Read an interview with Cheryl Burke and Mark Ballas.

Miranda Masters came to see Mark Ballas’ booty.

“What?” she said as her friends laughed. “I’m not going to lie. That is why I am here. It’s just fun to watch them dance. The ways they can move – it’s just awesome.”

Ballas and fellow “Dancing With the Stars” professional partner Cheryl Burke performed in front of Masters and hundreds of others Sunday as part of the final day of She: An Expo for Women at the Chattanooga Convention Center. The expo is co-sponsored by the Chattanooga Times Free Press and Memorial Health Care System.

Along with dancing, expo attendees could visit one of more than 160 booths offering everything from free food samples to help with redoing kitchen and bathroom tile. Sunday also featured cooking demonstrations, a speech by 2012 Miss Tennessee Chandler Lawson and a fashion show featuring summer and fall trends for Chattanooga.
