Hey people! Our beloved Dancing with the Stars TV Show is all set to kick start its ninth season in a couple of months. And recently, one of the judges of the show has just stepped into the field of production. Well friends, I am talking about the very forthcoming and sweet dancer and choreographer Carrie Ann Inaba. It will be the first time that Carrie will be working for a Broadway play and I am sure that she will be enthralled to get this opportunity.

Reportedly, Carrie has joined the producers of the Broadway production named Burn The Floor. The show had been initially created as a special performance for Sir Elton John on his 50th birthday in 1997. The present version will basically be a Latin and ballroom dance spectacular and will start with the previews on July 25.

The show, which has been created, directed and choreographed by Jason Gilkison, will finally open on August 2 at the Longacre Theatre and will feature professionals from Dancing with the Stars. The cast will reportedly include 18 international award-winning dancers who as a group own more than 100 dance titles.

It is worthy mentioning here that Carrie is the only American judge on Dancing with the Stars TV show. Also, before donning the cap of a producer, she has directed the first ever touring version of Dancing with the Stars and has also worked as a choreographer for The TV Land Awards, The Kids Choice Awards, So You Think You Can Dance and American Idol, among others.

Commenting on her latest career decision, Carrie was reported to have said, “After over 20 years of experience with many talented artists in television and film, I’m thrilled to get my feet wet on Broadway with this wonderful production.” Well Carrie, we all are also hoping and praying for your success on Broadway!
Meanwhile, we all are waiting to see you judge the contestants in the upcoming ninth season of Dancing With The Stars TV show, which is arriving with some changes.

Hey folks! The phenomenal success of Dancing with the Stars TV show has helped in making the show popular not only in America but across the globe. It is a really great show that has crossed man made boundaries and united the world on a stage where passion for dance is all that matters.

It is a well known fact that like many other American shows, UK also airs its own version of Dancing with the Stars. So it was natural for the whole world to take notice, when one of the judges of the show was reported to be recovering form an operation for prostrate cancer.

65 year old ballroom dancer Len Goodman, who has been judging Dancing with the Stars UK version, was reported to have undergone surgery for getting the tumor removed, early this month. Although, Len became aware of his illness in March 2009, he delayed the surgery till he had finished shooting for the show, in May 2009.

This judge of Dancing with the Stars did not tell about his diagnosis to many people, because he felt that it was not necessary to blabber about it to one and all. He also revealed that he was able to postpone the surgery since the doctors had informed him that the tumor had not reached an advanced stage yet and that he was not facing a life-or-death scenario.

Len earned instant fame when he became the head judge of the UK version of Dancing with the Stars and since then he maintained his position as one of the most popular judges of the show.

An enthusiastic Len said that he felt that the biggest drawback of the surgery was that he had not been able to play golf. As for returning to Dancing with the Stars, Len said that he would surely be back in September.
