In a recent interview with Cinetelerevue, he talked about his participation in the world famous celebrity dance competition format and also teased new music for his fans.

It has been very good! It’s been two weeks we started at a steady pace. Schedules are impeccable because they allow me both to concentrate on Dancing with the Stars and work on my new album.

His dance partner Denitsa also took notes from his recent Eurovision participation and had this to say in his favour.

I checked out his video and admired his pirouettes at Eurovision. I was impressed! Then I met him at a concert in Charleroi, Loïc is even better live, it gave me chills. He has a powerful voice and moves incredibly well.

Belgium has won the Eurovision Song Contest on only 1 occasion with Sandra Kim and J’aime la vie in 1986. The came close when they placed 2nd in 2003 with Urban Trad and Sanomi.
