Evan Lysacek Goes For Gold

Evan Lysacek shows off his gold medal as he leaves the Larry King Live studios in Los Angeles on Tuesday (February 23).

The 24-year-old figure skater recently received a tweet from Dancing With the Stars‘ Cheryl Burke and suggested that he join the show. “I would love to try Dancing With the Stars,” he told EW in an email.

“I was a proud audience member (and cheerleader) as my friends Kristi Yamaguchi and Apolo Ohno danced their way to the mirrorball trophy,” Evan said. “All I have heard from everyone that has done the show is what a blast it is. That could be a good way for me to do something extremely challenging, but also fun to celebrate my Olympic win.”
