Rachael Ray: Rachael's Daytime Talkshow

"My Man Won't Dance"

  • Share:

When Justine danced with her husband Daryl at their wedding 10 years ago, little did she know that it would be the last time she would get him on the dance floor! Daryl thinks that his refusal to dance is actually doing his wife a favor. "I don't want to embarrass her," he says. Justine admits that Daryl looks like "a stick that wiggles" when he tries to bust a move, but says it would mean the world to her if he took her out on the dance floor for their 10th anniversary. "It would just bring a sparkle to my eyes, and it would feel like we were teenagers again when we got married!" she says.

Rach's buddy Colby explains that Daryl is like many other men who feel safer sitting on the sidelines. "Anytime you put us into a position where we're not comfortable or we feel vulnerable, it's so intimidating" he says. "And it's all ego-based fear." Colby suggests that the boogie-phobic men treat their issue like a bad golf game by practicing and taking some lessons. So he enlists the help of choreographer Jean Marc Généreaux from So You Think You Can Dance? to teach this old dog some new tricks.

Justine is shocked at her man's new moves. "Wow, he actually moved his hips!" she exclaims. And now that Daryl isn't afraid to strut his stuff, Rachael gives the couple tickets to the So You Think You Can Dance Tour so they can get a few ideas for their anniversary dance!
