Dancing With the Stars: Athletes [1] was full of incredible performances during its opening night, but none were as emotional as Tonya Harding's foxtrot. On Monday, the former figure skater opened up about her decision to do the show and how she hopes it will change people's opinion about her following her 1994 scandal with Nancy Kerrigan [2]. "I want people to see that I deserve to be here," she said through tears. "I don't want to fail again."

She followed up the emotional segment by giving a graceful performance to "When You Believe" by Mariah Carey [3] and Whitney Houston alongside her partner, Sasha Farber. She even had the support of I, Tonya stars Allison Janney and Mckenna Grace in the audience. Get ready to openly weep over the video above.
