Leah’s incredible ability to not let out much more than a “Damn you!” did not escape co-host Tom Bergeron.

The actress – whose blistering expose of the religion is due to air later this week – was presenting on Dancing With The Stars for its special Halloween episode when she was the victim of a prank. While talking to Tamar Braxton and partner Val Chmerkovskiy, Shasha Farber came from behind in a clown’s mask to scare her. She was frightened and stumbled on the floor. Actually, she recovered fairly well for such a fall, and somehow managed to not immediately start chasing after pro Sasha Farber, who appeared to be in the clown mask.
The “King of Queens” star and former Scientologist has been filling in for Erin Andrews while she covers the Major League Baseball playoffs. Remini seemed proud of this, too, as she yelled, “I didn’t curse! I’m so impressed with her”.
Things took a spooky turn on Season 21 of “Dancing With the Stars” as the hit ABC series celebrated Halloween on Monday night. On Monday, Farber told Fox 411 that producers put him up to the gag and that he didn’t mean to scare Remini so badly. The actress was so scared after the ambush that she dropped to the ground and fell right on her face. Sasha also mentioned, “She could have punched me. That might not sound great”, she wrote. I’m surprised she didn’t say any bad words. “I would love to have more of her”.

Though this happened on live TV, Sasha and Remini have no hard feelings for each other.
