DWTS Tony Dovolani And Suzanne Somers Talk With Access Hollywood Live

Suzanne Somers had so much fun last night on Dancing With The Stars and she was in her Zen place. More below with Tony Dovolani and Access Hollywood Live. She looks so fantastic….

ETA: Suzanne has posted a new blog at People too. Be sure to read the link for as she talks on her costume too and how much she loved it.

I am an entertainer who dances, not a trained dancer. When I am in the middle of a dance line of 30-40 in Vegas and I blow a step or two, I go into Lucy, like Lucy Ricardo during the famous challenge routine dance that Ricky created when she wanted to be on his show. Not so on DWTS. If I miss a step, I’m history. Bye everybody!

I pride myself on being a pro. I was in a Zen space last night. I was calm, relaxed and ready. When I went out there, I went out to have fun, and I did. I laughed through the whole thing. Performances are natural for me. I am used to being in front of big crowds. The hardest part of this whole first week were the first two days. I had to adopt a sense of humility and realize that I was essentially in kindergarten learning a whole new language.

I didn’t pay much attention to the score. I was happy with their comments and walked away from the whole thing feeling great. I want all the women my age to see these performances as aspirational – that it’s not about your age, it’s about your energy. I have youthful energy and superb health because of the way I have been taking care of myself all of which is represented in every one of my 25 books.
