The first dance of CBS’s newest reality show deserved a lot of praise on social media as well and fans congratulated the father-daughter duo for an innovative concept. One of the fans said, “First up? Pretty good. Kennedy and Justin.” Another fan said, “I liked the mechanical doll move.”



 



 



 

Kennedy was just 10 when she joined the competition and represents Clear Talent Group, a popular talent agency representing actors, models, dancers, choreographers, directors, designers, and influencers. She started dancing at the age of 3 and began her dancing career by doing ballet.

On the other hand, Justin, a public information officer by profession, will dance to his princess's tunes on the show. Kennedy's jazz solo to ‘Woman’, choreographed by her mentor Emily Brown, placed first in said category. The same solo also won her Junior Miss Dreammaker, while her jazz lyrical solo to 'Je Suis Malade', choreographed by dance instructor Gloria Hampton, won first in that category, besides bagging the overall first in Junior Advanced solos. 



 

She loves her father very much and wanted him to be a part of this journey so that they can have a great time together. Meanwhile, Justin wants everyone to see her daughter’s extraordinary dance moves in front of the world.

‘Come Dance with Me’ returns to CBS with a new episode every Friday at 8 pm EST.
