Derek Hough Finally Speaks On Ariana Grande’s SNL Dance Moves And Fans Are Debating Everything
If Ariana Grande was on Dancing with the Stars, she’d get a “10” from Derek Hough.
Following Grande’s performance hosting Saturday Night Live this past weekend, the DWTS judge took to Instagram sharing a reel of one of the show’s sketches where the ‘Wicked’ star showed off her dancing skills.
“Can we talk about these gorgeous turns,” the text on top of the video read. He also commented, “It’s so satisfying.”
Hough is no stranger to the “Into You” singer’s moves though. as the two starred in “Hairspray Live!,” a televised adaptation of the famed musical, in 2016.
However, his video got commenters’ wheels turning as a few made a connection between Grande and the ballroom dance competition show.
“I would love for her to do DWTS but I feel like she’s toooo [sic] famous is that possible?” said one commenter.
“I wonder if she’ll do, DWTS,” added another.
The sketch, entitled “Dancing 101,” also starred SNL star Marcello Hernandez, where he and Grande portrayed quirky dance instructors. The sketch also starred Bowen Yang who was marking the end of this SNL career with this most recent episode.
Grande, who happens to be great friends with Yang since starring in both ‘Wicked’ movies together, sent him off by starring in his last sketch with him, playing the wife to a Delta Air Lines worker on his last shift.
Yang’s sudden departure was announced just one day before his final episode on the long-running comedy show.
