After setting the dance floors on fire with his hit “Trackin'”, at the very beginning of the 2000s, Billy Crawford made a notable return to France by participating in the show “Dancing with the Stars”. Headliner of season 12, the Filipino singer was able to see, moved, that his popularity in France was still intact. Taking advantage of this support and his undeniable dancing talents, Billy Crawford won the final and lifted the trophy of the TF1 show.
If he owes this victory to the public, it could never have been obtained without his partner in the adventure: Fauve Hautot. This is what the singer explained to us during his visit to the studios of Darling FM.
“Fauve pushed me from start to finish”
“It’s a ‘phew’ challenge. It was so difficult. We danced 8 hours, 10 hours a day for three months non-stop. I was broken everywhere. I won because of the public who voted but It was Fauve who pushed me. She’s so strong. She pushed me from start to finish, she didn’t stop.”
Moving from the floor to the jury chair, alongside Mel Charlot, Jean-Marc Généreux and, of course, Chris Marques, the four-time winner of the demanding dance show dazzled the spectators with Billy Crawford. There is no doubt that the duo will be delighted to meet again, Friday April 26, for the finale of the 13th season during which the “Trackin'” star will present the trophy. Something to bring back good memories. “It was huge for me,” comments the singer about his participation in DALS in 2022, stressing that he stayed in touch with “almost everyone”.
Recently, Billy Crawford shared a new song called “Oulala”, featuring DJ Honest. The singer will also reconnect with the French public, whom he loves so much, on the occasion of the “I Gotta Feeling” tour, which brings together several icons of the music scene of the 2000s, like Alizée, Priscilla or Worlds Apart and many others.
