It's Official: Laurie Hernandez Will Be on "DWTS"

We called it (well, almost)! One of the fabulous Final Five is going to be cha cha-ing her way around the “Dancing with the Stars” ballroom in two weeks.

Get Well Soon, Derek Hough!

It seems like Derek Hough is carrying the whole dance world on his shoulders—or, more realistically, his feet—these days. Between his starring role in the Radio City Spring Spectacular and his stellar partnership with Nastia Liukin on “Dancing with the Stars,” he’s become a bicoastal dancing MACHINE. A machine that is now, sadly, suffering some […]
