Although she had been advised to keep her appearance under wraps until her role on Dancing With the Stars was confirmed, Holly Madison has let the cat out of the bag and her Girls Next Door co-star Bridget Marquardt has revealed that Holly will indeed be on the hit ABC reality show.
“I’m so excited for her,” Bridget said. “She’s wanted to do it for so long, it just never worked with her schedule and Hef was always like, ‘I don’t want you to do that,’ and now it’s her time, so I’m really happy for her.”
Holly will be replacing singer Jewel, who revealed that tendonitis in her knee could force her to not compete. The first episode of Dancing With the Stars airs Monday, March 9th.
Although Bridget will surely make an appearance in the audience to root for her GND co-star, don’t expect Holly to bring a man along for moral support. After splitting with magician Criss Angel last week, Holly insisted, “I’m never dating anybody again.”
It’s been an exciting year for Holly so far. Check out our gallery of how Holly got from one of Hef’s seven girlfriends to competing on Dancing With the Stars. [Photo: Getty Images]
