Media personality Veronica Verho was announced as the new co-host of the Finnish television program ‘Tanssii tähtien kanssa’ (Dancing with the Stars) alongside Ernest Lawson. Her appointment followed the departure of former host Vappu Pimiä, though the delay in announcing the replacement drew criticism from those who felt the network prioritized the presenter’s identity over the competition itself.

On September 6, 2026, Verho made her debut during the premiere of the 19th season. During the live broadcast, she participated in a surprise dance number with the star teachers. Verho expressed relief and happiness following the performance, noting the difficulty of keeping her new role a secret prior to the launch.
