ON THE BEAT

-

Like mother, like daughter! Although Jenna Dewan didn’t push her 8-year-old, Everly, to follow in her dancing footsteps, the little one eventually got there on her own. “We’ve always had this joke that coming from two dance parents, she just had no interest at all,” says the Step Up alum, 41, referencin­g her ex-husband, Channing Tatum. That is, until recently: Dewan tells Us that Everly decided to take up Irish dancing on her own accord. “She was like, ‘Oh, my gosh, I want to do that,’” shares the Come Dance With Me judge. “She is so serious about it. She wants to do things in her own unique way. It’s so cool.” As for Dewan and fiancé Steve Kazee’s son, Callum, the 2-year-old already has “a bit of an inclinatio­n for rhythm and music,” just like his Tony award-winning dad. “He has a little swag, a little bounce,” adds Dewan. “So we’ll see. I’m very big on not pushing [my interests] on my kids.”
