Tiger King's Carole Baskin has revealed her first Dancing With The Stars appearance will see her showing off her best moves to "Eye Of The Tiger".

The big cat lover will appear on the program alongside other celebrity contestants including rapper Nelly, Catfish host Nev Schulman and Selling Sunset real estate agent Chrishell Stause.


The show kicks off on TV on Monday, and Baskin has revealed her first dance will be to Survivor's 1982 hit "Eye Of The Tiger", which featured on the Rocky III soundtrack.

“We are doing 'Eye Of The Tiger', I'm so excited about that," she told E! News.

Baskin, 59, also outlined her requests for the show's famously over-the-top outfits.

“I told the costume department, 'No fur, no feathers, no leather,'" she said. “'But anything else, I don't care how wild.' I just said to have a blast. I can't wait to find out what they come up with."

Animal rights activist Baskin is the CEO of Big Cat Rescue and rocketed to fame earlier this year following the massive success of Netflix's wild drama series Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem And Madness.

The series chronicled Baskin's feud with eccentric zoo owner Joe Exotic, whom she accused of animal abuse.

Exotic, who became an unlikely hero among Tiger King viewers, is serving 22 years in prison for his role in a murder-for-hire plot.

Supermodel Tyra Banks is on hosting duties following the departures of Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews.

Conservatives lashed out at toymaker Mattel after the company introduced a new Barbie doll with Type 1 diabetes, including an insulin pump and blood sugar tracker—an action they say is "woke" while not understanding the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes.

Mattel revealed a new partnership with Breakthrough T1D— formerly known as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation—to launch a Barbie doll that authentically represents people living with Type 1 diabetes. The collaboration, Mattel said, ensures the doll “truly captures the community,” including accessories that “accurately reflect the medical equipment” commonly used by individuals with the condition.

MAGA Influencer Charlie Kirk Called Out After Blaming DEI For High Death Toll In Texas Flooding Disaster

Turning Point USA founder and MAGA influencer Charlie Kirk was harshly criticized after he claimed the death toll in the flash floods that have devastated central Texas "would not have been as high if it wasn't for DEI," ridiculously suggesting that principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion were responsible.

Kirk's comments are reflective of President Donald Trump’s broader push to dismantle federal programs focused on diversity and inclusion—part of what he pledged in his inaugural address would be a campaign to stop attempts to “socially engineer race and gender into every aspect of public and private life.”
