She may not have won the big prize, but Kim Kardashian was definitely a breakout figure on the last season of Dancing With Stars. The beauty spoke to RadarOnline.com about her predictions for the new group of shimmying stars and how being on the show affected her dance confidence.
Who do you think might win?
There are three that I think are really good. I think Shawn Johnson is so amazing. There’s something about those Olympians that they have that drive and determination. Of course she’s with my partner Mark who I think is amazing. Then I thought Gilles Marini was amazing. Cheryl was amazing and I thought they looked hot together. And then I think of Steve-O. He could be someone that really surprises everyone. And the Dallas Cowboys cheerleader The Bachelor’s Melissa Rycroft is also pretty good.
Did being on the show make you want to dance more? Do you dance more now?
It completely killed my confidence for dancing. Now I will never dance. I thought Holly Madison was really good but she was really nervous, and I thought, “oh my God, that’s just what I was like.” I realized that I don’t like performing. Performing is really tough for me.
Are you going to attend any tapings?
Of course! I wish I would have gone to the first one, but I was in the Caribbean on vacation. I’m out of town again working for the next one, but I definitely want to go.
If you had to pick the final winners, who would they be?
I’m gonna give it up to Mark and Shawn Johnson.
What about someone who won’t last long?
I would say Steve Wozniak, the Apple guy. I think he’s not gonna make it too far.
Did you make a special point to catch the season premiere?
I knew that it was going to be on so I definitely kind of made my dinner plans around the premiere so I could watch. I was so excited the hotel had it.
