This season of Dancing With The Stars is just a two-step away! And let me tell you, it’s got people already talking. The cast this year is rather interesting and I’m already intrigued. I cannot wait to tune into the official kick off come Monday night. You got your dancing shoes on?

One contestant in particular who has got America in a tizzy is transgendered and transformed Chaz Bono. Surprisingly so, during a candid interview with the ever-so funny Ellen DeGeneres, mama Cher phoned in, surrounding the highly controversial buzz by fans of DWTS and this is what she had to say regarding the latest criticism:

“If you got that excess time and that amount of hostility, I’m not so sure that I can say anything to you that would make you change your feelings. I don’t know that I would have any magic words to make you feel more comfortable and to soothe you into not being terrified of my child dancing on Dancing With the F-cking Stars.”

Don’t be scarrred, you just may be in for a rude awakening. However, if there anything that Bono fears, it’s the quickstep. Even though he seems to be pretty confident despite all the negativity, he may just dance right off with a serious case of WINNING, you never know!

Chaz and his dance partner Lacey Schwimmer will shake up the dance floor with their first dance the Cha Cha, lucky for you, you CAN judge a contestant by their dance moves. Do you think he can shake what his mama gave him? You decide.

Be sure to watch the Season Premiere of DWTS Monday Sept 19th 8/7c with the Results Show following Tuesday Sept 20th 8/7c on ABC. Watch a clip from The Ellen DeGeneres Show below and voice your opinions in the comment section.
