When asked who she would like to see as a contestant on an upcoming season of the ABC dance reality show while in Las Vegas celebrating her birthday, Harris told People magazine that her "Hands down" choice would be the upcoming Academy Awards host and Wolverine star.
"He's a song and dance man. He's a Broadway guy," Harris told People. "He's got charisma and you know he can move."
Harris said that she had previously approached Jackman and proposed that he compete on the ABC dance reality show. She added that she had been extremely pleased with his response.
"He actually twirled and dipped me. I was so excited," she told People. "That made my year."
