From the “Dancing With the Stars” ballroom to the Bravo-verse.
Mirror ball champ Val Chmerkovskiy makes a cameo in the trailer for the network’s new reality series “Dancing Queens,” coaching cast member Donie Burch through what appears to be a tough time.
“I’ve never failed,” Burch tearfully tells him in the clip. “So this is the first thing that I’m not super good at.”
Though the preview doesn’t feature Chmerkovskiy’s response, the first-time dad, 37 — who welcomed son Rome Valentin with wife Jenna Johnson in January — looks concerned and ready to offer Burch advice in her moment of distress.
New York City native Burch is one of six bold and talented women who stars in “Dancing Queens.”
The group also includes the Big Apple’s Gaëlle Benchetrit, Colette Marotto and Pooja Mehta of of Scottsdale, Ariz., Leonie Biggs of Hawthorn, N.J., and Sabrina Strasser of Toronto, Canada.
The series follows these highly skilled amateurs as they invest time and money into their fervent passion for ballroom dance — despite demanding responsibilities as mothers, wives and businesswomen.
“Everyone has a hobby,” one of the ladies says in a voiceover, while another chimes in, “But ours costs six figures a year.”
Another unapologetically states, “We pay hot men to dance with us and don’t think twice about sabotaging a friend to win.”
While the “Dancing Queens” don’t always get along, the one thing they have in common is their all-consuming obsession with trophies, titles and recognition in the cutthroat world of Pro-Am dance competitions.
As Biggs puts it, “I like to be the best at things.”
“Dancing Queens” premieres Tuesday, May 9, at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
