It’s been ten years since Chris Marques has been providing his valuable advice and scathing his virulent criticism in “Dancing with the Stars”. The former salsa champion has simply been on the jury bench since the start of the show in France.
But if the success is undeniable for this artist with amazing hairstyles and eccentric looks, things have not always been so easy for him. In an interview he gave us, Chris Marques returned to his delicate beginnings, forcing him to exercise various trades of all kinds. “Strangely, when I look back, there are still good times. I had the ardor of my 18 years, that of chasing my dreams. I accumulated jobs, for example cleaning the toilets of a fast food restaurant “, he recalled.
The dancer suffering from a rare disease, fybromalgia, added that he was forced to sleep on the street. “But it’s true that in the first eight months of my life in England, I sometimes slept rough. Not every night, but sometimes. The insecurity is physical at such times. You are afraid of what may happen. Now that I earn a good living, the real luxury is being able to shelter my family. It’s not having money that drives me, but being safe“, he assured.
