So You Think You Can Dance alum Joshua Allen has reportedly died aged 36. A cause of death wasn’t immediately available, though a family member told TMZ Allen died September 30. The publication later reported that Allen was struck and killed by a train in Fort Worth, Texas and died at a nearby hospital. The Independent has reached out to the Fort Worth Police Department for additional information. Allen won season four of the Fox reality dance competition series in 2008, with the late Stephen “tWitch” Boss, who died in December 2022, placing second. The dancer spoke about how close he was to Boss while they were filming the show, telling Entertainment Weekly in 2008 that they were “really happy for each other” despite only one being able to win. He also spoke about what his dance experience looked like before appearing on the show. “I took a few modern dance classes, ballet classes, because I felt that to be a better dancer I would have to take different classes, and, you know, expand my horizons in the art of dance,” Allen told Entertainment Weekly.
