DWTS Couple Profile: Penn and Kym
March 15th, 2008
Season 6 of Dancing With The Stars will be a magical season. No, not the Mickey Mouse/Disneyland magic. More like the kind of magic that makes you scratch your head. The kind of magic that gets the belly laughs. Penn Jillette, the taller half of world famous duo Penn & Teller will try to quickstep through those bear traps and flying bullets and set the stage on fire. Not literally please.
For thirty years, Penn and Teller preformed their own unique brand of off-the-wall magic that pushes the envelop (and probably set it on fire, then eating it) of magic as we know it. They’ve caught bullets in their mouths and played with the Boston Pops. Now, they headline their own show at the Rio in Las Vegas. Add to that his Emmy nominated Penn & Teller: BullSh*t and acclaimed documentary The Aristocrats. This time, Penn will put on a tux and hopefully make it look classy.
He is in good hands with veteran DWTS professional dancer Kym Johnson.
The always smiling Kym has always elevated the level of her celebrity partner. On Season 4, Kym and Joey Fatone went onto the Finals and took second place overall. Penn and Kym should be a lot of fun to watch on the Latin side of the competition. The only issue will be Penn’s 6 foot 6 inch height and his focus on the dance.
