! I am so proud of every(one) who did DWTS! That takes guts! I love you Rob!"
