CBS’s newest reality dance competition ‘Come Dance with Me’ has finally begun and I can assure you it’s one of the most unique concepts we have ever seen on television. 12 young dancers showing their extraordinary moves along with their parents is really entertaining and emotional at the same time. One of the teams entering the show is Shamus and Saeda.

The duo performed beautifully on the stage and the judges were in complete awe of them. Jenna said that the dance had everything, from chemistry to emotions while Tricia believed that they are really amazing on the stage and she can’t wait to see what they do as the show progresses. The team received 21 marks from the judges and received praise from everyone.

It was an emotional moment for Saeda because she wanted her grandmother to see the dance, but she died a couple of months ago. Saeda felt really emotional about being on the show and Dexter Mayefied said that her grandmother was up on that stage with her.

Not just the judges, but social media had a lot to say about their performance and said that Saeda’s grandmother would be so happy after seeing her amazing dance moves. One of the users wrote, “Awwww! Her grandma would be so happy.” Another fan said, “Completely agree. Saeda is the best child dancer we've seen so far and the chemistry with her dad was magical.”



 



 

“Omg she was stunning. Pulled my heart right out my chest,” said another social media user. “Brought me to tears. Finally a show with a positive interaction between parents and children reaching a goal together what a breath of fresh air thank you,” wrote another one.



 



 

Saeda is a student at The Platform Dance Studio, where she currently trains vigorously. She also describes herself as both, a dancer as well as an artist. Meanwhile, Shamus is a public information officer. The only reason for Shamus to do this show is his daughter and wants to tell the world how cool they are.

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