News: ABC doesn't want gays on DWTS

ABC has reportedly nixed the idea of pairing two male dancers together on an upcoming episode, offering a “definitive no” without further consideration.

TMZ reports a choreographer for openly gay industry newcomer Who Is Fancy suggested the idea to coincide with the theme of Who Is Fancy’s new track “Boys Like You,” which he’ll be performing on the show alongside Ariana Grande and Meghan Trainor.

Since the song is apparently about a man falling in love with another man, the choreographer reportedly sent an email to ABC execs saying it would “be an awesome look to have two males dancing with each other.”

Sources within DWTS’ higher-ups say the idea was “discussed,” however an email reply to the choreographer stated: “Apologies all but this is a definitive no from the network.”

Instead, sources claim DWTS will allow “near dancing” during the performance, suggesting something similar to a recent performance that featured two men dancing together for 20 seconds:

"Near dancing"

Dollas n Diamonds

they had Carlos and Artem dancing together like last week

that said apparently this season is the first ever they've had too guys (not dancing partners but at all even background dancers) dance together so

Derrick Mark and Bruno at the very least are hunties.

ABC is owned by Disney and they always push this "family network" nonsense. It's so ridiculous. Parents need to grow up already.

Abc broadcasts Scandal and HTGmurder show.

If they're worried about DWTS and children, they may want to know that no child watches this show and pays attention.

Because it doesn't work. These dances were invented for man and woman.

Exactly. It's international Dancesport rules that a man and woman should be dancing together too. People need to stop. ABC has went to bat for gays over the past 5 years, almost all their top 10 scripted shows have main gay chatacters. Also, they've have gay contestants on DWTS many times (almost every other season). Even before that, they served everyone gay characters in Desperate Housewives, Ugly Betty and more in a time when gay characters were only seen on LOGO.

Y'all need to stop.

Because their main demographic is southern grandmothers who love a good boycott.

The demographic of DWTS is very wasp-y so this isn't that shocking. Where are the clips of Carlos Pena dancing with a man tho?

that G.U.Y.

The last bastion of heterosexuality

So...is an International Dancesport thing a religion or something?
