‘Dancing With the Stars’ honored late judge Len Goodman with a routine featuring Maks Chmerkovskiy, Karina Smirnoff, Mark Ballas and more
Dancing With the Stars pulled out all the stops to honor late judge Len Goodman during its Tuesday, October 24, episode.
Ahead of the moving group waltz, for which the women wore white gowns and the men wore crisp tuxedos, the performers shared their memories of Goodman via a pre-recorded video. “I knew Len from when I was 10 years old, so this show felt like, ‘This is home, this is family,’” Julianne, 35, said during the tribute.“You were gonna get the truth from Len Goodman, but he’d do it with his little twinkle,” said Johnson-Herjavec, 47. “If you weren’t doing it , he’d let you now,” Ballas, 37, chimed in.
Prior to the premiere of season 32, the show renamed its prize in memory of Goodman. “The Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy will now be lifted on Dancing With the Stars like the Vince Lombardi trophy is lifted at the Super Bowl,” executive producer Conrad Green told USA Today in September. “We wanted to make Len a permanent part of this show, to always remind people the importance he’s had to Dancing With the Stars and how much he meant to all of us.
