Two-time "Dancing With the Stars" champion Cheryl Burke is looking forward to returning to the ABC show when its new season premieres in late September and says she's completely open to any partner she may be given. "I really don't care as long as the person is very open-minded and a hard worker, who is willing to do whatever it takes," claims Burke.

"It's very important when you do something new that you have an open mind. It's especially harder for men because they don't want to come across as feminine. Sometimes that makes them closed off to things."

When asked if she's tried to talk any of her newfound celebrity friends into joining the program, Burke responds, "Sometimes I'll ask them, and they just laugh. When they hear it for the first time I think they just think they can't do it. They're very insecure about it. It's not until you start that you begin to get into it."
