'Dancing With the Stars' 2015 Cast: Kim Zolciak-Biermann 'Overwhelmed' But Positive After Shaky Premiere Night
Kim Zolciak-Biermann isn't giving up after receiving the lowest scores in the season premiere of ABC's Dancing With the Stars.
Are Bindi Irwin & Nick Carter This Season's 'Dancing With the Stars' Frontrunners?
Zolciak-Biermann's Salsa with Tony Dovolani in the season premiere of Dancing With the Stars was heavily criticized by the judges, who gave her a measly 12 out of 30. That means she was even below fellow low scoring older celebrities like Gary Busey, Paula Deen and Chaka Khan.
But despite her lackluster DWTS debut, the Real Housewives star isn't packing it in just yet.
Do You Think Gary Busey Or Someone Else Will Be The First 'DWTS' Celeb Eliminated?
"I am really proud of me. I put the time in," she said after the show. "To get out there on the dance floor is a lot. It's one thing to film a reality show, be yourself and get paid for it! It's a different thing to walk out on stage, in front of millions of viewers and shake your bum bum."
Zolciak-Biermann openly cried after she finished her performance, but not necessarily because she did poorly. The tears came due to her accomplishing a huge feat.
"I accomplished this!" she noted. "It's overwhelming for me. No matter how big my personality might be on television, I still have feelings."
Keeping an upbeat attitude, she quipped, "Where can I go from here? Only up!"
Unfortunately, it's possible that Zolciak-Biermann could be the first celeb eliminated, assuming she doesn't get enough votes from the public. Next week is a double elimination, so the reality star should be worried.
Dancing With the Stars airs next on Monday at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
