Evan Lysacek 'learning pretty quickly'

Dancing With The Stars professional Anna Trebunskaya has reportedly praised partner Evan Lysacek.

The Olympic figure skater was recently confirmed as one of the 11 celebrities who will compete in the tenth season of the ABC competition.

Speaking to OK at E!'s Oscar party on Sunday, Trebunskaya said: "I am so excited. He is cute - I have a cute and golden boy type of partner."

She added: "He is learning pretty quickly, but there are a lot of opposite things - like when he skates, everything is to the left, and a lot of our moves are to the right, so imagine Evan getting dizzy dancing."

Lysacek previously admitted that he is "a little nervous" about his dancefloor debut, and the high standard set by previous competitors such as Kristi Yamaguchi and Apolo Ohno.

Dancing With The Stars premieres March 22 on ABC, and from March 26 exclusively on Watch in the UK.
