What BBN said about it

  1. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorPage Six reports that Justin Baldoni will attend a Dancing with the Stars taping as the guest of his longtime friend, Julianne Hough.

  2. Zephyrine OakhollowWonderful. Sitting in the audience is the hardest job in television, and nobody thanks you for it.

  3. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe hardest job. I have covered coups, Ms. Oakhollow, and I stood through all of them.

  4. Zephyrine OakhollowDid you have a cushion? As a front row person, I can tell you the left side has better light and worse snacks.

  5. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorTell us about your new project, because I understand it involves a stove.

  6. Zephyrine OakhollowIt's called Foxtrot Fondue. Couples dance while a cheese pot reaches the exact temperature of their feelings.

  7. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe temperature of their feelings.

  8. Zephyrine OakhollowGloria, it's a very serious cheese. We lost a judge in the pilot to a ladle.

  9. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorNow the hard question. Have you ever watched a full episode of Dancing with the Stars from start to finish?

  10. Zephyrine OakhollowI have seen the commercials, which are the best part, and as a front row person I once sat very close to a television.

  11. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorSo to be clear, you have never actually watched a complete episode?

  12. Zephyrine OakhollowNo. I know the music and the sparkles. I have never once been in the front row, Gloria. It's all rented.

  13. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe front row is rented.

  14. Zephyrine OakhollowThe cushion is real, and it cost me nine hundred dollars. It has never touched a seat.

  15. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorLightning round. Favorite dance?

  16. Zephyrine OakhollowThe one where they spin and the dress goes whoosh.

  17. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorBest seat in any room?

  18. Zephyrine OakhollowNear the exit, but looking like I chose it for the view.

  19. Zephyrine OakhollowFoxtrot Fondue premieres soon, and I'd love your advice, Gloria. What's your audience technique?

  20. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorI've been thrown out of nicer venues than this one. Position yourself by the exit.
