Dancing with the Stars' casting director noticed Mirai Nagasu's "audition" comment
-
"I think she’s charming and great, and I loved her before she even said any of this – when she hit the triple axel," says Deena Katz, Dancing's casting director and co-executive producer. "I think she’s adorable, and I’m still really making the picks on who it is, but obviously she, Adam (Rippon), Nathan (Chen), the Shibutani’s, if I could just do a season of ice skaters, that would be fantastic because I could have filled it up just with them." ALSO: Access Hollywood is bringing Nagasu to the Oscars.
