In the last week and a half, Cheryl Burke and her Dancing with the Stars partner Cody Rigsby tested positive for breakthrough cases of COVID-19.

Since they weren’t injured, the ABC show came up with creative ways to keep them both on the show over the last two episodes. For the first week, they had the judges judge a filmed rehearsal. Then for this week, they danced at their homes on opposite coasts.

Today, Burke gave an update on their future with the show. Let’s start with the good news. The professional dancer is out of quarantine! There’s more; on Friday, Rigsby will fly back to LA. This brings us to the really great news. They will be back dancing in the ballroom on Monday and Tuesday for Disney week!

However, until he is back in LA, Burke will be teaching her partner via Zoom.

I am so happy that they are back in the studio this week. First, because they are feeling better. Second, because I can stop caring about the show again. That means all I have to care about is what ridiculous outfits Tyra Banks will be wearing throughout the episode. I bet she comes out dressed like Minnie Mouse on Monday. Our poor eyes.

Then again, this could all be moot if IATSE goes on strike. If they do, all production in Hollywood will shut down. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

So this is how Cheryl Burke and Cody Rigsby danced on DWTS

Last week, Cheryl Burke and her Dancing with the Stars partner, Cody Rigsby, tested positive for COVID-19. It looked like their time on the show was over. But it wasn’t.

The ABC dancing competition decided they could dance. But how because they are both being quarantined on opposite coasts? They did a Jazz routine together from their homes.

How did it go? It wasn’t perfect. They weren’t in sync through most of their dance. But, they have COVID-19. Burke had to teach Rigsby through a computer from 3,000 miles away. To me, that is beyond impressive.

They didn’t deserve a perfect 30 (Derek Hough missed the episode because he was exposed to COVID-19). But they also didn’t deserve the 18 that the judges gave them. With all the changes, I am surprised that all the three original judges are still there. Time to move on and take Tyra Banks with them.

Did Burgsby make you say Gimme More or no more?

Hey Tyra Banks, hasn’t Britney Spears been through enough?

Tonight was Britney Spears’ night on Dancing with the Stars. So, of course, Tyra Banks dressed up as the singer.

There are just so many problems with that. The model, 47, is too old to copy a look that Britney wore when she was a teen. And as a model, she should know what looks flattering on her and what doesn’t. Neither dress made her look like she was ready to walk the runway. The only carpet she seems ready to walk is an all-you-can-eat buffet.

Banks likes that we are talking about her costumes. What she doesn’t get is that we are laughing at her because we think she looks like a joke.

Cheryl Burke teases how she and Cody Rigsby will dance on DWTS tonight

Last week, Cheryl Burke and her partner, Cody Rigsby, tested positive for breakthrough cases of COVID-19. It seemed like they danced their last dance on Dancing with the Stars. However, the show will go on for them tonight.

On Friday, they told Good Morning America that they will be dancing on tonight’s episode even though they are both quarantined on different coasts. How? Burke gave us a little glimpse as the ABC dancing competition converts her living room into a production studio while her partner is on his computer 3,000 miles away.

When it comes to Rigsby, he says he is doing much better. So much so, he is cleaning his house in between lessons.

Talking about lessons, Peleton will be reairing his Britney Spears’ one at 7:15p tonight, shortly before he dances to her tune Gimme More in the style of Jazz.

Cheryl Burke and Cody Rigsby will dance on Monday’s DWTS despite having COVID-19
October 1st, 2021 under Dancing with the Stars. [ Comments: none ]

On Sunday, Cheryl Burke announced that she has a breakthrough case of COVID-19. So on Monday, Dancing with the Stars came up with a creative way to keep them in the competition. They had the judges judge one of their rehearsals.

We didn’t know how they would continue on because Burke is in the middle of a 10-day quarantine.

But then yesterday happened, and something happened that made their future on the dancing conpetition seem bleak. Burke’s partner, Cody Rigsby, also tested positive for a breakthrough case of coronavirus, the second time he has had COVID this year.

Does that mean they are out? They are down, but not out. The dancing duo told Good Morning America’s Zohreen Shah, they will be dancing this week! How? They will be performing from their homes, on different coasts. How? We will find out on Monday, but even I am not sure.

If they somehow make it happen and look semi-descent, they better get a 40 and a standing ovation. I mean, it is admirable that they are dancing with COVID-19. But to do a routine 3,000 miles apart is mind-blowing.

Good luck and get well to them.

Oh, and Tyra Banks better not make it about her. That is an even harder task than what Burke and Rigsby were assigned.
