LIMP BIZKIT drummer John Otto and his 11-year-old daughter Ava Otto are contestants on the CBS reality dance show “Come Dance With Me”.
According to CBS, the show “features exceptionally talented young dancers from across the country who invite one untrained family member who has supported their dance dreams to be their partner for a chance to strut their stuff for a grand prize.”
Judges of the competition include actress and dancer Jenna Dewan; professional celebrity dancer Dexter Mayfield; and renowned hip-hop choreographer Tricia Miranda.
Throughout the season, each pair will learn and perform different styles of dance, from hip hop and ballroom to contemporary and theatrical, among others, all for a $100,000 top prize.
Ava Otto is already an established dancer having achieved numerous prizes and scholarships throughout the industry. She is also known for her acting and model experience and serving as an outspoken voice against bullying.
Speaking to Celebrity Page about the “Come Dance With Me” experience, Ava said: “I was a bit on the bossy side. I like having control. It was very nice.” John added: “I just [tried to] keep it one foot in front of the other and just worried about not trying to embarrass her, let alone embarrass myself — I already embarrassed myself.” Ava countered: “You were great, you didn’t embarrass me. I am so thankful for anyone who is supporting us. It was a big step for the both of us so it’s really great knowing that people are supporting us from everywhere.”
