What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe Hollywood Reporter says Kim Kardashian would like to compete on Dancing With the Stars again, after finishing eleventh on season seven in two thousand eight.
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSo tonight's question: should the show give her a rematch?
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorYes, absolutely. Eleventh place is a wound that needs healing, and I cannot stand by while a woman carries that scar for eighteen years.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI once lost a regional sash contest to a girl whose baton was on fire, and I still think about her.
Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentI'm a yes too, but for lore reasons.
