Priscilla Presley Gets Ready to Put On Her 'Dancing' Shoes

 

ET's KEVIN FRAZIER goes one-on-one with PRISCILLA PRESLEY to find out how her rehearsals for the upcoming season of "Dancing with the Stars" are going. Priscilla, who at 62 is the oldest female to ever compete, talks to Kevin about the difficulties -- and joys -- of the competition. She is partnered with LOUIS VAN AMSTEL, who last danced with LISA RINNA, and has been choreographing the "Dancing with the Stars" tour.

Kevin caught up with the Southern beauty at the Fedex Forum at the U of M vs. Tennessee game, where she had courtside seats.

"I have been a fan of the show since the beginning," Priscilla tells Kevin. "I got the letter from my agent three weeks ago and it was, 'No, I don't want to.' And then I said, 'Wait a minute. It's fun. It's family oriented and all ages watch the show.'"

But before she agreed to put on her dancing shoes, Priscilla called last season's contestant JANE SEYMOUR to get her take. Jane, of course, told her she had a great time, so Priscilla said yes -- and then hired a trainer to work on her stamina. We'll see if it pays off when "Dancing with the Stars" premieres on Monday, March 17 at 8 p.m. on ABC.
