Team Chericho, Petra & Dmitri, Wendy & Tony …
The first official partner photos have been released for Season 12 of Dancing with the Stars. Photographer Bob D’Amico worked his photo shoot magic and the images are stunning — as always.
Many of the celebs and their pro partners have been burning up not only the dance floor but their Twitter pages as well with some interesting trash talk.
Kirstie Alley, paired with Maksim Chmerkovskiy, joked: “My partner says I’m slow. He calls me Grandma — G for short! I call him M — for mean!”
What does the Fat Actress star hope to get out of this experience? She said emphatically: “I’ve lost 60 pounds, and I have 30 or 40 more to go. I think with this strenuous, rigorous dance schedule, it’s gonna work. It’s exciting.”
Playboy poser Kendra Wilkinson is already nerved up: “I’m worried about the Karate Kid, the wrestler and the boxer because it’s all about brainwork with dancing and they have it already. They’ve been choreographed before and I haven’t. I’m all about freestyle and shaking my butt! That’s all I’ve got!”
Who is Kendra most worried about? Without hesitation she said: “I think Kirstie Alley wins the popularity vote; she has the most fans.”
Cheryl Burke and Chris Jericho, aka Team Chericho, ‘tweeted’ a sexy photo of their own — with a not-so-subtle message to their competitors.
