With Dancing With the Stars rehearsals underway, how is Kate Gosselin doing so far?

“She’s definitely not the best dancer,” her partner Tony Dovolani told UsMagazine.com Thursday at the NYC premiere of the Discovery Channel’s Life. “She’s never taken a step of dancing in her life, but she’s very hard-working. She’s willing to try everything. So, for me, it’s like I have an empty canvas that I can create a masterpiece. It’s a great opportunity to show America what I’m capable of – which is teaching somebody who has never danced before.”

He said they are worried about the competition, which includes Olympic figure skating champion Evan Lysacek.

“We have some serious front runners,” Dovolani told Us. “I told her right from the start, ‘Kate, this is not going to be easy.’ She’s ready for it.”

On Friday, he said they’ll begin rehearsing on a makeshift dance floor in the basement of her $1.1 million home in Wernersville, Pa.

If she sticks to rehearsals, “I think she’s going to do incredible,” Dovolani told Us. “I’ve never seen anybody be as driven as she is. When she comes in, whether it’s five hours or six hours of rehearsal, it’s pretty intense the entire time. It’s about learning and learning and learning.”

So does he think they have a shot at the trophy this year?

“I always think I have a shot,” he told Us. “There’s never a season I enter and I don’t think I have a shot. I approach everybody the same. If they are willing, it’s possible. The most talented people in the world normally don’t win and they’re the hardest workers.”

Gosselin told Us that being on the show is “the chance of a lifetime. I feel honored that I get that privilege.”

Fashionista Chloe Sevigny, who looks trim and toned on the cover of Elle, says her sex life is better than ever at the moment. Asked how she manages to look so good she exclusively told Elle Magazine: “I’ve just started doing yoga three times a week. “I feel strong and limber, and my sex drive is through the roof!”

But although the 35-year-old is happier than ever, she still hasn’t cracked the whole man thing. She revealed: “‘Men are intimidated by me. “My friends say, ‘You have to find someone more famous and successful than you, or someone who’s so happy with their own life they can handle the attention you get.’

“I want to be worshipped and adored, but then again I also love to be ignored. Hurgh! It’s the same old, same old.”

So is she worried about getting older?

“Getting older doesn’t bother me at all. Well, other than the baby pressure. I do want to have a baby,” she said.

The driver who accused supermodel Naomi Campbell of assaulting him has decided not to press charges against the 39-year-old model.

Through his lawyer, driver Miodrag Mejdina told the Associated Press that he “got angry and overreacted” and was sorry he called the police.

On Tuesday, Mejdina told police that Campbell slapped and punched him from behind, causing his head to hit the steering wheel. He said his eye was slightly bruised.

But Mejdina now says, “This whole thing has been blown out of proportion and I apologize to Ms. Campbell for causing that to happen.”

Campbell has had several scraps before: She was busted in 2006 for assaulting her housekeeper with a BlackBerry and served 200 hours of community service in 2008 for assaulting two police officers in London’s Heathrow airport.

What went wrong in the Sheen household?

As both Charlie Sheen and his wife Brooke seek treatment for their addictions, insiders talk in the new issue of Us Weekly about the pair, who have been in the headlines since the Christmas Day incident when the Two and a Half Men actor threatened to kill his wife.

After checking out of Malibu’s The Canyon rehab facility last month, Brooke Sheen, 32, is being treated at home for addictions to alcohol and drugs — including crack cocaine, sources have confirmed to Us. Sheen, meanwhile, checked into rehab last week for “preventative measures,” according to sources.

At home with Brooke? Her 12-month-old twin sons, Bob and Max. A family friend says that Brooke’s relapse to drugs began shortly after the twins’ birth. Born severely underweight, young Max was hospitalized for weeks. “It was a really scary situation for a new mom — for any new mom — and at that point she went back to her comfort zone…she resorted to the way she handled stress in the past.”

Meanwhile, 44-year-old Charlie — who spent time in rehab in 1998 — has “slipped” back into drinking, a friend says. “He’s been depressed, drawing the shades and watching TV by himself,” the pal says. “His idea of sobriety is ‘slipping’ less than twice a month.”

And the couple, married for about two years, “stir up each other’s worst demons,” a friend says. They break out in fights over something small or some little paranoia.”

“One time, Brooke threw a Kleenex box at him because he looked at her the wrong way,” a source recalls. “He went crazy and threw an expensive plate. It was nuts!”
