Mahak Hamid to Appear on Dancing with Myself
“Catch me on Dancing With Myself this Tuesday July 19th 10/9c on @nbc!” Mahak wrote on Instagram this week, alongside three photos showing her on the set of the show. In one shot, she appears with fellow TikToker Destiny Williams.
Mahak also gave a shoutout to the “11 other incredible people” who will be appearing on Tuesday night’s episode, which is the season finale. She added, “hi guys i miss you.”
Dancing With Myself is inspired by TikTok dance trends, so it makes sense that some creators from the platform are among this season’s competitors. Other popular TikTokers who appeared this season include Zack Lugo and Keara Wilson.
The premise of the show is that each dancer (many of them amateurs) learns the same dance routine from one of the celebrity judges, and they perform it in separate pods, adding their own flair.
