It's been incredible watching you push past barriers and blossom into a performer," she said in a heartfelt Instagram post. "I'm testing every day because I'm so damn paranoid about getting Covid at the business end of bloody dancing. I'm looking forward to watching my fellow competitors dance, and we'll be back to watch the grand finale to celebrate who comes out on top!" So you're taking steps, RAT testing every day, because we've come too far now, [we] have got to keep going." "You are one of the hardest working, most determined persons I know! "I'm very disappointed that our ending has come down to Covid, but it's always a risk we took at this current time.

Dancing with the Stars: Rhys Mathewson also ruled out due to Covid ... (Stuff.co.nz)

The comedian will join Eric Murray on the bench days before the semi-finals. Kerre Woodham is back in the running.

“You’ve put me in a pickle there...” Mathewson hesitates. But we were so close.” “Selfishly, boy would I love a postponement,” Mathewson said. Who does Mathewson think would win if all eliminated contestants were thrown back into a dance battle for his and Murray’s spots? I think they would’ve blown what we’ve already done on the show out of the water. That includes RAT testing the live audiences on entry.

It's unclear what a "finale tie-in" would entail, but only airing the finale is a strange way to raise awareness of DWTS moving to Disney+. It would make more sense to air the season premiere on ABC, then tell viewers the rest of the season would only be available on the streaming platform. easily expands across connected programing," Erwich told Variety. "So even just creatively, which is obviously the most important consideration, we think that is going to be really fun for the viewers to have watched these things over the course of the two nights – and not just watch them, but talk about them. After DWTS Season 30 ended, ABC and Disney announced in April that Season 31 would only be available on Disney+. Erwich told Variety BiP was the best replacement for DWTS because Bachelor fans are used to watching the series on Monday nights. "Bachelor in Paradise has a very unique format in that it's such a big tent for so many characters and storylines that it... After unveiling the schedule, Erwich told Variety it was possible there could be a finale tie-in for DWTS. "What I can say is I think you'll see it be a key priority across all of the Disney ecosystems," Erwich said. Season 31 will instead stream live on Disney+, meaning that this is the first time since 2005 that DWTS doesn't have a slot on ABC. Before the alphabet network's upfront presentation on Tuesday, ABC Entertainment & Hulu Originals President Craig Erwich teased a possible way for DWTS to appear on the linear network.

I think we, as New Zealanders, are very lucky to have our place in the Pacific, and it's our responsibility to give back to our brothers and sisters in the islands. "I can kind of get my head around the music and the rhythm of it fairly easily," he shares. Laughing loudly, as she does to much of what her new husband says, Chelsea adds, "We wanted it to be that kind of feeling where it's not like we're on stage presenting a show for everyone – everyone was involved. "I really like to go fast. Tap dancing is making loud noises with your feet and ballroom is doing a push-up while you're doing a plank, then going into a squat for 90 seconds and making it look effortless! "For $25, Fred Hollows can stop someone from needlessly losing their sight. Rhys is vegetarian and Chelsea is vegan, so they had vegan tacos and ice cream for their 100 guests. Rhys tells, "Half of our bridal party was overseas, so we thought, 'Let's just see how bad it gets.' I'm not sure if you've kept up with the news, but it got pretty bad! So my auntie ended up being part of the bridal party!" With a rare Saturday off together, Rhys had already asked family and friends to keep the afternoon free to celebrate their engagement. Rhys tells, "We had to make some tough calls. Do it in the bathroom or something.'"
