What's up guys? Lovely Robbins here for Young Hollywood in the ballroom at Dancing with the Stars. It is the season premiere and I am taking you behind the scenes with the entire cast.

Two Emmy Award winners right here. Okay, Mr. Backstreet Boy, you don't have an edge over the entire ballroom now. Okay, first of all, you captured America's heart when we learned about you just what, a mere month ago in the news, came from YouTube. Now you're here on Dancing with the Stars, triple crown winner. I see a mirror ball trophy in your future as well. You killed it on the dance floor, but now that you're next to me, I want you to sing for me.

Oh, thank you, Lovely. I appreciate that.

Miss Paula Deen, what an honor. What are you cooking this season? Oh, you must be having a ball out there.

I am. It's more fun than you can imagine.

No, I mean it. Sing for me.

No, no, honey, I'm good. I could have another, but I probably should not. I got somebody at home.

I have you a guilt-free, flourless, chocolate cake. So what? How's it feel to dance together? You holding your Emmy's while you're doing it?

It it's it's amazing. I mean, Dek, he has just flips the world. He's taken the world by storm. We are so excited to be a part of this and and to be doing it with my wife. It's an incredible journey.

Riding American Pharoah versus Dancing with green dancing with the Stars. Big difference. I can control American Pharoah. And I cannot control this partner. He's she's out of control.

Give it to me, baby. Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me. And also in the eyes. Hey, Young me. This from like. Shoulders down. Okay? Team name. What's your team name?

Team Takedown.

He has and so it's so.

Team Aspino. Aspinoza, as in our Aspino. Charle.

Team Ky.

Brown Sugar.

Buttercup.

Team Buttercup.

Takes down terrorists and now he's gonna take down the competition. So.

So like, you gotta slice sometimes, you know.

Need I say more? Don't even ask, but come on, right? Ky just means Oh my gosh, fantastic. Or it means like, oh no. It means everything. So team everything. Team Ky.

Well, crazy might be one word to describe rehearsals, possibly. We have some crazy rehearsals. Crazy good, crazy funny, crazy hard, like we have a good mixture going on. We have a lot of fun together and he works so hard so I'm able to really like grill him when I need to. So it's been great.

We have a five-hour rehearsal. In my head what that means is like three of them are gonna be really fun and two of them are gonna be super tense and hard. That's about right. That's where it lands. So it's like there's levels, like a relationship. You know what I mean? You're taking on a relationship and we're gonna have some fun times, but we're gonna have some hard times.

I call him Nicholas when he makes me happy.

And how often is that?

A lot. A lot of the time at the moment. A lot of the time. He impresses me every day. We've only had four days rehearsal together, so I guess that's like that's a very short amount of time. Rehearsals is probably one of the funnest things I've ever been a part of.

Is he lying?

I have What did you say? The what? Is one of the most fun. I gotta correct my grammar there.

Oh, that's good. I'm glad you said that. Because I mean we have limited time, so we move pretty fast. We don't take too many breaks at all. Like water breaks. Honestly, the first day, Tuesday, it was awesome. I had a lot of fun. And after that, we like just shocking, you know, like two balls that like room in there. And that was not And that was the moment we wanted to kill him.

Yeah. She I mean she's a great, she's great with criticism. And she's so positive and like nice about everything like she still teaches me everything I need to know, obviously. Well go in the studio, I could be tired, I can not feel I could feel like, you know, and I just see your face, it's like it's like wiped clean and ready to go. It's always fun. My gosh, it's never dull. It's never like, oh no. Never like that. It's always, yeah. Let's do it some more. But we move pretty fast. We don't take any breaks. Yeah, at all. She doesn't give me any breaks.

I'm sorry.

So what dance are you most looking forward to? It's one that maybe you don't know or one that you kinda know.

I'm looking forward to to the jive.

I'm super excited for contemporary.

Yeah. You?

Yeah, I'm super excited for contemporary.

Carlos has got a really like cool way of moving. He's like actually really natural at contemporary. So, I'm super Don't give it a kid. He wants to do a hip-hop and I think he would be really good at hip-hop. I think hip-hop, jive, and then what was another one? I think contemporary because, you know, it contemporary you can make into like a hip-hop like get that groove going.

I am most looking forward to and most fearing the jive, which is next week. Because it's really hard but it looks like so much fun. And some of the moves that she taught me were like super bad-ass.

He really wants to do the Argentine Tango. Like he's been dying to get So I think We got we got a we got a song picked out for it already. Oh. But I'm not gonna say what it is. I'm like, Alex, you're spitting it. Or what week. But we really want to do an Argentine Tango and I think that would be our team takedown dance. It's gonna be it's gonna be fun.

I played the song, we do Rumba, and it's a favorite dance. So I can't wait for next week.

Oh, it's so slow and so uh, sensuous. Or it can be if you know how to dance. So we'll see if mine's sensuous or not.

I I think he's actually gonna surprise people with his ballroom dancers. He's like in frame. She's ready for the foxtrot. I'm ready. I'm ready for that foxtrot. I want to show people this different side to Nick that's a little more old Hollywood, a little bit more Gene Kelly.

At the whipping in.

Yeah, well, yeah. It's literally just like a modified version of the whip. It's just the It's like Yeah, exactly. Exactly. You got. You know you're gonna probably put that in every dance. You're gonna be tangoing with the whip.

You're excited? His eyes are like I'm legitimately excited for it. It's gonna be great. Working with a finalist here who's one of the best. What fears do you have out there? This you're born to be on the stage.

Thankfully, I've performed on some amazing stages and a lot of in front of a lot of people over the years. But this one for some reason it just scared the crap out of me.

It's so surreal like being able to go out on stage and dance with a professional dancer like. Hello. It's just the most incredible time of my life. It's life changing because the the the inspiration from the audience, from everyone around. I'm having a blast working through this and and really like learning how to get better at something. You know, a lot of things are going really well in my life, so to come in and get kicked in the ego for like five hours has been a great thing.

I mean, my whole world turned upside down. It's just been a whole new experience every day's different news. We're having a lot of fun just with the words that are coming out of our mouths because I came up off stage and he said it to his dancers like, your lines were sick, bro. You got all these cameras on you, you have all these people surrounding you. It's like you're in the Thunderdome. It's a competition, but you know behind the scenes we're a big family and we're trying our best to take everyone with us on this journey.
