Cheryl Burke Says Sharing Sobriety With Fans Has Been ‘Scary’

WATCH – ALL THE RIGHT STEPS –

Sept. 20, 2021 – In the video Burke posted Monday morning, Burke drove while she spoke to the camera about how doing the show sober was “scary for her,” and that while she could easily go on and on about how excited she was to be back, she wanted to be “real” with fans about how she was feeling before hitting the dance floor.

“I’m Nervous for DWTS…,” Burked admitted. “Confession time – this may be my 24th time doing #dwts, and even though I’m SO excited, I also have major nerves.”

Preparing to perform on Dancing With the Stars sober presented its own set of challenges for Burke who said it made her realize her “every insecurity.’

“Doing this show sober has really made me realize my every insecurity and the amount of pressure I put on myself, which is tough. Just wanted to be honest with you all because I know sometimes it can look like this stuff is easy for us, but that wouldn’t be real,” she shared. Despite the flurry of nerves and pre-show pressure, Burke still shared lots of excitement and hope for the night, and thanked fans for their support and votes for her and partner, famed Peloton instructor, Cody Rigsby.
