Milo Manheim Thought Having A Little Bit of Dance Experience Would Help Him With DWTS

Milo Manheim is learning just how tough it is training for Dancing With the Stars with partner Witney Carson.

During their solo appearance on GMA on Tuesday (September 11), the Zombies star revealed that it was much tougher than he realized.

“When I first walked in I thought having a little bit of dance experience would help me,” Milo shared. “I have a little bit of rhythm but once we started getting going, it was nothing like I ever imagined … it’s so much more difficult than I thought it would be.”

He adds, “I’ll feel like I’m doing a good job and look back at the video and I just look terrible.”

However, Witney has faith in him to pick up the choreography quick.

“I feel like Milo has a lot of potential and I’m really excited,” she says. “He’s got the personality, he’s got some rhythm so that’s all we really need.”

Milo also shared what it was like having Witney, who won the mirrored ball in season 19, as a partner.

“She looks like she’s so much fun — like we’re having a blast the whole time. She is tough,” he admits. “If I mess up, she will make sure I never mess up ever again.”

Dancing With the Stars premieres Monday, September 24th on ABC.
