Jenna Dewan Tatum is the newest member of the World of Dance team, signing on to NBC’s upcoming dance competition as the show’s host. In addition to her hosting duties, Dewan Tatum will be mentoring the competitors while providing viewers with insight into the technical elements of dance. Jenna Dewan Tatum joins the World of Dance lineup of talent that includes Jennifer Lopez, Derek Hough, and NE-YO as judges. Lopez also serves as executive producer alongside Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, Benny Medina, Kris Curry, Matilda Zoltowski, David Gonzalez, Matthew Everitt, and Al Hassas.
“World of Dance is a show by dancers for dancers,” said Lopez. “Jenna is the perfect addition to join NE-YO, Derek, and me in our World of Dance family. We are thrilled to have her.”
“Jenna’s background as a dancer, entertainer, and actress make her the perfect choice to host and work alongside our three incredibly talented judges,” said Meredith Ahr, President, Universal Television Alternative Studio, NBC Entertainment. “We can’t wait to get started and give these four superstars a chance to both articulate and demonstrate how transformational dance can be.”
Award-winning choreographers Napoleon and Tabitha D’umo (‘Nappytabs’) are reuniting with Lopez for World of Dance. The Emmy-winning couple choreographed Lopez’ Las Vegas show, “All I Have.” Dancing with the Stars‘ Alex Rudzinski is directing the 10-episode first season.
