Kellie Pickler seems to have contracted a case of dance fever. The 'American Idol' alum tells OK! magazine that she'd like to compete on a different reality show: the hit ABC series, 'Dancing with the Stars.' According to the magazine, Pickler confided her ambition in former 'Dancing' pro -- and fellow rising country star -- Julianne Hough, telling her, "I thought it would be fun." Although Kellie says she can "go to the clubs and shake it," she's not as confident in her ability to master the more technical aspects of dancing. "It would be a challenge for me to learn the technique," she admits.
Whether she ultimately signs on to be a contestant, Kellie has no plans to abandon her music career.
"It's only a couple months. It's not like you're signing on for the rest of your life," she says. "I will always be part of country music for as long as the country music family will have me."

Love her!!!! What a doll she is. Her humor is refreshing, as long as she's not acting too dumb.

Good for Kellie. I never understood the animosity toward her on Idol and these vitriolic detractors
since then. She is having a decent career in country
music and has a bubbly personality.
You go Kellie. I hope you have continued success and
your "non-fans" can go whistle up a Smokey Mountain stump!!!!

It will be GREAT if Kellie gets to dance on Dancing With The Stars! She is such a sweet gal, very friendly and bubbly. I love her CD and I'm not surprised that she is doing so well as a country star!!!!!

Her presence on the show certainly wouldn't hurt ratings. She's a hoot.

Next she can hook up with Nicole Ritchie or Paris Hilton and be the "other" half of that old reality show. Then maybe she can do an episode of the Tila Tequila "reality" show, and when she is finally as down and out as they can get.....Donald Trumps Celebrity Apprentice. Perfect waste of oxygen.

Kellie would be so much fun on Dancing With the Stars!!! She's an awesome singer; let's see her try her hand at dancing. I'll bet she'll do great.

Ppl don't like KELLY PICKLER because she acts fake & stupider than stupid. She plays the typical dumb blonde. But how much dumber can dumber get? WHO KNOWS IF SHE IS REALLY LIKE THAT OR IF SHE DOES IT FOR THE CAMERAS FOR ATTENTION. IT IS ANNOYING. BUT NONE OF THAT MATTERS. AS LONG AS SHE WANTS TO TRY DANSCING W/ THE STARS....LET HER DO IT. MAYBE WE WILL GET TO KNOW HER MORE. THE STARS CHARACTERS REALLY COME OUT WEEK AFTER WEEK. MAYBE THAT'S WHY SHE WANTS TO DO IT TOO....FOR THE PUBLICITY TO SPARK HER CAREER. NOT THAT SHE'S DOING POORLY. GOOD LUCK TO HER IN ALL HER ENDEAVORS. MARISSA WAS MY FAVORITE JUST FOR THE SIMPLE FACT THAT SHE TRIED SO HARD & WAS ALWAYS UPBEAT & HAPPY. SHE WAS TRULY SWEET! SHE ALWAYS MADE MY NIGHT A HAPPIER ONE.

Somebody already extended her undeserved 15 minutes and now she wants us DWTS fans to be forced to watch her AGAIN on network TV...??? Can't they send her on a world tour of men's prisons instead??? PLEASE???

Kellie Pickler is dumber than a box of rocks and is an embarassment to the rest of womankind because of her "dumb blonde" stupidity.
