Following the excitement of Super Bowl Night, Shum Jr. and Johnson are relishing the success of their haunting routine, especially after receiving a perfect score with the esteemed dancer Shirley Ballas serving as a guest judge.
Validation Through Acclaimed Judging
In a recent conversation with E!, the Glee alum, still dressed in his striking blood-soaked costume, expressed the significance of Ballas’s feedback. “We don’t do this show for validation, but that was the best validation of having someone like her to get the feedback and talk about what she loved about it,” he admitted. “But we weren’t expecting it.”
A Personal Connection to the Dance Community
Shum Jr. emphasized the personal impact of Ballas’s recognition, turning to Johnson and saying, “I know how much it means to you. Also for me, as someone who came late to the game, like watching Shirley on Next Pro, and then going back and watching her videos, I’m like, ‘Oh my god!'”
