May 29 Finale on E! Features Benefit for LGBTQ Suicide Prevention Group
We’ve seen them laugh, we’ve seen them cry and boy have we seen them dance! Now, as the season finale of THE DANCE SCENE approaches Team Boomkack is ready to go out with a bang. Be sure to tune- in on May 29th for the final episode of the premiere season of THE DANCE SCENE at 10:30 PM ET/PT following Khloe & Lamar on E!
The Dance Scene Star LaurieAnn is Passionate About Trevor Project's Mission to Save LGBTQ Lives
All season long viewers have seen the show’s star, Laurieann Gibson, and her team break a serious sweat with A-list artists and promising new talents. From music video shoots to fashion shows, and even across the pond to London, Team Boomkack has been giving their all to keep up with Laurieann’s demands.
In the final episode, the group has been asked to perform at a benefit for The Trevor Project, a charity organization that is dedicated to end suicide among LGBTQ youth by providing life-saving and life-affirming resources, including a nationwide, 24/7 crisis intervention lifeline, digital community and advocacy/educational programs that create a safe, supportive and positive environment for everyone.
Laurieann is extremely passionate about this organization and its mission, and this particular gig holds a special place in Kherington’s heart as she tearfully confesses that she lost her cousin to suicide the year before. As viewers can attest, Laurieann is always pushing Kherington to the brink because she believes in her potential and she uses this opportunity to encourage Kherington to connect with her emotions like never before and give the performance of her lifetime in honor of her cousin.

Can she balance their new public relationship, her crazy work schedule and, perhaps even children? Find out when the season finale of THE DANCE SCENE airs on May 29th on E!
