ESPN's Erin Andrews Dancing With the Stars: Video, Performance Pics

Dancing With The Stars made its season debut last night. This year's cast includes faces from all of sports, pop, and culture. Chad Ochocinco led off the action last night, but many eyes were on ESPN sideline reporter Erin Andrews.

Andrews has remained somewhat in the background since the release of the embarrassing stalker video. However, EA got a chance to cut loose and shine on national television last night. How did she look? How well did she dance? Look inside for pictures and video of Andrews' first performance.

Andrews An Early Favorite

Andrews more than held her own with her partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy. Andrews finished with a score of 21, which tied her for third after the show's opening episode.

Here is a video of her performance:

Using Her Experience

Andrews didn't enter the competition completely raw. EA was a member of "The Dazzlers" which was the Florida Gators' basketball dance team.

After the opening night's airing, EA tweeted, "My feet are killing me!! But I had blast!!"

Kept It Together

Andrews did enough to finish behind Olympic gold medalist Evan Lysacek and Pussycat Dolls member Nicole Scherzinger. Andrews explained her thoughts on joining DWTS in this video.

Click Machine

Erin Andrews is already an Internet phenomenon and the longer she stays on DWTS, the more people will be hunting for photos of ESPN's sideline diva.

Shake Your Hips

Erin Andrews figures to draw an untapped audience for DWTS: younger men who simply want to see Andrews dance and throw her body around. At least her performances will draw thousands upon thousands of Web hits.
