He has won the coveted Mirrorball Trophy a record six times already, and Derek Hough will have a chance to make it seven as he returns for season 23 of Dancing With the Stars.
Hough’s return was unexpected, but the pro dancer explained the surprising turn of events in an August 29 Facebook post.
“This fall, I was planning on being immersed in rehearsals for Singin’ in the Rain on Broadway, but due to successes of the shows currently running, that project has been delayed because there simply isn’t a theater available,” Hough wrote. “I’m excited to say that I’ll be back on Dancing with the Stars for season 23.”
DWTS returns on September 12.
