Bristol Palin almost took home the mirrored ball trophy on Dancing With the Stars in 2010. The daughter of the former vice president candidate Sarah Palin, came in third place, but she's back for the all-star season and she told People, "I've grown up a lot since last time. I was 19 when I started Dancing with the Stars the first time. And this time I'm 21, going on 22. I've matured a lot in those few years."

The reality star admits she hasn't been active in keeping up with the moves she learned on the show with her pro dance partner Mark Ballas.
"I haven't danced at all," she says. "I still refuse to dance at a wedding or anything like that, just because I'm pretty shy ... People are expecting you to whip out the quick-step or something and that's just not me."
