I have no earthly idea. All I know is she said she’s going to be in DWTS and that Tony Dovolani is following her. Anyone have a scoop on this? Is she Miss Universe as well, as her twitter handle implies?
Maybe she’s going to be in one of the European versions of the show?
I'm a nerd and proud of it. Two degrees in geology also means I love BEER. :-) I'm also a Derek lover - proud of that too. So don't scream at those of us on this site and call us a bunch of "biased Derek-lovers" - it's just ME. :-) It may sound like I hate DWTS at times, but really, I'm just a snarky nitpicker from way back. And I'm cynical and jaded too. But I do love DWTS. :-)
Loved all these. I so agree about Jacoby because that man brought fun to the dance floor...
Wikipedia says: “Afërdita Dreshaj (born July 19, 1986) is an Albanian singer and model who was crowned Miss Universe Kosovo 2011 and represented the Republic of Kosovo in Miss Universe 2011.”
Miss Universe is actually Leila Lopes. She was at the Viennese Ball in NYC with Maks, Val and Tony.

Hehe… I should have said to scroll down to the pics to see her.
Sorry!!!!
She states it so blatantly “I’m going to be on DWTS this year.” That I kept looking to see if it was a joke or if it was a fake tweet or something. Hmmmm…
So what is “Miss Universe Kosovo” then?? Just that she represented Kosovo in the Miss Universe pageant?? And would the USA version of DWTS really go for Miss Kosovo??
If she really is, I can’t imagine her being paired with anyone BUT Tony. He can bust out his Albanian eagle applique
Wait…could she mean the Albanian version?

ummm what?
Hopefully she’s hot if she’s on. 
Yep she’s hot but she’s..wait for it…6 ft tall! Does she really mean American DWTS? Or isn’t there an Albanian DWTS?
Idk if I should take this seriously or not. If she indeed does hrte usa versio nthan I’m calling it now: she should just meet Tony now. If my gut is right, she is doing the show but not the USA version.
Ok so after thinking of “beauty queen” possibilites for the show I have two names (both for Tony): Miss USA 2010 Rima Fakih and Miss America 2011 Teresa Scanlan. Both are great choices and probably known by Americans. On a side note, Rima was on the WWE tough enough show so she might be annoying to see on another show but she is gorgeous.
No more beauty queens, por favor. I think it’s more likely that Aferdita is referring to the Albanian version of the show, which appears to have the same name as the US version. And I think the US version is kinda past having beauty queens as contestants – especially ones without huge, relevant titles. I think the only ones relevant enough for them would be the ones they could probably never get: the current Miss America & Miss USA.
Cool!! I hope it’s really happening! I can see Tony with her….or Maks or Val!
Does she mean the Albanian DWTS? and what is “Miss Kosovo Universe”?
Teresa, read the post few posts
I think Maks got her partner.

A) What makes you think this unknown with a capital U is talking about DWTS? She could blow her chance if she is, which I don’t buy;
B) What makes you think she got Maks as a partner??
If they have her on the show they are truly scraping the bottom of the barrel. She’s probably less well known than Elisabetta.
[...] Aferdita Dreshaj - Miss Kosovo said not long ago that she was dancing on DWTS – but was she talking about the Kosovo version of the show? Probably – which is why I stuck her in this category. [...]
