Carrie Ann Inaba might not be a contestant on Dancing With the Stars, but that doesn’t mean her outfits don’t rival those of folks competing in the ballroom.
The 54-year-old judge of the Disney+ show blew fans away when she wore a stunning spaghetti strap in a TikTok posted by fellow DWTS judge Derek Hough. The clip featured the popular TikTok sound which highlighted their close friendship. What’s more, it also gave them the opportunity to show off each other’s sleek looks. Carrie Ann wore the show-stopping outfit for week three of season 31 during James Bond Night.
She looked glam in an orange satin dress with a formfitting corset top and a thigh-high slit. She finished off the look with a red lip, curly hair and gold heels. The former ABC star shined even more with sparkling jewelry, including a delicate diamond necklace and matching bracelet.
Similar to Derek’s reaction, Dancing With the Stars fans also couldn’t stop sending fire emojis in her comment section when Carrie Ann reposted the video on to her Instagram.
“You look INCREDIBLE in orange! And I love you both! Actually, I love all the judges,” wrote one fan. “Rocking this color like no other!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥,” another said. “Gurrrrrrl I don’t know if you’ve ever looked better! I’ve never been to your page but saw this color on you while watching live and had to come to tell you 🔥🔥🔥,” a different fan added.
Even some DWTS cast favorites showed up with sweet notes. “❤️,” commented fellow judge Bruno Tonioli. “Haha OMG that orange dress on you!!! 🧡🧡🧡,” wrote professional dancer and member of the show Peta Murgatroyd.
Outfit aside, the reality competition series is intensifying with Monday night’s challenge having celebrities and their pro-dancer partners dance to the rhythm of Disney’s most famous movies. So far, eliminations have included Sex and the City alum Jason Lewis and partner Peta, RHONJ‘s Teresa Giudice and Pasha Pashkov and Charlie’s Angels Cheryl Ladd and Louis van Amstel. Some of the remaining stars include Selma Blair, Jordin Sparks, Trevor Donovan and Jessie James Decker to name a few.
We can’t wait to see what happens next — and what Carrie Ann decides to step out in.
