Derek Hough and Mark Ballas on The Disney Channel (Video)

Derek and Mark were on four different commercial breaks with the lovely girls Zendaya and Bella from Shake it Up. The compiled video is below. Unfortunately, it lost a lot of quality in editing. Bummer

Vacation OVER!! Let the 2011 Retrospective Begin!!

2011 was an interesting year for Derek fans, wouldn’t you say?? He filmed his first movie (and it better not be his last) and killed it in another season of Dancing with the Stars, with another wonderful partner. To top it off, we had an embarrassment of riches in terms of fantastic Derek-choreographed pro dances….all in one season!! We got to see him dance with his little sister, a new female pro (by new I mean, not his typical partner) and the lovely Allison Holker…one of his newer friends. I think we also witnessed the beginning of The Rise of the Hough….Derek Hough.

So tell me….what were your Top 3 Derek moments of 2011?? It doesn’t have to be DWTS or Cobu 3D…it can be ANYTHING. It just so happens that my Top 3 are probably not unique from anyone else’s.

3) Anything related to hearing about Cobu 3D – but ESPECIALLY when we get to see Derek really tap dance. AND be great at it…no surprise.

2) Co-Hosting Live with Kelly. Nothing says “making it” more than co-hosting this show.

1) Derek Hough and Allison Holker – damn, that was satisfying. I hope he dances with her again.

Honorable Mention: Derek and Ricki – the Psycho Tango. Yes, I’m cheating. It was a pretty significant year for Derek…as shown above…but I can’t leave out one of the most brilliant dances that Derek has ever done with one of my favorite celebrity partners.
