Duck Dynasty' Star Stuns 'Dancing With the Stars' Judges as Willie and Korie Robertson Watch From the Crowd

"Dancing With the Stars" kicked off the show's 19th season last night with "Duck Dynasty" star Sadie Robertson taking to the dance floor and stunning the judges.

The 17-year-old model danced the cha cha, with parents Willie and Korie Robertson watching from the crowd. And the response to her first performance with partner Mark Ballas was a rousing one.

"Duckling no more! Here we have a bird of paradise," proclaimed judge Bruno Tonioli.

Judge Carrie Ann Inaba added, "You're a star, honey. You don't even know it yet."

The "Duck Dynasty" crew has become known for their overt Christian faith in recent years, with the family invoking God at the dinner table at the conclusion of each episode of the show.

And it seems Robertson isn't planning to stop talking about and showing her faith. In footage that aired on "Dancing With the Stars" before her performance, she was seen praying with her family.

Last week, Robertson published a photo of a Christian devotional her mother bought her before she headed to Los Angeles to film the show, writing, "Packing for [L.A.] thank you @bosshogswife for my devotional book to take with me. God comes with me no matter where I go."
