Jenna Dewan to judge for CBS reality competition ‘Come Dance With Me’
Come Dance With Me has World of Dance host Jenna Dewan as one of the judges for the series, Deadline understands. Its executive producer is NCIS: Los Angeles stars LL Cool J and Chris O’Donnell.
Dewan has been associated with dance for a long time. She kicked off her career as a backup dancer for Janet Jackson and starred as Nora Clark in the 2006 feature Step Up.
Apart from this she also hosted NBC’s World of Dance for the first two seasons and appeared as a guest mentor in season three. She anchored Fox’s adaptation of the British dance format Flirty Dancing.
The series will be shot in Australia in late May.
Come Dance With Me will feature talented young dancers from across the country. It will invite one inspirational, and untrained, family member and another adult who has become a backbone to fulfill their dance dreams, to become their dance partner for a chance to strut their stuff for a grand prize.
Every week, these kids will share their love of dance with their mother, father, grandparent, or any other hero on an uplifting and emotional journey to learn and perform challenging routines, with the assistance of professional choreographers, in a competition with other duos.
