One of the most popular hosting icons on television nowadays, Tom Bergeron shared his successful journey as a host of Dancing with the Stars in an exclusive interview with BuddyTV.

While Bergerons successful career path appears to be well planned, he explained that what launched his career, as a TV host was purely accidental. Initially, Bergeron started working on a night radio show in New Hampshire, making phone calls to do comedy stories. Fortunately, his entertaining program captured the hearts of people working in a Boston NBC network affiliate. Eventually, he was invited to host a television morning show, which also led to Good Morning America and then Hollywood Squares. Over the years, the 52-year old TV personality had worked in different types of programs such as game shows, talk shows and reality shows. Surprisingly, what he considered most difficult was doing taped shows just like Americas Funniest Videos, which was fun to do but dealt with a lot of back referencing. Dancing with the Stars, compared to Americas Funniest Videos, was something he considered to be spontaneous with a clear purpose at the end of the program, which apparently was easier to do. And since he is no novice at the hosting field, he had also become an expert in juggling schedules and hosting gigs, which he greatly appreciates than not doing anything at all. As for his work on Dancing with the Stars, he was invited on the basis of his previous series of work for the network like Miss America and Daytime Emmys. At first, he had no idea what Dancing with the Stars was all about, but after watching a DVD, he loved it and immediately became ecstatic about the hosting gig. Theres no doubt that Bergeron contributed much to the success of Dancing with the Stars. Admittedly, he said that theres not just one factor that can be accounted for the programs sensation but in his opinion, the drama and watching celebrities out of their comfort zone was what made the show very entertaining.
