Cheryl Burke nervous ahead of DWTS premiere

Cheryl went to Instagram to share a video message to fans on the day of the premiere. Season 30 of Dancing With the Stars premieres Monday night on ABC and Cheryl Burke is super excited to hit the dance floor. However, she also admits she has some nerves happening.

Cheryl captioned her video saying, “Confession time – this may be my 24th time doing #dwts, and even though I’m SO excited, I also have major nerves. Doing this show sober has really made me realize my every insecurity and the amount of pressure I put on myself, which is tough.” She continued, “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.”

The dance pro went on to say she really likes her partner and can’t wait for everyone to see. She also reminded fans to get their voting fingers ready.

Cheryl continued her thoughts in her video

Cheryle Burke went on to talk to fans in the actual video she posted. She said, “Of course, I’m nervous. Of course, I have my thoughts getting the best of me.” The pro continued, “I am nervous. I am feeling insecure, and I am scared.” She went on, “I want you to know, since being sober this has been really scary for me.” Cheryle continued, “This whole process — I am so clear headed. I am really, honestly grateful for this opportunity. But to say that I don’t have these insecurities, [or] my body dysmorphia [or] my feeling of wanting to throw up or finding the nearest exit [that] is definitely a lie.”

The two-time Mirrorball Trophy Winner went on to say that she puts so much pressure on herself. Cheryl said that pressure is just not realistic. She wants fans to know she’s human. Plus she once again reminded fans that she gets more nervous the older she gets.

Even with all the nerves, Cheryl is ready to dance tonight!
