Former So You Think You Can Dance<\/em> judge and dance legend Debbie Allen<\/strong> wrote on Instagram<\/a>, “Danny Tidwell, our beautiful dancing genius “Prince amongst Paupers” you are in God’s Ensemble. We will always speak your name with love and respect. See you on the other side. Love, Mama D.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
