'Dance:' Top 10 guy has a Schwimmer connection

Last year’s “Dance” competition had lots of family ties: There was Lacey Schwimmer (Season 2 winner Benji’s little sister) and Danny Tidwell (Season 2 runner-up Travis Wall’s adopted brother) and Faina Savich (Season 2 finalist Stanislav’s sister).
As far as I know, there aren’t any siblings of ex-contestants this time around—perhaps the show was a wee bit worried about nepotism charges?
But there is a Schwimmer connection to one Top 10 guy, though he’s not a blood brother.
E!’s Kristin dos Santos ferreted out the truth—and a few more “Dance” tidbits—from newbie Jamie Bayard. He was Lacey’s swing dance partner for four years, and the couple won the U.S. championship TWICE.
Jamie’s official FOX bio mentions the prize part, but not the Lacey match-up.
Maybe we’ll hear more on that tonight when the Top 20 perform for the first time!
And hooray, Kristin also reports that the first group dance will be to a number choreographed by Wade Robson!
Since he wasn’t anywhere in the audition episodes, I was worried we wouldn’t see the Ramalama Bang Bang king back on the show this season.
Dance on, team!
