PureDWTS Watchout #2: Anthony Scaramucci Asked On Dancing With The Stars Again
You might have seen our previous Anthony Scaramucci “watch-out” post when TMZ asked if he’d like to dance on Dancing With The Stars. At the time, he acted shocked and kind of dismissed the question and said he couldn’t dance. Well, in a new interview this week, he said, “We’ll see, who knows”(more below). Also, last night, DWTSgossip, PureDWTS, myself, other dancers (thanks Kristyn), and people were followed by him at twitter. Kinda makes one go “hmmmm”. Did this watch out just get a little stronger? Let us know what you think in comments. From Hollywood Reporter….
Perhaps the most revealing moment in Scaramucci’s Media Comeback Tour came in the last minute of a Facebook Live interview conducted by ABC News political director Rick Klein.
Scaramucci lit up when he was asked if he’d appear on NBC’s Saturday Night Live. “Get Lorne Michaels to call me,” he responded. “I don’t know. I’ll bring my sunglasses for that.” He also jovially parried a question about appearing on ABC’s Dancing With the Stars — he’s not a great dancer, he said, but added, “We’ll see, who knows.” (An SNL spokesperson did not respond to a question about a possible Mooch appearance.)

Like Linz posted at twitter, he could have been hacked too. lol
If you were followed just last night, he was very busy following last night. The whole dance group appeared far down on his followers list. Dance Network, Idolxfactor Al, Burn The Floor, DWTS Live Tour, Pros and Troupe, some fans, Henry and Serge! I think he was hacked.
Could be…or it could be he paid someone to get more followers like some do and maybe he wanted to take advantage of all the DWTS talk?
Also a FYI: this guy doesn’t need DWTS in the least (except trying to salvage his reputation). He’s a mega Wall Street millionaire.
I actually am starting to think that out of any of the rumored people he might be enjoyable. If anyone watched him on Colbert this past week that’s what’s leading me to believe he may actually be fun. I guess we will see what happens but I’m not as absolutely against it as I was originally.
Scaramucci reminds me of a mafia guy. His body language, the way he talks, etc. He even looks like one. I am sure he could easily be cast in a mafia movie and his character would be listed in the credits as mafia guy #4. That being said, he does have some charisma to him. I would not mind if he was one of the celebrity contestants as long as Emma and Lindsay are not his partners. If Karina came back, I could see her with him. I think it would be hilarious.
if cheryl comes back, i can see those two paired up
Matthew, I love that idea.
I think he’ll do it if he’s asked. Maybe to try and salvage his rep, but more because the man LOVES attention. Out of all of the possible former Trump employees, he’d probably have the easiest time with it, given his charisma and ability to laugh at himself. I echo what others have said that I think he could actually be enjoyable.
What will be interesting to me is how the general audience reacts. As everyone has said, conservatives tend to do well on the show (although he’s probably not actually a conservative). Being associated with Trump, however, is a different and much more unpopular label. I know we’ve had Marla, but this guy worked in the administration and loves Trump. I’ll be curious to see how that plays out/if people care.
Oooo Matthew and vougerista. I’m for the Cheryl idea. Hopefully not Emma or Lindsay. Maybe Sharna and my reasoning is id love to see her with someone a little older but with a fun personality. I feel like it would be a fun partnership to watch.
Definately keeping my eye out to see if he does anything else like that now for sure. This could potentially be fun if given the right pro partner (I could see him with peta lol)
The very fact that he would go on Colbert (being a long time viewer) shows that he does have some balls in a good way and not just the trash way.
If you pay someone to get more followers, there are easier ways to do it than to have someone sit and follow specific accounts.
Of course he’s a wall street millionaire. Does Trump hire any one else?
