Nick Lachey Teases On Dancing To A 98 Degrees Song On DWTS And More
In a new interview with US Weekly, Nick Lachey teases on dancing to a 98 Degrees dance number on Dancing With the Stars Season 25. His wife Vanessa also chimes in with her thoughts about doing the show. Here’s more….
The ‘90s pop-star revealed that he and pro-partner Peta Murgatroyd may perform a dance number to a song from Lachey’s hit band, 98 Degrees! “You gotta pull out every weapon you have. The 98 Degrees weapon might rear its ugly head,” the “What’s Left of Me” songster, 43, told Us at Planet Hollywood in New York City on Wednesday, September 6. “I can’t believe a 98 Degrees song hasn’t been on the show already.”
The former boy band lead singer also explained that his experience in the spotlight has somewhat helped him prep for the gig. “I mean, I think performing experience definitely helps when you’re trying to play a crowd. But at the end of the day, we didn’t really do much dancing to be honest with you. I don’t feel like I really have any leg up there. I’m coming into this eyes wide open,” he said. “I’m going to work my ass off. I got a great teacher and we’re just gonna go for it and see where it takes us. Obviously, we all wanna win. Coming into any competition, I want to win.”
Lacey also opened up about his competitive nature. “At the same time, I think the competition is really within yourself,” he continued. “You don’t ever want to look back and think, ‘I didn’t give it everything I could have given it.’ If i look back no matter what the result being if I get a MirrorBall Trophy or we don’t, if I can look back and say I worked my ass off, I gave it everything I had, what else can you do? The results will be what the results will be.”
The Charmed alum’s wife, Vanessa Lachey, will also be competing on the talent show, partnering up with Murgatroyd’s hubby, Maksim Chmerkovskiy. “I think the best case scenario is we all make it to the final and then the gloves come off and we get serious,”
I’m excited on these two dancing. To read more, see US Weekly.
Nick certainly has a positive attitude and a great outlook about his journey with Peta. He seems so much more mature than Carlos. Going to be interesting seeing Nick & Vanessa competing against each other. So excited for this season to begin the more I get to know these celebs.
We’ll, according to the recent People article, Maks is the one teaching Nick so far. Doesn’t look to me like there’s any competition between the married couples.
