According to TMZ, Dancing with the Stars finalist, Janel Parrish has WAY too much on her plate right now, between shooting her TV series, Pretty Little Liars, and rehearsing for next week’s all important DWTS finale performances with her partner, Val Chmerkovskiy.
Janel Parrish is pulling double duty on “Pretty Little Liars” AND “Dancing with the Stars” — and TMZ has learned she’s spread herself so thin, she’s alienated castmates on both shows.
DWTS sources tell us … Janel’s pro dance partner, Val Chmerkovskiy is freaking out … because she’s missed two days of critical dance rehearsals due to long days of filming on PLL.
We’re told … Val believes he and Janel have a real shot at winning the trophy — the finals are Monday and Tuesday — but thinks her PLL schedule is sabotaging their chances.
Also, according to TMZ, NONE of the PLL castmates have been in the audience to cheer her on. That’ FREE TV FACETIME PEOPLE! I remember when Glee star, Amber Riley competed a few seasons ago. Nearly all of her castmates sat in the audience…at least once! Some made the trip TWICE.
As for Janel’s “Pretty Little Liars” co-stars … we’re told Lucy Hale and others in the cast have been conspicuously absent from the DWTS set the entire season … and have given her little to no support — even when she danced to the PLL theme song.
TMZ tends to exaggerate these reports, but maybe there really is no love lost between Janel and her Pretty Little Liars…
The Dancing with the Stars 4 hour finale airs in TWO parts, on Monday, November 22 at 8/7c PM and Tuesday 9/7c PM. (For you DWTS fanatics, there’s a clip show at 8/7c PM if you’re really into it!) We’ll be live blogging the competition right here.
