Why is Jamie Lee Curtis in the Dancing with the Stars audience?

Jennifer Grey and Jamie Lee Curtis seem inseparable these days – at least in the land of Dancing with the Stars, with Jamie Lee Curtis sitting front row in the audience for the second week in a row to see pal Jennifer Grey.

But will Jamie Lee Curtis be supporting Jennifer Grey every week of Dancing with the Stars? And will her star power matter to the voting public?

Jamie Lee Curtis explains the Jennifer Grey connection to Access Hollywood: “I was in the Team Jennifer Grey, uh… like, pen. I’m hoping to be front row for Team Jennifer every week if I can. I’m going to try to.”

So don’t think you’ve seen the last of Jamie Lee Curtis and Jennifer Grey… maybe after Dancing with the Stars, they can star in their own buddy comedy!?

During Jennifer Grey’s Jive performance last night, Tom Bergeron made mention that Grey’s family was there to cheer her on – and the camera panned to Jamie Lee Curtis! Sounds like the Jennifer/Jamie connection is strong on DWTS!

What do you think of Jamie Lee Curtis’ support of Jennifer Grey?

I think it’s very generous of Jamie Lee Curtis to give from her schedule to support her ‘Team’ as she is…

I think it’s great to see one celebrity friend supporting another

Michele York commented on Sep 28 10 at 11:31 am

I noticed Jamie in the audience didn’t know if they were related or friends.

Julie commented on Sep 28 10 at 5:28 pm

Jennifer’s Husband and daughter were in the shot with JL Curtis. Didn’t know that J and JLC were friends, but it makes sense since they had a similar upbringing.

Mindy commented on Sep 28 10 at 7:08 pm

I think it is outstanding when one friend supports another and I am sure Jennifer will be there supporting Jamie now at the loss of her father.

Susan commented on Sep 30 10 at 4:35 pm

I think jennifer Grey IS Jamie Lee Curtis’s daughter….the resemblance is certaintly there !

Elena Bunce commented on Sep 30 10 at 4:54 pm

actually i thought the same. They certainly favor, i thought daughter or even sister?? a fan of both and they are beautiful people in my eyes.

margaret commented on Sep 30 10 at 9:08 pm

Jennifer is not Jamie’s daughter. Jamie lee curtis was born in 1952 and jennifer was born in 1960. That would make an 8 year old giving birth…….They are very good friends and that is why Jamie is called family.

I was told that Jennifer Grey is Joel Greys daughter. Will someone please let me know for sure?

Jemma commented on Oct 02 10 at 2:22 pm

I think its wonderful to see a Friend support a Friend!!

Jean Matricaria commented on Oct 03 10 at 9:42 am

Joel Grey, an incredible dancer himself, is Jennifer Greys father.

Donna commented on Oct 03 10 at 11:03 am

Jamie was born in 1958, not ’52. I heard Jennifer is 50? Wow. I also read in another forum that their families have been friends from way back.

Kelly commented on Oct 04 10 at 1:22 pm

Impossible they are only 2 years apart.

LARRY commented on Oct 05 10 at 4:42 pm

It’s shocking but true Larry! Jennifer Grey is 50. She is beautiful!

JENN commented on Oct 05 10 at 5:42 pm

@Jemma- She is Joel Grey’s daughter

Jessica commented on Oct 11 10 at 9:45 pm

Jennifer looks like Jamie Lee. They have the same eyes (sparkling), and their smile is very similar. I say Jamie Lee is her mother!

Fleurette Richer commented on Oct 11 10 at 10:14 pm

Would love to see Jamie Lee and Sarah Palin dance next year.Not together tho.

Teeva commented on Oct 11 10 at 10:14 pm

Jamie Lee was born in 1958…Jennifer in 1960. Jennifer’s parents are broadway and screen actor Joel Grey and mother, Jo Wilder who is also an actress.

Mary commented on Oct 12 10 at 12:35 pm

I thought they were related, but I guess not. It is good to see friends support each other even in Hollywood

Carmen commented on Oct 12 10 at 11:32 pm

Hey all you nuts that fell from the tree, DO THE MATH….These two are NOT mother and daughter!!!

Lisa commented on Oct 15 10 at 11:54 am

david cintron commented on Oct 18 10 at 9:50 pm

sherry commented on Oct 18 10 at 11:18 pm

How dumb! These two women are in their 50′s, Jamie being older than Jennifer, but how can anyone think Jamie is Jennifer’s mom? That is so dumb! They are just good friends and it’s nice to see Jamie watching her friend being a success!

Lotus Jani commented on Oct 20 10 at 12:41 pm

GAG!!!!!

lori commented on Oct 26 10 at 10:36 am

Why was melanie griffith was there too.

latinchuck commented on Oct 28 10 at 1:19 am

Jamie Lee Curtis is unable to have children…has been on talk show, etc. about the fact that she ‘adopts” her children…and has written a book for her children about how she got them.

Miss Ann commented on Oct 28 10 at 7:02 pm

I’ve been going thru a very difficult time in my life, but to see Jamie Lee Curtis supporting Jennifer Grey makes me so happy and believe in true friendship!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Magda Coppola commented on Nov 23 10 at 10:11 pm

Jamie Lee Curtis born 11/22/58 daughter of actors Janet Leigh/Tony Curtis; Melanie Griffith born 8/9/57 daughter actor Tippi Hedren; and Jennifer Grey born 3/26/60 daughter of actor/dancer Joel Grey are friends.
