Meghan McCain has no plans on ever competing on Dancing with the Stars.

“I’m a terrible dancer and I don’t do reality TV,” Meghan continued. “The amount of reality TV I’ve been asked to do would blow your mind. I’m always like, what about my personality says I’d be good on these kind of platforms? I’m pretty shy in person. I’d be awful.”
Meghan went on to say that she was told by close friend Clay Aiken, who appeared on The Masked Singer, that she “wouldn’t have to work for a year” if she ever took a job on one of these competition reality shows.
“I’m not going to say how much [it pays] because I don’t have his permission, but he did The Masked Singer, and The Masked Singer, everybody should want to get on The Masked Singer. The Masked Singer is a paycheck,” Meghan teased.
Meghan later said that’s still keeping her options open for a political run in the future, so she’s avoiding reality TV gigs.
“I do not do reality TV, because there’s still a tiny little window in my life that I want to run for office at some point, and you can’t do both. You just can’t. It’s just not serious,” Meghan explained. “Come to me if I’m starving in the street and I’ve had some financial issues, but, I’m fine.”
Earlier this summer, it was reported that this famous athlete turned down the offer to appear on DWTS for season 33.
