Mark Ballas Calls His Jive with Paige VanZant His Absolute Favorite on DWTS
Paige VanZant and Mark Ballas deliver a red hot jive on Dancing With The Stars on Monday night (May 2) in Los Angeles.
The duo earned a perfect score for the night, before teaming up with the rest of the women for a team dance.
“I had been pushing for Paige for a few seasons, because I had seen her fight and I thought size-wise it would be good,” Mark shared about campaigning for Paige. “I know she loves dance, too, so I was like you’ve got to go with this girl in the UFC, she’s going to be one of the next big names. They were like ‘We’re full for this season,’ so I kept grinding it out and finally our casting director called me back and said ‘We’re considering it — can you get in touch?’ and from there everything started.”
Mark is also pictured below with fiance BC Jean at the BritWeek’s 10th Anniversary VIP Reception & Gala at Fairmont Hotel in Los Angeles the day before, where they performed.
