“I really want to win this show,” says Lee. “It’s expressing yourself, even more, when you are dancing, because you've kind of been locked up a little bit in gymnastics. Dancing is super fun.”
Both Siwa and Lee will do a sit-down interview on Good Morning America on Friday to speak further on their participation in the show.
Tyra Bank will be returning to host the show this upcoming season along with veteran judges Len Goodman, Bruno Tonioli, Derek Hough , and Carrie Ann Inaba.
The very highly anticipated show will premiere on Sept. 20.
