Meghan McCain has revealed on her podcast, Citizen McCain, that she has turned down offers to appear on Dancing With the Stars three times. She cited her lack of dancing skills and concerns about public humiliation as reasons for rejecting the reality competition, stating, "I just don’t want to publicly humiliate myself." Additionally, McCain explained that her political aspirations also play a significant role in her decision, as she believes participating in reality TV would jeopardize her chances of running for office. She acknowledged that accepting such offers could be financially rewarding, referencing her friend Clay Aiken's earnings from The Masked Singer. Despite the allure of reality television, McCain maintains that her focus remains on her potential political career rather than entertainment.
