Ann Romney was offered a spot on Dancing With the Stars this season, and seriously considered doing it, but eventually passed, according to reports.
The woman who would've been First Lady of the United States in 2013 actually appeared on last season's finale and gushed that she was a big, big fan.
Ann Romney and producers had several meetings to try to hash out the details of her appearing this spring, but Ann ultimately decided against it.
In a somewhat surprising ending to the final Dancing With the Stars results show of the season, reality star Melissa Rycroft was named the winner Tuesday night.
Rycroft, who finished third in 2009's Season 8, edged out Olympic gymnast Shawn Johnson, who many thought would become a two-time DWTS champion.
“My mind went blank for a minute,” Melissa Rycroft told reporters after the show as to what she was thinking when host Tom Bergeron announced her as the winner.
“When we were standing there with Shawn and Derek (Hough) I assumed it’d be them. After I realized it was our names, I said, ‘Oh, my God! How did this just happen?’”
Melissa Rycroft. Shawn Johnson. Kelly Monaco.
