“Dancing With the Stars Live” At The Tropicana In Las Vegas Gets Green Light
A couple of months ago, we reported how there were plans are to bring a live version of Dancing With the Stars to the Tropicana in Las Vegas, Nevada. According to Robin Leach of Las Vegas Weekly, the idea was cancelled and now it’s getting the “green light” again.
The new Las Vegas dance show will supposedly feature a combination of dance professionals and Hollywood stars who have won and also who have come up short in their attempts to win the mirror-ball trophy.
One of the rumored contenders to dance is Dancing With The Stars Season 9 champ Donny Osmond.
The audience members at the Tropicana will also be invited to participate in an “interactive challenge” during the shows.
You can read more details in our previous posting as well as in a new article at the Las Vegas Weekly which talks about a male pro from Dancing With The Stars helping to choreograph the show and stage in the past planning stages. Who do you think that might be? Louis?
Personal note: I really hope this comes true. I’m planning a trip to Vegas in the Fall and I would love to see this show if it were to happen!! How about you?
Probably Louis or Dymetry as a choreogrpaher.
This has got to happen. Then, we need to put together a Pure DWTS meetup at it too.
Ok I honestly don’t get what exactly they’re doing in Vegas…can someone explain?:)
I have this fear of a show put together too hastily. The Vegas one, I mean.
I would go to Vegas just for that!
Yeah, Baby!!
I’m in for Vegas!!! 🙂
Cheryl said they start rehearsing February 20. I wonder if the change on rehearsal date has to with this Vegas Show?
Maddy, where did you see where Cheryl said Feb. 20th? According to Robin Leach in Heidi’s Pro Watch post, they start rehearsing Mar. 3rd.
One of Cheryl’s interview posted here. Th one with Jonas cohosting.
Oh, that’s right…but, I think she was just guessing a date in that one. It wasn’t a solid confirmation.
Adding: Though I would think they’d want to start rehearsing earlier than March 3rd? Feb. 20th or there after would make more sense?
I think the 20th is too early, but March 3rd is too late. I also think Cheryl was guessing. I would bet the start date depends on the celeb and the producers.
From the articles etc….it sounds like they are saying pros and celebs from past and the Current? season will be featured and the show runs just about the same dates as S14?
Am I misinterpreting-if for example Karina and Tristan have partners for S14, they may fly to Vegas while they are competing, and appear in shows there?
