‘I don’t have any dance experience, so this is very new for me,’ former ‘Hills’ starlet tells MTV News. By James Dinh Kristin Cavallari Photo: MTV News Kristin Cavallari may not have started out as a dancer, but she’s definitely a quick learner. On the season 13 debut of “Dancing With the Stars” last week, the 24-year-old former “Hills” and “Laguna Beach” starlet wowed the judges and audiences alike when she shook her way through the cha-cha, proving she has more to offer than just reality-TV drama. MTV News caught up with “DWTS” pro Mark Ballas and the former reality bad girl, who stressed the show’s grueling (but fun) rehearsal schedule. “Mark and I have been rehearsing since 8 in the morning, which Mark’s not very happy about,” the blond bombshell confessed. “But it’s been a good day. We’re getting a lot done. We’ve been here for five hours almost, so we’re a little sweaty, but it’s been fun.” “I’m not a morning person at all,” Ballas reaffirmed. Even though Cavallari nabbed a respectable score during the season premiere (19/30), the starlet told us she’s not used to all the showstopping choreography. “I don’t have any dance experience, so this is very new for me. I’m out of my element here. The only style of dance I would do is like bop around at a club,” she laughed. Coming off a rough year, which includes a broken engagement , Cavallari said she’s “having a lot of fun” in rehearsals, particularly learning the quickstep, which she’ll be performing on Monday night’s (September 26) episode. There is another dance on her bucket list as well. “I’m looking forward to learning how to salsa dance. That’s something I’ve always wanted to do,” she said. “Dancers … how they way they carry themselves is just completely different than how we do it in our everyday lives. They’re just very free with their bodies, which I’m not very used to, although with the quickstep, I have to be very in frame and strong.” Ballas is also intent on helping the reality star build up her physique, saying, “We’re working on core muscles, trying to get those abs rocking.” Will you be voting for Kristin on “Dancing With the Stars”?

Producer RedOne tells MTV News how the Gaga track turned into one seriously epic duet. By Kara Warner Cher and Lady Gaga Photo: Picture Group For all the Lady Gaga and Cher fans out there who fainted at the news that two of pop music’s biggest stars have teamed up on a soon-to-be released record, your wait is almost over! Cher herself confirmed via Twitter back in August that we would hear “The Greatest Thing” sometime in September, and because the month is quickly coming to an end, we should only have a few more days to wait to hear the highly anticipated track. To hold you over until the release, MTV News recently caught up with RedOne, the producer mastermind behind the soon-to-be hit, to find out how the song came to be and why everyone will love it. “[Gaga and I] recorded the song a few years ago, and we were always in the studio enjoying that song. It’s weird we never did anything with it,” he said. “So I remember my management and Cher’s management were trying to get us together, and I thought, ‘Oh my God, I’d love to meet Cher, just to meet her!’ And so I met her, I played her some songs, and I played her ‘The Greatest Thing,’ and she loved it. She said, ‘This is my song,’ I said, ‘Yes, it’s your song.’ ” RedOne said he let Gaga know via text message, and she was ecstatic. Then, about a month later, Red received a text from Gaga that inspired an epic pairing. “I cut the vocals with Cher first, and I was in Madrid and got a text from Gaga saying, ‘I’m thinking about jumping on the song in the remix,’ ” he recalled. “I was like, ‘No, you should jump on the original! Make it a duet.’ She said, ‘Oh yes, OK, absolutely,’ and then I spoke to Cher, and it became a party. “Everybody loved it,” he added. “Gaga on it, Cher, two big icons, [they are] part of music history. So it happened. I’m very happy to be a part of this.” Of course, RedOne wouldn’t reveal when we’ll hear the track, only that it’s coming soon. What are you expecting from a Gaga/Cher duet?
