‘So You Think You Can Dance’s Joshua Allen Killed by Train, Family Says
‘SYTYCD’ Season 4 Winner
Joshua Allen Struck and Killed by Train
Published
Joshua Allen — the winner of “So You Think You Can Dance” Season 4 — was struck and killed by a train, a family member tells TMZ.
TMZ broke the news of his death earlier this morning.
We’re told Joshua died in a hospital near his Texas home Tuesday.
The Fort Worth Police Department in Texas tells TMZ they got a call on Tuesday for a person who was struck by a train. It is an ongoing investigation.
The family source remembers Joshua as a man of integrity and as a family man, always wanting to see everyone come together under one roof for holidays and family functions.
They also give TMZ insight into their final conversations, noting … “One of the last things he said was to keep God first at all times. You have to be real with yourself before you can be real with anybody else.”
Meanwhile, Joshua’s close friend Emmanuel Hurd told TMZ earlier Wednesday morning he was “a very honest, real person.”
As you know, Joshua rose to fame in 2008 when he competed on the 4th season of ‘SYTYCD’. He won the season, with the late Stephen “tWitch” Boss coming in 2nd place.
He continued dancing over the years, and starred in 2010’s “Step Up 3D” and 2011’s “Footloose” remake … plus appeared in a 2011 episode of “American Horror Story.”
He got into some trouble in 2016 when he was charged with domestic violence, and ended up in the slammer for a year in 2017.
Joshua was 36 years old.
RIP

Fancy a night of cutting loose and cracking up? Funny you should ask — ’cause TMZ just threw its first-ever comedy crawl … and it was an absolute hoot.
Catch the clip for nonstop laughs — our rolling comedy party was hosted by Brittany Schmitt and Mateen Stewart, who kept the jokes coming all night as the TMZ party bus ferried everyone to three of L.A.’s hottest comedy spots.
The crawl kicked off at the Hollywood Improv, then rolled over to the Laugh Factory … where things seriously leveled up with a VIP view of Dane Cook’s set.
The final stop was the Comedy Store and its buzzing outdoor patio … where guests knocked back free shots and raised a group toast to celebrate the first-ever “TMZ Comedy Crawl.”
As one last surprise, passengers scored free tickets to future shows at the Hollywood Improv and Laugh Factory — plus a discounted Comedy Store ticket … ending the night on a total high note.

So yeah — if you want in on the laughs, grab your tickets now!
Karol G and Feid have officially gone their separate ways after 3 years … TMZ has learned.
Sources close to both artists tell TMZ … the Latin music superstars quietly ended their relationship a few months ago amid ongoing speculation. We’re told the breakup was amicable, and the two remain on good terms.
Karol and Feid were first linked after collaborating on the hit song “FRIKI” and being spotted together multiple times starting around 2021 … fueling rumors long before anything was officially confirmed that they were dating.
In 2023, Karol confirmed the relationship in interviews — calling it a positive and supportive chapter in her life — and the two were seen attending events together, sharing subtle social media moments, and supporting each other on tour.
We reached out to reps for both artists … so far, no word back.
