Tom Bergeron is opening up about his exit from 'Dancing with the Stars.' The veteran TV host, 68, said during the Oct. 23 episode of the 'Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans' podcast that he was fired from the star-studded reality dance competition in 2020 after objecting to the casting of former White House press secretary Sean Spicer the previous year.
.com has reached out to ABC, 'Dancing with the Stars' and Andrew Llinares, an executive producer of the show during Spicer's season, for comment. Bergeron told Burke he was so dead set against Spicer's appearance that he offered to step aside as host that season. The program's showrunner responded by telling Bergeron that if he took a season off, he could be let out of his contract entirely, according to the host.
