Zendaya Makes a Confession About Her “Very Stressful Experience” on ‘Dancing With the Stars’
Danica McKellar is glad to have her dance shoes off.
A decade after The Wonder Years alum took the stage on Dancing with the Stars season 18, she shared insight into why competing on the series wasn’t all that glamorous.
“It’s much harder than they show in the packages because it would bum people out to see how stressful it is,” Danica explained to Cheryl Burke on the Nov. 17 episode of her podcast Sex, Lies and Spray Tans. “It just wouldn’t be as fun anymore for people.”
“That kind of intense training, I had never had before ever, nothing even close to that,” she continued. “You’re feeling completely unprepared. Now you’re going to go dance in front of 20 million people. Now you’re wearing a dress and everything feels different.”
For the Winter Palace star—who was eliminated in week eight with her partner Val Chmerkovskiy—the transition from different dances was jarring, like going from the foxtrot to samba.
