00:00Derek Hough sets the record straight after Ryan Seacrest's jumping claims on Celebrity Wheel of Fortune.
00:06Derek Hough isn't holding back as he responded to Ryan Seacrest's recent claims about his antics on the set of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune.
00:14I would never disrespect a set like that, however awesome that would have been, Hough said in an Instagram story on October 22nd.
00:21In a USA Today interview, Seacrest, 50, accused Hough of jumping on the wheel and spinning like the top of a cake ornament during his September 26th appearance with Dancing with the Star personalities Jenna Johnson and Bruno Tonioli.
00:37Derek Hough, 40, was quick to reject Seacrest's assertions.
00:41By the way, this is 1000% not true, he wrote, sharing a screenshot of Seacrest's claims on his Instagram page.
00:49Seacrest claimed Hough was all over the place during his time on set.
00:52In the commercial break, Hough was jumping on the center of the wheel and having Bruno spin it, Seacrest said.
00:59We did say, please don't do that, that would break it and there's only one of those wheels. If that breaks, we have a real problem.
01:05Hough responded with humor, clarifying, I would never disrespect a set like that, however awesome that would have been, to be spun around it like a cake ornament, haha.
01:14Hough won the episode, earning $63,350 for Feeding America and celebrated by jumping on the podium without harming the wheel.
01:25Hough and Seacrest share history, as he dated Hough's sister Julianne from 2010 to 2013.
01:32She's now a Dancing with the Star's co-host with Alfonso Ribeiro.
01:36Knowing someone or being friends is definitely helpful, Ryan told USA Today about his experience with Derek on the show.
01:44You can kind of tease them more than somebody you don't know.
01:47Ryan became host of Wheel of Fortune and its celebrity spinoff in September 2024, after Pat Sajak's retirement, with Vanna White remaining co-host.
