Dancing With the Stars Junior airs in a slightly different format than the “grown-up” version of the show. There are young pros matched with celebrity kids and each of the teams have a mentor. The mentors are familiar faces from season 27 of Dancing With the Stars. The pros from DWTS step in to advise the youngsters and help individual teams with their performances. In an interview with pro dancer Cheryl Burke, Burke told us, “I think that the way these kids really love each other and cheer each other on, the way they are so excited for one another and so sad when someone leaves is going to make the viewers fall in love with them.”
Burke, along with the rest of the mentors on DWTS Juniors, are pulling triple duty each week, being a part of Juniors, and appearing on DWTS with two performances each week. It’s safe to say that their dance cards are full.
The season 1 cast of the new junior edition was revealed on the premiere week of DWTS season 27. The young pro dancers on the show are Rylee Arnold, Hailey Bills, Brightyn Brems, Lev Khmelev, Kami Couch, Kamri Peterson, Elliana Walmsley, Artyon Celestine, JT Church, Tristan Ianeiro, Jake Monreal, and Sage Rosen. And, the celebrity contestants include Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson, Black-ish star Miles Brown, Jason Maybaum, General Hospital actor Hudson West, Scottie Pippen’s daughter Sophia Pippen, Stuck in the Middle actress Ariana Greenblatt, Sky Brown, Tripp Palin, Stevie Wonder son Mandla Morris, Kenzie Ziegler from Dance Moms, Addison Osta Smith, and Akash Vukoti.
Pure DWTS has reported that the troupe dancers are Makeila Lawrence, Cody Bingham, Reese Hatala, and Sebastian Jozuka. The hosts for Dancing With the Stars Juniors are former celebrity contestants Frankie Muniz and Jordan Fisher, who previously went on the DWTS tour. As for the judges on the show, they are DWTS pro Val Chmerkovskiy, choreographer Mandy Moore and former DWTS champion Adam Rippon.
