Get ready, Dancing With the Stars fans! Season 34 is officially back on ABC, and Candace Cameron Bure is already making her pick for who she wants to see take home the Mirrorball trophy. However, it should come as no surprise that Bure, herself a DWTS alum from Season 18, is cheering on none other than her fellow ’90s TV star Danielle Fishel. Yes, Topanga from Boy Meets World is hitting the ballroom, dancing with pro Pasha Pashkov, and Bure is here for it.
“I mean, how could I NOT root for my fellow ’90s TV alum Danielle Fishel?! Go Topanga!” Candace Cameron Bure told Showbiz Cheat Sheet. “She’s gonna kill it. You just know those fabulous hair moves are going to steal the dance floor. If you don’t see me in the ballroom, I’ll be the loud one clapping from my couch.” Can we get a witness? Between Bure’s enthusiasm and the nostalgia factor alone, Danielle already has a fan in one of DWTS’ most beloved contestants.
Candace Cameron Bure Is Rooting For Danielle Fishel
Candace knows exactly what it takes to make it to the finals. She tore up the dance floor back in 2014 with partner Mark Ballas, ultimately finishing third behind Olympic ice dancer Meryl Davis and Maksim Chmerkovskiy, who took home the crown, and snowboarder Amy Purdy with Derek Hough, who placed second. With her own experience navigating the pressures of the ballroom, Bure clearly recognizes raw potential when she sees it – and Danielle’s energy, charisma, and TV star charm have Bure’s full support.
Meanwhile, Fishel herself is feeling confident about this season. On Good Morning America, she shared how much she’s already learned from her professional partner, Pashkov. “I’ve already just adopted so much of it,” she said. “He is the best teacher. I’m just like a sponge and I want to learn from everybody here.” With that kind of attitude and a strong mentor at her side, it seems like Danielle could be a serious contender for the Mirrorball trophy, and Bure couldn’t be more excited to watch her journey unfold.
Two Contestants Have Already Been Eliminated From Dancing With The Stars Season 34
Whether Fishel will match or even surpass Bure’s own DWTS performance is still up in the air, but fans are in for some serious ’90s nostalgia mixed with jaw-dropping dance moves. Of course, we’ll all be glued to our TVs, Bure promises she’ll be cheering from the sidelines or, more realistically, from her couch at home, making all the noise necessary to support Topanga’s big return to the spotlight.
Dancing With the Stars Season 34 is in full swing. Sadly, Corey Feldman and Baron Davis have already been eliminated, but Danielle Fishel is tearing it up, like Candace Cameron Bure predicted.
