Bindi Irwin and Nick Carter talk about starring on 'Dancing with the Stars'
NEW YORK -- Bindi Irwin and Nick Carter took some time out from rehearsing to talk about how they are preparing for the big premiere of "Dancing with the Stars"!
Nick Carter of the "Backstreet Boys" says that although many think that he's going to go far due to his dance experience with the group, he's actually quite insecure about dancing on his own.
He's going to be dancing the Cha Cha on Monday night, and he says that his partner Sharna Burgess has been trying to make sure that he sticks true to form.
Actress and conservationist Bindi Irwin also had glowing things to say about her dance partner Derek Hough. Hough has won the Mirrorball Trophy an amazing FIVE times!
The bar is set high and although she's just 17 years old and a beginner, Bindi says that Derek has been very patient with her and she believes in herself.
The big premiere will take place this Monday, September 14 8/7c.
