TheDWTSseason 33 competitors spoke withUs Weeklyto reveal their top picks for who should be cast next season. Naturally, Joey chose his fiancée, Kelsey. Unfortunately,he doesn’t have high hopes for her chances of winning. “I do not think she would do well,” he admitted, adding that he thinks Kelsey would agree with that statement. “But I didn’t think I was going to do well and we’re here now. So you got to try it.”

When it comes to which professional dancer should be paired with Kelsey, an obvious choice came to mind. Since Joey danced with Jenna,it only seems fitting that Kelsey compete with none other than Val Chmerkovskiy, Jenna’s husband. Joey “would love to see that. If Kelsey and Val were together, that would be must-see TV.” Considering he doesn’t think Kelsey would fare very well onDWTS, he thinks Val would be able to “really whoop her into shape.”
