Will Steve-O's Fans Keep Him on DWTS?

DWTS, Lacey Schwimmer, Steve-O ABC/KELSEY MCNEAL

Impressive fancy footwork or not, Steve-O’s Dancing With the Stars pro partner Lacey Schwimmer says the Jackass prankster should go far in the competition.

“Every week is different. And you always hope for the best, but usually it ends up turning out awful,” Schwimmer told us last night at the opening of the new L.A. outpost of the What Comes Around Goes Around vintage store. “But Steve-O has amazing fans. They’re following him through this.”

Steve-O was not only seeing specialists last week for back problems believed to be related to his Dancing training, but...

Things took a turn for the worse during Monday’s dress rehearsal when he suffered another back injury after falling on his mic pac. He and Schwimmer didn’t perform their salsa that night.

It's still unknown if Steve-O will be able to return to the dancefloor next week, but Schwimmer's keeping her hopes up.

“He’s a great guy," she said, adding, "I want people to see the guy that I get to see in him.”
