Dancing with the Stars pros, past and present, gathered to honor Len Goodman, with the notable exceptions of Sharna Burgess and Cheryl Burke. Sharna’s man, Brian Austin Green, basically called out the show.

At the end of Season 31, former head judge Len retired from DWTS. Sadly, he passed away in April 2023. Married pros Jenna Johnson and Val Chmerkovskiy choreographed a beautiful waltz to Moon River. While many of the “OG” pros returned to dance, Sharna and Cheryl weren’t invited.

Brian shared his feelings about the snub. Entertainment Tonight has the details.

Brian took to Instagram in a since-deleted post. “I can’t begin to tell you how disappointed I was for @sharnaburgess to not be invited for the tribute last night. It’s disappointing as well that none of her ‘family in the ballroom’ stuck up for her or spoke out,” Brian wrote.

“She’s an incredible soul and has always been a friend to everyone. She deserved better,” he posted, along with the hashtag “#familystickstogether.”

“She wasn’t even invited to sit in the stands and watch. Shame on that group of people. Kindness is an action, and so is love- @cherylburke should have been there as well,” Brian wrote in the caption.

Additionally, Sharna clarified her feelings in her Instagram Story. “This hurt more than not being asked back and I’m working through it… Sharing feelings on here often gets met with a few negative people who believe I didn’t deserve to be there anyway,” Sharna wrote.

“Tears of celebration and joy and gratitude for how much Len did for ballroom and for all of our careers. The performance was perfect and classic and technically brilliant,” Sharna said of the tribute. “Val and Jenna created magic and Len absolutely would’ve loved it.”

Sharna also shared, “Remember 2 things can be true. I can love and support the show, feel joy for those who were there, and also feel sad about me not being there.”

Cheryl shared that she wasn’t invited before the show aired. I still don’t understand why Cheryl and Sharna were excluded. They could have just been in the audience, being part of that special moment.

Dancing with the Stars continues Tuesday nights on ABC and Disney+.
