After you watch this video of the Ballas Hough Band performing on "Dancing with the Stars," you might think bad, and you wouldn't be thinking of Michael Jackson's song. The singing isn't great but the dancing is.

Mark Ballas and Derek Hough have proven that they can choreograph and coach well enough to get an amateur ballroom dancer to the mirrorball trophy. As singers, they still have a lot to prove, but perhaps we'll see them someday on Broadway, singing and dancing. Not so far fetched when you consider Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Karina Smirnoff have already been on Broadway dancing. Kym Johnson and Chmerkovskiy will be on Broadway after this season of "Dancing with the Stars" wraps up.

If not Broadway, Los Angeles and Las Vegas have plenty of opportunities for singers who dance and even dancers who sing.
