Kate Gosselin 'Lifts Off' for the 'DWTS' Finale
Reality TV mom Kate Gosselin gets one more chance to strut her stuff on the "Dancing with the Stars" dance floor in the season's finale on Tuesday, May 25.
"I'm spending a lot more time socializing and laughing, to be honest," Gosselin told "Extra" when asked how rehearsals are going. "You know the real competitors are really working hard so they lock their doors," she continues. "I don't like that because I can't socialize!"
Her dance partner Tony Dovolani hints that Gosselin is really going to fly -- perhaps literally -- telling "Extra" at the Maxim Hot 100 party, "There's gonna be a liftoff! I think Buzz is waiting for her. I think Buzz has surpassed the moon now and he's waiting for Kate."
Gosselin remains diplomatic on who's going to win the competition. "They've all worked equally hard. They all deserve it. So if I was in charge -- I would let them all win."
But former 'DWTS' dancer Julianne Hough doesn't mind predicting, even betting against her brother, Derek Hough, who is partnered with Nicole Scherzinger. Julianne picks Olympic skater Evan Lysacek as the favorite. "He took the gold home for us, you know what I'm saying. I think people love him already!"
