\tJennifer Lopez was nearly moved to tears after watching an 11-year-old Latina\u2019s performance during the premier or \u201cWorld of Dance\u201d on Tuesday. Diana Pombo was vying for a chance to compete in NBC\u2019s new dance competition show, produced by Lopez. The young girl from Miami gave an emotional and impressive performance to Sia\u2019s \u201cBird Set Free\u201d that seemed to take Lopez by surprise. Nearly as soon as Diana finished dancing, Lopez asked her about her background. The preteen responded that her parents are from Colombia. \u201cYes, you\u2019ve got that Latin fire, I can see it in you.\u201d \u201cWhen you took your foot and looked at me backwards and wiped your forehead with your foot and looked like your face was going to cry,\u201d Lopez continued, trying to piece together her thoughts. \u201cNo, it wasn\u2019t just all the flexibility you had. It wasn\u2019t all the strength you had. It was the passion that you put into every move.\u201d Fellow judges Ne-Yo and Derek Hough echoed Lopez\u2019s sentiments. After their comments, Diana told the singer and dancer that she was her idol, and Lopez stood up to give her a hug. Diana wrote in an Instagram caption on Wednesday, \u201cYou have given me a gift I will carry with me always!\u201d Diana passed through to the next round with a score of 89.7 from the three judges, which means the talented Colombian will get a chance to continue in the competition that gives the dancers an opportunity to win $1million. \t<\/p>\n
\tHosted by Step Up star Jenna Dewan Tatum and executive produced by Jennifer Lopez, the latest dance competition show premiered Tuesday on NBC and as expected, it was highly entertaining from beginning to end. Joined by Dancing With the Stars alum Derek Hough and singer\/dancer Neyo at the judges’ table with Lopez, chic in a bright red Valentino dress and matching lips, was all smiles while meeting the first round of contestants as she made her WOD debut. “There’s been dance shows, but we wanted to create the Olympics of dance,” the singer, who was formerly a judge on American Idol, explained. “This is the chance to say, ‘I am the best in the world.'” If you haven’t watched yet, brace yourself for lots of head spins, pirouettes, back flips, freezes, never-before-seen partner lifts and more, we’re talking the absolute BEST of the best, after all! \t<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
