*The widow of Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss will join the judges’ table on the new season of “So You Think You Can Dance.”
Allison Holker Boss, a professional dancer, met her late husband through the series. She will join Nigel Lythgoe, Maks Chmerkovskiy, and longtime host Cat Deeley when ‘SYTYCD’ Season 18 premieres March 4, People reports.
The Fox show announced the new judging panel on social media, writing, “Meet us on the dance floor 🕺💃 #SYTYCD is BACK for Season 18 – Monday, March 4 on @foxtv and next day on @hulu!”
“So You Think You Can Dance is television’s preeminent dance competition, and we are thrilled to bring the beloved show back for an all-new season,” Allison Wallach, President of Unscripted Programming at Fox Entertainment, said in a statement, per People. “Reuniting Cat, Nigel, Allison and Comfort and, welcoming Maksim into the SYTYCD family, is sure to make Season 18 bigger than ever for their legions of fans around the globe.”
According to the network, contestants will “compete in new, intense dance challenges that will give them a real taste of the career, from performing in a music video or a football halftime show to going toe-to-toe on stage with a Broadway performer.”
The top 3 finalists will compete for the grand prize of $100,000.
Meanwhile, Allison recently sold the family’s Encino home and upgraded to an “ultra-modern farmhouse in L.A.” for $5 mil,” per TMZ.
The outlet reports that Allison listed the home she shared with her late husband for $3,795,000 and sold it for $3,525,000.
Holker was granted half of tWitch’s future earnings earlier this year. The beloved dancer and DJ died by suicide in December 2022. He was pronounced dead in the Los Angeles suburb of Encino. tWitch was 40.
Previously, we reported that documents obtained by CNN show that a Los Angeles Superior Court judge granted Holker one-half interest in 100 percent of all shares of Boss’s company, Stephen Boss Productions, Inc., along with one-half of the interest earned in an investment account.
Holker filed the property petition earlier this year due to him not having a will at the time of his death.
