«Breaking News» Cassandra Thorburn reveals the real reason she joined Dancing with the Stars

Cassandra Thorburn joined Dancing with the Stars in the hope of turning over a new leaf in life. 

The 47-year-old, however, has an even deeper reason for learning to dance and appearing on the reality show. 

Speaking to The Daily Telegraph, the former journalist says it was her son, Jackson, who motivated her the most - by insisting she cannot dance. 

'He thought I couldn't do it': Cassandra Thorburn reveals the real reason she joined Dancing with the Stars... after her performance was slammed by judges as a 'failure'. Pictured: 2018

'I went to Jackson, my eldest, and I said, "I think I'm going to do DWTS" and he turned and said "No, you're not - you can't f***ing dance". And right then and there I decided it was time I learnt to dance.'

She added: 'So I signed up. If Jackson - who did 10 years of ballet - thinks I can't dance then I'm going to learn to dance.'

The comments come after Cassandra says she joined the show in order to change the perceptions of those who saw her as Karl Stefanovic's wife.

She told Confidential: 'There's the Cass that people think of as the former Mrs Stefanovic. I was never a Mrs Stefanovic. I have always been Cass Thorburn'.  

The mother-of-three added that her role on Dancing with the Stars will give her the opportunity to be herself. 

'It is a fresh start to a new year and a great outlook... I can control being able to present myself as me,' she said.

However the author's first performance on the dance show was savaged by the judges.    

The former journalist performed the Viennese waltz to Nina Simone's hit Feeling Good, where the lyrics 'a new day, a new dawn' alluded to her new chapter. 

While she said she felt 'beautiful, confident and happy' with her performance, one of the judges Craig Revel Horwood gave her harsh criticism.

Giving her a score of just one, Craig told Cassandra: 'Frankly it was a failure!'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
