Sharna Burgess, a beloved pro from Dancing with the Stars (DWTS), recently shared her dream partner if she were to return to the show: none other than Hugh Jackman! During a chat on the Lightweights podcast, Burgess revealed that Jackman has always been her dream partner, citing his impressive dance background in The Greatest Showman and Broadway experience. She expressed excitement at the thought of partnering with him, hoping it would give her a real shot at winning the coveted Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy.
Burgess hasn’t been a part of the DWTS lineup for the past three seasons but made a surprise return during the 500th episode of the show earlier this year. Fans have since been wondering if she’ll make her full return. If she does, Burgess is aiming for a winning season with a partner who could help her bring home the win, similar to Mark Ballas’ victorious return with Charli D’Amelio.
Her last appearance as a pro was during season 30, where she finished 13th. Burgess has previously won once, in season 27 with radio host Bobby Bones, and has had a successful career with several top finishes. Besides her DWTS fame, Burgess is engaged to her former DWTS partner, Brian Austin Green, and they share a child together.
While there’s no confirmation yet on a DWTS return for Burgess with Hugh Jackman, fans can look forward to more updates by following the show’s social media channels, especially with season 34 on the horizon. In the meantime, you can catch up on previous seasons of Dancing with the Stars on Hulu or Disney Plus.
