Tom Bergeron was once synonymous with the fan-favourite reality show, Dancing with the Stars. Since his exit as host in 2020, many have taken over his responsibilities, but no one has ever been able to truly take his place. Now, Tom has returned to the show’s 34th season as a guest judge this week. Amid his appearance, people are curious to know why he was dropped as the host after DWTS season 28. Here’s the reason why Tom Bergeron was fired from Dancing with the Stars.
Tom Bergeron was fired from DWTS over politics?
Tom Bergeron had hosted Dancing with the Stars from its first season in 2005 to season 28 in 2019. The host was asked his opinion by a showmaker and the showmaker’s boss, both of whom have never been named by him, about the direction the series should take in the summer of 2019. Since the show would be broadcast right before the 2020 presidential elections, he had asked them to stay away from politicians. Tom had advised them that they should be people’s respite for two hours from the politics happening around them.
