Drew Lachey Dancing With Brokeback Mountain Joke Censored


Drew Lachey is indeed the champion of ABC's Dancing With the Stars, but the dancing king had one of his ad-lib moments censored last week on Thursday night.

The handsome young star made a pretty funny joke about Oscar favorite 'Brokeback Mountain' during the show.

“Dancing With the Stars” fans on the West Coast didn’t get to see an off-color gag by eventual show winner Drew Lachey last week.

On the last show before Sunday's finale, Judge Bruno Tonioli joked to Lachey that a certain dance number could make him the star of “Brokeback Mountain: The Musical.” Lachey responded by grabbing a cowboy hat and covering his behind with it.

The gesture made it on the air on the East Coast, but apparently was cut from the West Coast feeds, where viewers hear Tonioli’s quip, but saw the audience’s response instead of Lachey’s.

A rep for the show — when asked if the gag was edited out — responded merely: “We’re not commenting on that.”
