Brooke Burke Fired From "Dancing With The Stars"

Brooke Burke will not be joining "Dancing with the Stars."  




ABC confirmed the news on Friday night, after Burke, 42, told E! that she was fired less than a month before the new season kicks off.

Burke, who has hosted the popular show with Tom Bergeron since 2010, said in a statement: "I have enjoyed seven seasons co-hosting "DWTS" but understand the need for change considering the position of the show at this juncture."

"I've always been one to embrace change and looking forward to pursuing opportunities I previously wasn't able to entertain because of contractual obligations to the show," the former winner continued.



"I've seen my fair share of shocking eliminations in the ballroom but this one takes the cake," Burke added.

"Dancing with the Stars" executive producer Conrad Green revealed: "We can confirm that Brooke Burke-Charvet will not be joining us next season. She's been a wonderful part of the "Dancing with the Stars" family since her triumphant win in season seven and will unquestionably be missed by our entire team."

"We'd like to thank Brooke for her years of great service," Green concluded.
