Dylan Efron reacts to Derek Hough’s hilarious Tyler Cameron flub on ‘DWTS’ — and all the viral TikToks

Dylan Efron loved the unexpected shoutout he received when “Dancing With the Stars” judge Derek Hough accidentally mixed him and Tyler Cameron up. Hough made a major flub on-air last week when he called the “Bachelorette” alum “Dylan” while complementing him, which fans immediately started trolling the pro dancer for. Efron tells Page Six that he was actually backstage with Season 34 winner Robert Irwin during the funny mix-up and said that people in the room immediately noticed it. “It was funny, but I didn’t think it would turn into, like. I wasn’t sure if anyone else noticed,” Efron tells us. “Like, I’m more sensitive to it since it’s my name. But then immediately I saw Tyler and was like, “Hey, we need to go give Derek s–t.” Dylan Efron tells Page Six that he thought “Dancing With the Stars” judge Derek Hough mixing him up withTyler Cameron on-air last week was funny.

Hough also got in on the fun, posting a video of him hilariously calling “DWTS” cast members by the wrong name backstage — including mixing Efron and Cameron up again — and sharing their reaction. “I’d be lying if I didn’t like the shoutout,” Efron cracks. Efron says being back in the ballroom after being a “DWTS” contestant felt like a high school reunion — but also gave him flashbacks. Cameron was also a good sport about the flub.

Efron placed fourth on last season’s “DWTS.” He says that his partner Daniella Karagach’s new Season 35 partner, paralympian gold medalist Ezra Frech, doesn’t need any advice from him. “I had to fight my way from the bottom, I feel like — I think he’s already feeling like a finalist and potential winner,” he notes. Efron says Cameron’s fiancée, Tate Madden, came up with the idea. Instagram/@tylerjcameron Hough also made fun of himself, posting a video of him mixing up Efron and Cameron again backstage. Instagram/@derekhough “He just seems like he has such a good head on his shoulders,” he adds. “He’s a competitor.” Efron is now promoting e.l.f. Hair’s “Never Thirsty” line, which includes a moisturizing shampoo that gently cleanses hair with a bright, fruity scent, and a conditioner that instantly detangles hair without weighing it down. The reality star says he’s since softened his famous stance that “people shower too much.” “I was coming from a place of, I would go camping for two weeks and not shower and be totally happy, and now I’m like, ‘Oh, there are cool products out there that actually improve your skin and makeyou glow,’ and so I think I’m more knowledgeable in that area now,” he explains.

So, yeah, I do use soap way more than I used to, and it’s helped my curls.” Community Guidelines Welcome to the Page Six Community!
