Dancing With The President: Ex-Prez Bill Clinton Tops Wish List For Season 18 Of ABC Show
March 3 2014, Published 6:48 a.m. ET
Bill Clinton is a wanted man - for Dancing With The Stars.
Show dancer Karina Smirnoff -- who won the thirteenth season with army veteran and soap opera star J. R. Martinez -- has revealed how she made a beeline for the former President at a charity event in Los Angeles over the Oscars weekend in a bid to convince the 42nd President of the United States, 67, to take to the dance floor.
And Smirnoff - who revealed she is a huge fan of the former leader of the USA - reckons he would take home the mirror ball trophy!
Although Clinton slow danced at a few state events, it is not know how his cha-cha-cha and foxtrot would look on live television.
Smirnoff also gave her backing to the announcement that Erin Andrews will replace current host Brooke Burke-Charvet in the next series.
Smirnoff, speaking exclusively, said: "I am going to walk over to Mr. Clinton and gonna ask him if he would ever consider doing Dancing With The Stars.
"I really hope he says yes, because I think if Bill Clinton does the show he will win it. He just doesn't have to dance. He could just stand there and we are all going to vote for him. Bill Clinton is amazing, he's got such a presence. Every time he walks into the room you are drawn to him."
Smirnoff feels that FOX host Andrews new appointment will work out well for the ABC show.

"We've had 17 incredible seasons and we are still one of the top shows on TV after 17 seasons," she said.
"Producers must really know what they're doing. Even if we question this decision or that decision... I am giving them the benefit of the doubt since they have an amazing track record."
