Mormon Wives Were Built For Dancing With The Stars

by

The popular “MomTok” trend, known for viral dances on TikTok, is moving to a bigger stage: ABC’s *Dancing With The Stars*. Whitney Leavitt and Jennifer Affleck, stars of *The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives*, are among the 14 celebrities competing in season 34. Leavitt will be paired with seasoned *DWTS* pro Mark Ballas, a three-time champion, while Affleck will dance with newcomer Jan Ravnik, who’s also known for his work with Taylor Swift and Post Malone. With fierce competition and popular music, these stars from *The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives* seem perfectly suited for the show.

Each Tuesday, popular social media personalities will compete on *Dancing with the Stars*, hoping to win the competition. Even if they don’t become famous on platforms like #MomTok, they can still claim the title of Utah’s best TikTok dancer.

Whitney’s “Golden” Tango

It was wild at Whitney’s premiere! Besides seeing almost the whole cast of *Sister Wives* – even Demi! – I found out she used to compete against another dancer named Witney Carson when they were kids, at different studios in Utah. Honestly, it feels like she’s always getting pulled into some kind of drama, doesn’t it? Her first dance earned a 15 out of 20, though there was a little mix-up with the scoring – Bruno accidentally gave an 8 instead of a 7. That was definitely our first bit of drama for the night!

Jen’s Salsa to “Nuevayol”

Jen celebrated her Latina heritage during their performance, while Jan seemed to long for his days working with ladders. He playfully lifted Jen several times during their salsa routine, joking that if he couldn’t dance *on* a ladder, he might as well *be* one. Their first dance earned them a score of 12 out of 20. Although Jen’s cousin wasn’t present, her husband Zach showed his support with a custom shirt featuring her face – let’s hope that doesn’t inspire any overly revealing performances!
