The Real Dirty Dancing finalist Cat Cora experienced a big first during Tuesday night’s finale episode. She and partner Corbin Bleu worked together to recreate an emotional scene from the 1987 movie. Cat revealed that it was the first time she’s kissed a man.
‘The Real Dirty Dancing’s Cat Cora, Corbin Bleu Share a Kiss
This week’s finale came down to Cat and Corbin, against their competitors Anjelah Johnson-Reyes and Tyler Cameron. Before they recreated the movie’s iconic final dance, the couples were challenged to act out the goodbye scene between main couple Baby and Johnny.
First up was Cat and Corbin, dressed in outfits inspired by those worn by Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze in the movie. They said their emotional goodbye and then shared a sweet kiss on the lips before Cat watched Corbin drive off in a car inspired by Johnny’s.
“That’s the first time I’ve kissed a man,” Cat shared after the scene was finished.
Cat revealed during last week’s show that she came out as gay to her parents when she was 19 years old. However, she’s totally embraced dancing with a man during the show, and she and Corbin have formed a strong bond as partners.

The Couples Cheer Each Other On
Even though they’re competing for the title of “Baby” and “Johnny,” the final two couples have been supportive of each other. Anjelah and Tyler applauded Cat and Corbin’s emotional performance.
When Anjelah and Tyler performed their version of the scene, they switched it up by having Anjelah get into the car as Baby instead of Tyler as Johnny. Cat and Corbin laughed as Tyler chased after the car.
Still, just because they all get along doesn’t mean they don’t want to finish the competition on top. Cat said she and Corbin were “going at it to win.”
