Ricki Lake teased audiences back in July of this year about the possibility of being on the new season of “Dancing with the Stars” when host of the show Tom Bergeron visited the set of her new pilot for “The Ricki Lake Show”.

HOLLYWOOD JUNKET was in attendance and reported on the chat. Lake fessed-up to Bergeron about not really knowing how to dance and admitted to faking her way through steps while shooting the dance movie, “Hairspray”. Lake said, “When I was in ‘Hairspray’ I didn’t dance. It was all attitude”. Read the full story here: https://hollywoodjunket.com/2011/07/13/dancing-with-the-stars-visits-the-ricki-lake-show/
