Looking good! Bachelorette alum Kaitlyn Bristowe and Selling Sunset star Chrishell Stause showed off their hard-earned dancer bodies at Dancing With the Stars rehearsals on Tuesday, September 8.
Instead of their usual workout gear, the reality starlets rocked dressy clothes for their day on set. Kaitlyn, 35, took a walk on the wild side in a cheetah-print skirt and a black backless bodysuit. Chrishell, 39, looked pretty in pink while wearing a knee-length dress with a high slit.
The A-list realtor explained on her Instagram Story that the cast was doing a “press junket” via Zoom before practicing with their partners, who will be revealed during the season premiere on Monday, September 14.
Fans are eagerly looking forward to the first week in the ballroom — and so are the competitors. “I can’t put into words how much fun I am having/how much I am pushing myself to do something I never thought I could!” Chrishell divulged via Instagram on September 5. “Life is short — Say YES even if it terrifies you! I hope you guys vote for me on September 14th [because] I want to be around to play in the sequins [and] glitter for a long time, hopefully.”
Kaitlyn shared the sentiment on her own social media. “Feet are sore but loving every second of it,” the season 11 star gushed. “This is all starting to feel very real! My goal — to entertain you all on the dance floor starting September 14th on [DWTS].”
That’s not to say stepping into the public eye again wasn’t difficult. “I forgot how mean people are when you go on TV,” the Bachelor Nation star captioned a teary-eyed photo on her Instagram Story on September 5. “Just so many ‘she looks so old and plastic’ comments everywhere. You win today trolls. It got to me.”
The Canadian beauty talked about the emotional moment later on her Instagram Story. “I had a good cry, didn’t somehow ruin my eyeliner,” she explained in a video. “I think I honestly am just so tired that anything will set me off right now. Plus, I’m PMSing so great combo. I felt my feelings, I got it out.”
She added, “Sometimes I like to be honest on here about not always be ‘woo happy.’ I had a weak moment, cried it out, felt it all. Now, I’m going to pour myself a glass of wine and remember what’s important in life.”
Both starlets look like they’re doing amazing at the moment and are ready to hit the dance floor. Keep scrolling to see the latest photos from the Dancing With the Stars set!
