Joey Graziadei already snagged the Mirrorball trophy, but he is officially lobbying for his bride-to-be to get her own turn under the ballroom spotlight. The former *Bachelor* lead believes his fiancée, Kelsey Anderson, has exactly what it takes to light up the dance floor on a future season of *Dancing With the Stars*. The reality TV star opened up about Anderson’s potential stint while hanging out on the set of ABC’s drama *RJ Decker*, where he booked a cameo for the show’s Season 2 premiere. In a chat with **, Graziadei poked a little fun at his partner's actual footwork capabilities, admitting he is not entirely sure how refined her dance moves are just yet. However, he insisted that her personality alone would make her a total standout on screen. ## Will Kelsey Anderson Compete on Dancing With the Stars? Graziadei explained that watching Anderson go through the grueling yet rewarding process would be a joy to witness. Having personally experienced the high-energy grind of the ballroom, he feels the opportunity is something she would thoroughly enjoy tackling. The 31-year-old reality personality got engaged to Anderson, 28, during the emotional finale of *The Bachelor* in 2023. Following their televised engagement, Graziadei hit the dance floor for Season 33 of *Dancing With the Stars*, pairing up with professional dancer Jenna Johnson and ultimately waltzing away as the season's champion. ## Which Bachelor Stars Want to Do Dancing With the Stars? Anderson isn't the only franchise alum Graziadei is backing for a future Mirrorball run. He also offered up a deep-cut nomination for his close friend and fellow Bachelor Nation star Andrew Spencer, insisting that Spencer has plenty of hidden dance skills waiting to be unleashed on network television. According to Graziadei, he has spent enough time out on the town with Spencer to see his smooth moves firsthand. With his own championship journey now in the history books, Graziadei seems eager to watch his closest reality TV peers step into the ballroom spotlight and keep the Bachelor Nation winning streak alive.
