Cancer Survivor
Carson has been very open about her skin cancer diagnosis, which came when she was a teenager. She found a mole on her foot, which turned out to be cancerous, and was able to have it removed before she would’ve needed chemotherapy.

Reality Competitor
Before she became a pro on Dancing With the Stars, Carson was actually a competitor on So You Think You Can Dance. She was on Season 9 of the show and made it all the way to top 6 before she was eliminated.

Emmy Nominated
Carson is not only a phenomenal performer, but she is also a great choreographer! In fact, she was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Choreography thanks to a dance she created for herself and her partner, Alfonso Ribeiro.
