Stephen “tWitch” Boss’ wife released an emotional statement Wednesday after the beloved dancer and resident DJ on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” died at the age of 40.
Boss is survived by Holker and their three children, Zaia, 3, Maddox, 6, and Weslie, 14.
In 2008, Boss first two-stepped onto the national stage while competing on Season 4 of"So You Think You Can Dance." He was a runner up and became a frequent presence of the show, later served as an All Star and team captain on multiple seasons. Boss started DJing for"The Ellen DeGeneres Show" in 2014. He eventually became a co-executive producer and frequent guest-host.
He told"Entertainment Tonight" earlier this year that he was having a hard time preparing to say goodbye to the show after it was announced that DeGeneres would be ending the daytime talk series at the end of the 19th season. "I think the closer that it's getting to the end, naturally, as we do, you start to miss it and you start to soak in all of the little moments where you go, 'Well, maybe I'm not quite ready to say goodbye just yet,'" he said.
