Pamela says this will keep her out of trouble, which we will see if it actually happens. Pamela Anderson says she has always wanted to learn how to dance and is doing this for her mother and her 85-year old great-aunt Vie, who loves to dance and has the “best legs”.

“This is a leap of faith,” she says. “I’ll learn a life skill. I’m a romantic. I’m putting my heart into this." She finds it stimulating mentally, physically and emotionally and has her total focus.

  Her partner will be, ‘Burn the Floor’ cast member Damian Whitewood, who is new to the U.S. show, but has appeared on the same show in Australia and Holland. He has made an appearance on ‘So You Think You Can Dance’ as well.

Pamela Anderson’s pal and fashion designer Richie Rich was in on the decision days before it was announced. He states, "She's one of my best friends. She's starting rehearsals this week. She's totally stoked and excited. She probably has the best legs I've ever seen on anybody that walks. I know she's taking a lot of different lessons. She's very on point. She's like a showgirl at heart. I can only imagine how amazing she's going to be."

Rich goes on to state,  "Pam's funny, 'cause she's, like, tongue-in-cheek and she jokes, 'I don't know how to dance!' She's so great on point. She's a great spinner. I was an ice skater, so we always joke and dance around. I don't think she's really nervous. I think she's just excited."

The only advice he's given Pamela Anderson is to win. "I just told her to keep her eye on the prize. I don't really have to tell her much, 'cause she's so focused on doing it right," he said, adding that he'll be stopping by the show to cheer her on. "I think Pam's gonna win. I think she's gonna go for the gold. She puts her mind to something, and she does an amazing job. She's a blonde. She should win."

Richie says he will definitely design something for Pamela Anderson and it will be outrageous and Vegas-style. He finds her easy to dress but also states there will be a lot of skin showing because she doesn’t like wearing clothes.

Like I said it will be fun and interesting.
