“With ‘Dancing With the Stars’ people fall in love with your story,” Shumpert said to the New York Post. “They fall in love with you as a person, as an individual. I think ‘Dancing With the Stars’ has done a tremendous job of promoting me as a father and husband, and that’s one of the most relatable things in the world. The fame is more personal in this regard.”
