Derek Hough Shops With Shirley Ballas Before DWTS Finale, Helps Homeless Man, and More
Isn’t this a great take of Derek Hough and Shirley Ballas? The two were seen shopping out and about Hollywood yesterday. Shirley wrote a little about it at her Facebook page. She also commented about seeing rehearsals yesterday and described it as “simply wow”. Picture above is courtesy of the Daily Mail. You can see loads of more pics and updates about Derek at Pure Derek Hough including a story about him helping a homeless man. Are we surprised knowing how kind hearted he is?!! Here’s to Team Shawnough tonight!
I find really hard to undertand the hate that he gets sometimes, I just don’t get it. He deserves all the praise that he gets not only for his amazing talents but also because for being a great human being.
I find really cute how close he and Shirley are. the other day Shirley posted a picture with derek’s mom on facebook, I was really glad to see how well they get along, they seen to really like each other.
Laila, I agree. I don’t understand the hate for Derek either. It’s jealousy I think.
of course it is jealousy! there is a thin line between love/hate and both words have very strong meanings- and you can’t feel either of them unless you truly care and are passionate. All the haters can hate away because when he is gone next year they will realize how much he did/meant to this show.
+1^^
Adding: the thing is, fans don’t have to like Derek or his dancing (no one is saying that here!), but, come on, recognize him for the good hearted person and talent he is.
Derek’s kindness shines…you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to see that he is in fact a very kind and good person. The haters will always hate…but the power of love is always greater than the hate. We all do what we are capable of…love or hate…this is a personal choice. But the truth will always prevail…and the truth is that he is not only an incredibly talented dancer and an amazing choreographer..but a very good person too.These being some of the reasons i simply adore the man.
Well said Elara!!!
Agree with everything said above. Also just have to add, some people are just immature and don’t like a person because a lot of other people like the person. It’s silly, but it happens. I’m just glad people here aren’t like that.
From Mark(bible)”Give to the poor and you shall have treasure in heaven” I think Derek has alot of “treasure” built up for the hereafter. I am not a bible quoting person generally but when I see a story like this one the other day about Derek and the homeless guy..because guess I’m just not as nice as DH who always lets ugly remarks roll off his back and never speaks badly about anyone…..it makes me even more angry about ppl hating on him. Whoever said it was jealouy must be right, cause like Heidi and a few others here I have followed news about him closely and for a long time. He’s always diplomatic, polite, choses his words carefuly..just not a bomb-thrower hich is what usually draws hate to a public figure. As Elara said, just adore this man and everything he is. His talent, his kindness and his values. I just wish I was better at following his calm example more than I do.
