Every man will, at some point in his life, get an erection at the wrong time or in the wrong place. I don’t mean on his arm at 3pm in the afternoon either. They can strike anytime, anyplace – even when you’re on television in front of millions of people.
This seems to be exactly what happened to the unfortunate Mark Ballas, who performed The Lindy Hop on Dancing With The Stars last night. His parter, Shawn Johnson, is an attractive 17-year-old girl. The inevitable happened.
There is some debate as to whether Mark Ballas did actually get an erection or whether it’s just the way his shorts bunched. he best way to decide is to watch the video for yourself. The offending erection seems to occur after the dance is over and the pair are being talked about by the judges.
I don’t think there’s any other explanation other than the fact Ballas got a little overexcited dancing with Johnson, and came over a little… erm, hard. It happens to the best of us, but not usually in such public surroundings.
