Derek Hough has judged “Dancing with the Stars” for a season and a half now, but let’s not forget that he’s also a dancer and choreographer with a record six Mirror Ball Trophies and a near-record three Emmys on his shelf. He gave us another reminder of his artistic bona fides during “Horror Night” when he and his partner Hayley Erbert performed “Tango of the Dead.” And it could win him a landmark fourth Emmy. Watch the performance above.
“DWTS” has won four total Emmys for choreography: Hough has three of those, while Mandy Moore has the other. It trails “So You Think You Can Dance,” which has claimed a remarkable 12 trophies in the category. That’s due in large part to the fact that “DWTS” is an amateur competition with mostly inexperienced dancers learning the basics, while “Sytycd” is a competition for highly trained dancers performing professional-level routines.
