Ginnifer Goodwin's Footwork Gets a Second Chance: Is She Ready to Hit the Dance Floor on 'DWTS'?
Actress Ginnifer Goodwin, star of Disney's Zootopia 2, may have just traded in her acting shoes for dance partner Alfonso Ribeiro. In a recent appearance on the 40th Anniversary Disney Parks Magical Christmas Day Parade, Goodwin showed off her moves alongside Ribeiro and choreographer Mandy Moore.
The spark that ignited Goodwin's interest in dance was sparked during this taping. "That was a little bit of fun," she revealed when asked if she'd be interested in joining the upcoming season of Dancing with the Stars (DWTS). Her initial reluctance to trade in her sneakers for heels is telling, but it seems she's willing to take a chance.
Ribeiro played matchmaker, suggesting he and Goodwin would "jam" on the dance floor together. He even offered some advice on how to get her into his partner-holding style - namely, holding onto him tightly! The chemistry between Ribeiro and Goodwin was undeniable, leaving fans wondering if they'll be joining forces on DWTS.
Goodwin even confessed she has a "choreographer crush" on Moore, whose work on Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, Dancing with the Stars, and La La Land has impressed her. Could this spark lead to a partnership between Goodwin and Moore on DWTS?
For now, fans will have to wait until Christmas morning to see Goodwin's dance routine from the Magical Christmas Day Parade, airing at 10:00 a.m. EST / 9:00 a.m. CST / 5:00 a.m. MST / 5:00 a.m. PST on ABC. Will she take Ribeiro up on his offer and join the DWTS lineup? Only time will tell.

! She's been showing off those moves on Disney events and now it's time to take it to the next level 
! Having Alfonso Ribeiro as a partner is already a win – they seem like such great chemistry 
. And can we talk about how fabulous Mandy Moore looks? 
I'm kinda low-key excited about Ginnifer Goodwin joining DWTS, but also super uncertain if she'll be able to pull off the whole dance thing 
. She's got some cute moves with Alfonso Ribeiro, but we don't know what kind of prep she's had for this level of competition 
That'd be a major plus 
. Can't wait to see what happens, but don't hold my breath just yet 
. Maybe they're just playing us, setting us up for a sweet, juicy reality TV drama 
. I've got my eye on this one...
. It sounds like they're setting her up for something. And what's the real motive behind Ribeiro suggesting they join DWTS together? Is he trying to manipulate her or what? 
I don't know, man... it just feels too convenient. Maybe there's more to this story than meets the eye 
.
He's always been a pro when it comes to dance, and if he thinks Goodwin has what it takes, I trust him 
. Let's just hope she doesn't get too nervous on the show... I remember watching DWTS with my family back in the day (Back in my day...) and we all loved it 
. Can't wait to see Goodwin's routine this Christmas morning! 
...I mean, those pros are pros for a reason 
. She'd need some serious practice and training to impress me 
. And omg, that choreographer crush on Mandy Moore is EVERYTHING 
! Can you imagine them dancing together? 
She's already got that spark with Alfonso Ribeiro, and can you imagine her dancing with Mandy Moore 
?!? The chemistry between them is real! 
i'm so here for this!!!
! my only hope for her is that she'll take it easy and not be too hard on herself, 'cause dancing can be tough, especially if you're new to it 
What if she doesn't end up on DWTS? Will that be a failure or just a detour that led to something even more exciting? 
, I'm low-key rooting for Ginnifer Goodwin 
! She seems like a total sweetpea 
who's willing to take a chance on her dancing skills 
. I'd love to see her work with Mandy Moore 
. And Alfonso Ribeiro, he's already got some serious moves, like that Carlton dance from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air lol. But seriously, has she even practiced in front of a mirror? I'm sure it'll be cringeworthy on DWTS 
. And what's with the choreographer crush? Mandy Moore's gotta be thinking, "Uh, no thanks, Ginnifer's gonna trip over her own feet." 
This is all just a publicity stunt, imo...
! I'd love to see Goodwin and Moore team up on DWTS 
! Can't wait for Christmas morning to see what she'll be dancing to 
. Ginnifer Goodwin thinks she can just waltz onto Dancing with the Stars because of one cute dance routine with Alfonso Ribeiro? Please, we've seen more convincing performances on a Disney Channel original movie 
. She needs to bring her A-game if she wants to impress the judges and the audience. And what's with this "choreographer crush" thing? Moore is talented, don't get me wrong, but Goodwin should focus on perfecting her own moves before trying to impress someone else
