Dancing's Louie Vito: Can He Salsa Into Studsville?

What the new contestants on DWTS' upcoming season tell us about hitting the dance floor

Professional snowboarder Louie Vito hopes his stint on the new season of Dancing With the Stars improves his luck with the ladies.

"If worse comes to worse, maybe if I go to a wedding or a club, I can bust out some of the moves," he tells us. "I've gotta get those smooth moves that maybe aren't that typical. I might have to bust out the salsa in the middle of a club."

Like us, our fave former DWTS contestant Gilles Marini doesn't sound too thrilled about his partner Cheryl Burke's new waltzing celeb, conservative politico Tom DeLay...

"Cheryl doesn't have the best winning tool to work with," Marini says. "I think it's going to be very tough for her."

Just a few days before learning who she'd be paired with, Burke predicted she'd be matched with someone like the 62-year-old former congressman. "I'm due for the old guy," she said. "It's all right though. If I keep getting the good person then people will start being upset I think."

Meanwhile, a bunch of Vito and DeLay's competition hit Coco de Ville in L.A. last night, including Chuck Liddell, Joanna Krupa, Melissa Joan Hart, Debi Mazar and Mya.

"Fans are everything," Hart said while signing autographs outside the club. "You can't win without them."
