Julia Stiles Honors Heath Ledger on DWTS

Julia Stiles recently delivered a moving tribute to the late Heath Ledger on Dancing With the Stars. The performance, dedicated to Ledger who passed away in January 2008, recreated a pivotal scene from their 1999 film, '10 Things I Hate About You.' Stiles, alongside her professional partner Ezra Sosa, danced to Frankie Valli's 'Can't Take My Eyes Off You,' incorporating iconic moments from the movie.

The emotional routine concluded with Stiles looking up at a screen displaying a photo of her and Ledger. Following this, several of their '10 Things I Hate About You' castmates, including Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Gabrielle Union, joined her on stage. Stiles emphasized that the tribute needed the entire cast, describing them as a 'pack,' rather than just one individual representing the film.

David Krumholtz, another co-star from the film, was unable to attend the live show. He explained via an Instagram video that he was in the Catskill Mountains of upstate New York, shooting a movie. Krumholtz expressed his deep pride in Stiles' performance and his daily remembrance of Ledger. He also humorously noted that his newly shaved head might have made his appearance on the dance floor unusual, potentially becoming 'Internet fodder.'
