Back in June, Inaba took to Instagram to commemorate the 20th anniversary of her role as a judge on the hit ABC series.
“20 years ago today, I sat down for the first time with two men I had never met before.
Len Goodman and @brunotonioliofficial. My life was forever changed.✨🙏,” she wrote alongside a video montage of some of her past moments on the show.
“It’s been an incredible journey of self discovery and a wonderful experience witnessing the unique intersection of dance and human nature, competition and shared experience, artistry and vulnerability. There has been nothing like it in my life,” the former “Talk” co-host added.
“I greatly appreciate having a ‘seat at the table’ (as they say) to share my thoughts, my truths, and my own personal experience to help shape the experience of others towards dance.”
