Usain Bolt Is Down To Fox Trot On 'Dancing With The Stars'

Usain Bolt, the fastest man alive, is looking to go from the track to the ballroom.

The 9-time Olympic gold medallist said that he would totally be down to compete on "Dancing with the Stars."

He told People,

I would definitely do it. I think I can dance.

I mean, check out these sick moves!

Bolt only stopped to check his cell phone once while dancing.

He's already more qualified than me, as I am on my phone the entire night because strangers frighten me and I cannot figure out a beat to save my life.

Bolt said,

I've talked to a few people who said if you want to get on the show then we can get you on.

Like, of course they can.  Who would turn down Bolt? Certainly not one of his many conquests.

The sprinter plans on retiring from sports after next year, so maybe this is his retirement plan.

Most people when they retire just move to a smaller house in a location they love, not compete on reality TV. But to each their own.

Giphy

Obviously "Dancing with the Stars" would be missing out if they don't add the Olympian to their next season. These moves... I can hardly handle them.

Bolt currently holds the record for both the 100 meters and 200 meters, as well as the record as part of the 4 x 100 meter relay.

He was also the first to win consecutive Olympic 100 meters and 200 meters titles. His nickname is, fittingly, "Lighting Bolt."

While he is often considered to be the greatest sprinter of all time, we wonder...

Will he become the greatest Olympian fox trotter on "Dancing with the Stars" of all time, or will that title forever belong to Ryan Lochte?

We'll have to wait until next season to find out.

The nine-time Olympic gold medalist says he would love to be a contestant on hit TV show Dancing with the Stars in the future. "I would definitely do it," Bolt, 30, tells PEOPLE. "I think I can dance." And Bolt isn't wrong – the sprinter has definitely got some moves! After a press conference at the Rio Games in August, the track and field legend joined a group of Brazilian samba dancers for a performance – rolling his hips and throwing his hands in the air. "I love dancing and music," he says. And now that Bolt has officially announced his plans to retire from athletics after next year, it seems he might actually have time to appear on the show, "I've talked to a few people who said if you want to get on the show then we can get you on," he says. No doubt about it, the fastest man in the world has serious potential to win if DWTS brings him on next season.
