The Dancing With the Stars judges have seemed a little harsh with their scores of Kellie Pickler lately. And on Thursday's Watch What Happens Live, Carrie Ann Inaba answered a fan question explicitly asking if she "has a problem" with Derek Hough's partner.

"No, actually when I give my critiques it's cause I know everybody wants to win," she insisted. "And I know that people at home see what I'm seeing. So, sometimes, yeah I could gloss over it and make a fun moment, but I think it's more important that the dancers know what's going on and what people and what people are seeing."

"So, if I tell [Kellie] what's going on, she has an opportunity to fix it still," she explained. "I always try to give [the dancers] what I can to help them."

As for which of the pro guys has the hottest physique? " I think Derek Hough has the best body!" she said. "And Mark Ballas…and then Gleb [Savchenko], not so bad. Maks [Chmerkovskiy, who's no longer on the show] had a great body. Tristan [MacManus], too, you know if you have the face in there."

"It's kind of hard to do  my job," she admitted. "We do have some good looking dancers on our show, I will say that."

Very true.
