Cheryl Burke is the cute little hoofer on Dancing with the Stars with the freckly face who looks like an adult version of Dora the Explorer. She’s as sweet and cute as a smiley cookie from Eat n’ Park, but life wasn’t always fox trotting and smiles for Cheryl. She has a new biography out called Dancing Lessons that’s about becoming a dancer. And getting molested. What? Via People:
Burke’s abuser was a retired mailman who was trusted and well liked in Burke’s Bay Area community. He would sometimes pick Burke up from school and do odd jobs around her home. The assaults began when she was 5.
“I felt guilty for wanting his love and affection,” she says, calling testifying against him “the hardest thing I’ve ever done … [but] If I can help just one person, for me that’s all that matters.”
My taste level might be a little wonky but I’m pretty sure child molestation falls under the heading of comedy killers. So let’s change gears. Hey, have you ever noticed how Aaron Eckhart stole Huey Lewis‘s face? Something to think about.
