What a horrible year for Ryan Lochte!
On Monday, after the disgraced Olympian performed his routine with Cheryl Burke on the premiere of Dancing With The Stars, two men stormed the stage just as judge Carrie Ann Inaba was giving her critique. Luckily, they were tackled by security before anything serious occurred.

Afterward, Burke was seen crying, and Lochte was visibly shaken. According to fellow contestant Jana Kramer:
“Ryan was backstage and close to tears. Everyone makes mistakes and I really hope America gets to see the guy we are all getting to know, which is a really, really nice guy.”
Even though this incident totally ruined the premiere of DWTS, we’re just glad no one was hurt!
