Brooke Burke Declines Invitation to 'Dancing With the Stars' 20th Anniversary
5 Nov
Summary
- Brooke Burke was a winner and co-host on 'Dancing With the Stars'
- She praised her time on the show but has no plans to return for the 20th anniversary
- Burke feels she has done everything she needed to do on the show

In a recent interview, Brooke Burke, who won season 7 of 'Dancing With the Stars' and co-hosted the show for 8 seasons, reflected on her time on the popular reality competition series. While Burke praised her experience as "so much fun" and "a great show to work on", she made it clear that she has no plans to return for the show's upcoming 20th anniversary special.
Burke explained that despite the "amazing relationships" she formed during her time on 'DWTS', she feels she has "wrung it out and did everything I needed to do on that show." The former host acknowledged that the show is still "one of the most watched on television", but believes it would be difficult for her to recapture the same "level of excitement and appreciation" she once had.
When her co-guest, Jennie Garth, joked about receiving an email about the 20th anniversary event, Burke concurred, saying, "I'm not going either." She elaborated that a "redo is hard" for her, suggesting that some experiences are best left in the past.
As 'Dancing With the Stars' celebrates two decades on the air, it seems Brooke Burke is content to leave her own legacy on the show behind and focus on new opportunities. Her decision to decline the invitation to the anniversary special reflects a desire to move forward and not revisit her past, even if it was a highly successful and memorable one.
