INSIDE EDITION reports from backstage at Dancing With the Stars where drama unfolded over reports that Jaleel White went into a verbal tirade at his dancing partner Kym Johnson.
Drama on Dancing with the Stars as Jaleel White reportedly explodes at his partner Kym Johnson.
People.com reports that the feud began during rehearsals when White—who played nerdy Urkel on Family Matters—stepped on Johnson's foot, and yelled at her when he thought she overreacted to the pain.
"Jaleel was definitely out of line," a source told People, "He was just stressed out and ready to snap."
The argument got so intense that NFL star Donald Driver and pro dancer Mark Ballas had to intervene. After his dance White broke down in tears.
"I just wanted to complete this week," said White.
When INSIDE EDITION caught up with White and Johnson backstage they told us the story was blown out of proportion.
"The tabloids have too much fun with this show," said White.
"This competition is very, very stressful, but we have a great connection and we're great, we're great friends," said Johnson.
And since it was Salsa Night, Cuban heartthrob William Levy was in his element.
His partner Cheryl Burke tore off his shirt. And, as you can imagine, the crowd went wild.
