Save a pommel horse (Lace up your dancing shoes).
Olympic bronze medalist Stephen Nedoroscik is officially set to compete on season 33 of Dancing with the Stars.
“I want to bring some of that gymnastics—maybe a backflip or handstand,” Stephen shared on Good Morning America Aug. 22 after the news was unveiled. “I want to have fun with it.”
The Olympian emphasized that he is “very excited,” for the upcoming competition. As for whether he’ll dance with his signature eyewear?
“I’m scared they’ll fly off,” the 25-year-old admitted. “Maybe we could do a gadget, keep them on. Maybe a new pair of glasses, match the theme, right?”
And Stephen’s casting for the popular ballroom dance show, which premieres on Sept. 17 at 8 p.m. ET, comes after weeks of fan speculation that the athlete would be joining.
As one eager fan wrote on X, formerly Twitter, earlier this month, “Stephen Nedoroscik, Dancing With The Stars Season 33 CHAMPION—MARK IT DOWN.”
