Kelly Osbourne is terrified of her DWTS debut

Hope you missed Dancing With The Stars. In this case you must be super excited about the new celebrity contestants to show off their dancing skills during the new season of the popular show that kicks off on September 21, 2009.

The list of 16 contestants has just arrived and some of the names do sound promising.

Fist of all, Kelly Osbourne will be there dancing for you!

Kelly is 24 but she’s already tried herself in singing, acting, musicals, hosting radio and TV shows and Djing.

According to the reality TV star, she’s terribly bad in dancing, so she’s simply terrified of the upcoming experience:

I am so excited, but I cannot tell you how terrified I am,” Kelly said on Ryan Seacrest’s KIIS-FM radio show. “Dancing is something that I’ve always really wanted to be able to do, but never had the confidence and the technique, if you know what I mean. I’m not very graceful, so it’s just something that absolutely terrifies me, and it’s the main reason that I kind of wanted to do it. I wanted to do something different. I wanted to do something that scared me, and I don’t think anything could scare me more.

One of the reasons Osbourne joined the project is that dancing can get her body “sick but toned.”

At DWTS Kelly will have to compete with:

Joanna Krupa, Polish-born actress, supermodel and covergirl

Aaron Carter, a triple platinum selling music artist/songwriter, producer, actor and younger brother of Backstreet Boys singer Nick Carter
