Derek Hough and Peta Murgatroyd at the Mohegan Sun
Apparently, they danced and did a Q&A – then Derek apparently stopped in at a dance competition that was also being held there and all the little girls went crazy. 🙂  Lots of pictures on purederekhough.com but here’s a video of their Shine 360 Cam – you can also see it at MoheganSun.com but the video takes forever to load. Or it did for me.
Love this picture from @LyssPop of Derek and Peta
Here’s another one from her that….well, I love it. 😉
Wow -by @tiffany0507
Derek also did a Schwinn/US Magazine Bike In Event yesterday in NYC
ETA: Here’s the video of the Argentine Tango, if you’re curious. I suggest clicking “full screen”. Pretty damn good.
At some point in this thing, Derek was giving girls roses – I saw several tweets indicating that he gave them one. He better not be auditioning for The Bachelor. 🙂
That 360 photo is EPIC! cannot wait to see them dance together! Hawwwt!!
Way hot!!!! Love the 360 video!! Thanks for posting!!
Agree the 360 photo is Epic and the dance must be some hot.
The 360 video of Derek & Peta=AMAZING!! I know their performance had to be a hotttt one!!
Holy Cow these dancers sure are flexible.
Did Peta cut her hair? Or did she always have extensions? Not sure if I like it shorter.
I”m thinking it was extensions. But who knows for sure. 🙂
I added a few pictures so refresh the page. 🙂
Peta cut her hair I got to talk to her in greenbay she is amazing she told me she was getting a cut I love
That 360 degree video is AH-MAZING! 😀 Peta in the air, and Derek on one foot! I know, it was just a split-second in time, but still… the athleticism Derek displays just floors me sometimes!
The beautiful Sexy Peta and Hot Derek rocking jive

Derek oozes with star power. I swear, I could watch the man dance all day long. He just gets better and better. I wasn’t crazy about the pairing with Peta. She’s a great dancer but too athletic for him I think, but then after the AT with Allison everything would probably pale by comparison.
Wow…just saw videos on utube of Derek and Peta’s dances …Hot, sharp and dynamic. Beautiful performances!
Hope to see them dance together more.
I was at Mohegan Sun today and watched while they did the 360! Derek and Peta seemed amazed by it when the men showed it to them. I also had the unbelievable opportunity to go to a Meet and Greet before the dances. Ladies, he is everything you think he is and more. What a true gentleman. So personable, approachable and totally HOT! The roses for the Argentine Tango were there and he was checking them. I asked if he was giving out the roses like the Bachelor! What a smile! After using the roses in the AT, Derek and Peta tossed the rest to the crowd. It was a once in a lifetime experience that I will never forget!
As each year goes by Derek just gets better looking. What a talented dancer and all aroud nice guy! Next up I would love to see him dance with Karina!
It is totally not fair how men get better looking with age. Not fair at all.
I though the dances with Peta were amazing, especially the AT. That might be my new favorite pairing in terms of pros on the show.
Just love seeing Derek doing so many things lately…he just is such a presence. Love what I’ve seen so far of his Mohegan Sun appearance w/Peta…who I do like a lot. Even so, it seems he was so much the one to watch there. When I saw Rock of Ages today, he really owned his cameo as well. So much talent and charisma…fingers crossed for more and better ops for Derek that will showcase him for all he’s worth.
The Argentine Tango was hot, hot, hot! Great precision! Derek & Peta are amazing together. Their Jive was fast, crisp too. I’m really enjoying seeing them dance together. I knew they would sizzle and sizzle they did.
Loved the crowd’s reaction.-Lots of screaming-Can’t blame them! Derek does have that mesmerizing star presence.. Can’t wait to see him on the big screen!
Hoping to see Peta & Derek in some pro dances in the upcoming season should they both return.
BTW, I think Peta’s pretty incredible too.. I think I like her better with Derek then Karina! They just flow so well together!!
Glad she got the opportunity to shine this season!!
Wow, Peta looks awesome!
Been dying to see Derek dance with Peta (+Sharna) just to see how they’d be together…look out Karina there is now some competition in the room. So Hot !! or is that just Derek spreading his growing “hotness”. Don’t know… but what ever it is they need to keep it up. For so many years ballroom dance was all about “Arthur Murray studios and little mustashioed, skinny male instructors” This (hot, young dynamic performers, like Derek+Peta) is just what “dance-world” needs !
I’m the odd-man-out on this pairing :)) Derek definitely sizzled, but I saw no chemistry, or hotness as a dancing duo. Would have loved to see what he and Karina could do.
#Katarina. I also understand what you R saying..I think one of the reasons DWTS is popular is because I think when a pro dances with a non-pro, you actually see a little vulnerability and/or chemistry much more than when they dance with another pro. Pros get very technical. are about speed precision.lines..and unless they really “get into” and try to inhabit a song to draw in the crowd, it’s not as dynamic sometimes. Derek did it with Anna-and definitely often w/Karina. I think he and Peta are still getting used to one another and frankly, as riled as that crowd sounded, I think they just wanted to give them a bombastic performance. But ther was “nuance” there especially in AT…vid /cameraman is just not as good. If they did that AT on DWTS, it would have a whole diffrent feel to it.
Mimi and Katarina, I was at Mohegan Sun yesterday to see Derek and Peta. The dances were amazing. The only problem was the size of the stage. It wasn’t too big and Derek even joked about everyone being ready to catch them if they fell off the edge. The dances needed to be compact, and I think that could have affected the performance whenever they got near the edge. The stage was about 5 feet off the floor, surrounded by fans taking pictures. I know I was worried for them – can’t imagine how they felt. And yes, if they had the full floor at DWTS, WOW!
I didn’t really like this pairing. Both are great but maybe it was the size of the stage or maybe it was the chroeogrpahy but their dances didn’t wow me in those videos. I always thought that the cheryl and derek pairing was the same way. both great dancers but together they are underwheling (the Design a dance a couple seasons back is a great example). Derek and Anna was a cool pairing though.
the AT Derek and Peta did is epic!!!!! i loved it….so intense…sharp..passionate…i loved the love avalanche Derek got on twitter yesterday…it was a great event …i am amazed every time i see him dance..and i agree..it is soo not fair that men keep getting and better with age….well…at least Derek does…my favorite news from yesterday is that Derek is going back in the studio to make some new music…happy happy day…
Wow, Derek and Peta were amazing. Hot, sexy and talented! Such a treat!
Hopefully the producers will put Derek and Peta in a pro number sometime soon. Hot!
So what happened at the Schwinn event…didn’t anybody go to that. What did D do there? This pic and one D tweeted is all I’ve seen on it
The Schwinn event was a Bike to the Movie held by the Hudson River and 70th St. in Riverside Park in NYC. I could have gone, but it was easier to drive to CT on Sunday. I think it was just a picture opportunity. It was a family night event with the movie being Puss In Boots. Probably the best way to get there is by bike. Doesn’t appear on the maps that there was a parking area.
Oh, this was great, and the AT was amazing! Thank you!
[…] was able to capture that “fire” in top form in the video below. As as you know from an earlier posting from our Miss Heidi, Peta and Derek performed last weekend at the Mohegan Sun. If you haven’t […]
