It’s a dance-off! After a three-year hiatus, MTV turns up the heat with the return of fan-favourite series AMERICA’S BEST DANCE CREW: ROAD TO THE VMAS this Wednesday, July 29 at 11 p.m. ET on MTV. Hosted by Jason Dundas (ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT), the panel of judges includes Broadway theatre actor Frankie Grande, hip-hop artist T-Pain, and recording artist Teyena Taylor. This season, six all-star dance crews create routines inspired by VMA-related challenges.
