DWTS pro Kym Johnson is Broadway bound

DWTS1106.jpg It's a long way from Sydney, Australia to Broadway, but Dancing With the Stars professional dancerKym Johnson is making the trek and she couldn't be happier. This season's favorite to win, alongside partner Donny Osmond, has signed on to appear in Burn The Floor, currently running on Broadway, after the show's finale. While Kym's making her Broadway debut, she's quite familiar with the high-energy show. "I was in the original cast of Burn the Floor," Kym tells In Touch. "We work-shopped it and I was part of the 1999 cast. In fact we performed at Elton John's birthday party and Donny was there. I didn't know he was a guest at the party. It's crazy! They asked me if I would like to come back," says Kym, adding "a lot of the cast is still the same people. That was my family for six years. I lived with them and toured the world with them. I am so excited. Broadway has been a dream of mine since I was a kid." Kym isn't the only one thrilled about performing in the Big Apple, Donny is just as happy for her. "I am dancing with a Broadway star and it's fantastic," Donny tells In Touch." But there is still one thing left for both Donny and Kym to accomplish before she starts her new gig - win this season of DWTS.

Demi Moore: Rock Bottom
It could have been a happy night for Demi Moore — a chance to put the most painful and humiliating period of her life behind her, even if just for a few hours. But while Demi had been nominated for a Directors Guild award for co-directing the Lifetime special Five, she spent the January 28 ceremony in hiding as she coped with the fallout from a drug incident that landed her in the hospital five days earlier. “She’s literally hiding in shame over how far she has fallen,” a pal shares.

Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie On The Rocks?
Could Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. be the next in a long list of celebrity couples heading for divorce? Although their rep denies the story, the duo, who have managed to remain largely out of the spotlight throughout their relationship, raised eyebrows recently when Sarah, 34, walked the Golden Globes red carpet solo — and without her enormous diamond engagement ring.

Tabatha Coffey’s Tough Love
“Look, I know it’s like boot camp when I come in,” says Tabatha Takes Over star Tabatha Coffey with a twinkle in her eye and a smile so broad that fans of her hit show might not even recognize her. The Bravo star admits with a giggle that channeling her inner drill sergeant is often the only way to get the job done.

Seal’s Ex: Don’t Take Him Back
The song that Seal chose for his performance on a recent episode of Ellen — Al Green’s “Let’s Stay Together” — seemed specifically designed to make his estranged wife, Heidi Klum, reconsider her decision to end their marriage. While Seal may have good reason to endear himself to Heidi — who has legions of fans and pulled in a whopping $20 million last year — former supermodel Tatjana Patitz, 45, maintains that the singer is a selfish, immature man who is prone to frightening rages. “He is not a nice person,” Tatjana, who dated Seal for nearly a year, tells In Touch.
