Erin Andrews, 'Dancing With The Stars' Partner Talk Strategy (VIDEO)

Erin Andrews recently joined 'Dancing with the Stars' for the show's upcoming season, where she will compete against Chad Ochocinco (who now has two shows) and Evan Lysacek, among other contestants. She is clearly taking the competition seriously.

In an interview, the ESPN reporter says signing up for the show was a "big decision." She expects the stakes to be high. "It's going to be a lot of pressure. I am pretty tough on college coaches and college athletes, give them a hard time about things. So if I do not do a good job on the show I'm going to be getting text messages left and right.... It could be disastrous."

While Andrews says she's trying, she is worried about her "turnout... and I have bow legs."

Andrews recently signed up for Twitter, where she posted pictures of a bruise and a blister from her dancing practices.

Ms. Andrews was quick to shriek foul play when those naked photos leaked of her, but she hasn't hesitated to use it to increase her own star profile. More sextapes to come.......

How exactly has she used the pictures to her advantage?

Wow. You attack a woman for being upset about peep hole videos being taken of her with no knowledge or consent, and then blast her for going on a TV show to increase her popularity. Great Job. No, really, keep up with that line of thought and see how far it gets you.

You're one step above tr0lling right here, and not far from it.

Try again.

Oh my gawd, the poor girl is going to get text messages. Do you know how to turn off that text makin mo-sheen?

BTW -- you've got a LOT more than bow legs, I've seen "the video!" Old-fashioned girl, pube-wise.

Geez you get naked photos taken of you and suddenly you are a star.

[CaseyAKO]

06:53 PM on 03/14/2010

No, you work hard and build a reputation as a credible sports reporter who is also incredibly attractive, and then you are a star. Notice I didn't say "suddenly you're a star", because she worked incredibly hard to be taken seriously and to get where she is now.

Quit hatin'.

.........she wouldn't have been selected if not for the notoriety she gained from that whole Peeping Tom incident.

She's attractive and she's talented; but come on now, she's not THAT talented.

If Erin Andrews' appearance is unsatisfactory, there is no hope for our species.
