'DWTS' Pros Reveals Shocking Comments from Celebrity Dance Partners
Dancers Artem Chigvintsev, Sharna Burgess, and Peta Murgatroyd discussed inappropriate remarks from some celebrity dance partners on "Dancing with the Stars."
Uncomfortable Comments
Chigvintsev recalled a partner saying, "I want you to look at me like you want to f—k me," which left him unsure how to respond. Murgatroyd joked about responding affirmatively but Chigvintsev admitted he couldn't handle such situations. Burgess mentioned feeling second-hand embarrassment.
Stories of Shock
Murgatroyd recounted another incident where a partner made a crude remark just before their performance. She described brushing it off with laughter and moving on.
Burgess shared that one partner texted her inappropriately during rehearsals, while Murgatroyd added she received similar comments.
Ongoing Experiences
The dancers did not reveal which celebrities made the remarks, and noted it's been years since these incidents occurred. Chigvintsev participated in "DWTS" from 2014 to 2023, Burgess from 2011 to 2021, and Murgatroyd from 2011 to 2024.
The trio emphasized receiving such comments regularly during their time on the show.
