In a previous posting, Lindsay Arnold talked to Entertainment Tonight about how her Dancing With The Stars partner, Calvin Johnson, is going to surprise everyone. Entertainment Tonight posted another part of this interview where she talks on married life, doing Broadway, and bonding with her Calvin Johnson. Below she talks about their Cha Cha and what she is worried on a little. You can also view a camera blocking photo.
Arnold and Johnson are kicking off their first week on the DWTS stage with the cha-cha, but the blond beauty told ET she’s most excited to see the former Detroit Lines wide receiver impress the judges with a different style.
“We practiced a little bit of jive together and he LOVED it!” she exclaimed. “He was having so much fun, and loved how fast it was, which is so funny, because most people are like, ‘Oh, it’s fast? I don’t want to do it.’ He was like, ‘I love it, it’s so fun.'”
And although Arnold assured us Johnson is going to “surprise a lot of people” on Monday, Sept. 12, when the show premieres at 8 p.m. ET on ABC, she does have one worry — their height difference.
“It’s definitely not easy, it’s a challenge, but we’ll make it work,” she explained. “In order for him to reach me, it’s almost like he’ll have to drop his elbows a little bit. So I’m already looking into 4.5 inch ballroom heels, trying to find those and see if those are a real thing. If they are, I’m definitely going to wear those.”
