Bobby Bones Defends John Stamos After Actor's Controversial 'DWTS' Comments

Bobby Bones has defended John Stamos after the actor made comments about Dancing With the Stars that some found controversial. During an appearance on Bones' podcast "The BobbyCast," Stamos claimed he has been asked to participate in "every single season" but has refused, stating, "I'm never gonna do that show" and adding that "what makes that show good is people suffering and looking like fools." Bones wrote on Instagram that Stamos was "clearly kidding" and that the exchange was "playful banter, not shade." This is not the first time Stamos has declined the show, having tweeted in 2010 that he was "flattered to be asked" but "not a dancer." The article also notes that the debate over who should appear on Dancing With the Stars is ongoing, with pro dancer Val Chmerkovskiy previously telling Us Weekly he would prefer fewer politicians on the show, describing it as a program that "creates union and brings people together."
