Baby is back on the dance floor.

New photos have been released of Jennifer Grey rehearsing with partner Derek Hough.

Grey, 50, last showed off her moves in 1987's Dirty Dancing.

Though she and costar Patrick Swayze famously perfected the lift in the blockbuster romance, she told UsMagazine.com her dancing skills have since slipped.

Asked if she feels like the frontrunner, she told Us, "Seriously? No, I don't at all!

"We all have different strengths and weaknesses," she added, "and I've got a handful of both."

She told Us she signed up for the show because she thought it would be "really fun. And I thought it would be a really great way to challenge myself and show by example to my 8-year old what it's like to watch mommy walk through her fears."

Said Grey, "I'm scared silly."

    Shana: You can still get psychos on this site and other sites who "force" you to sign in with a FB account. Jackson is not my real last name. No way in hell do I post anything under my real name for the world to see...I think this format is a nice gesture/attempt to weed some of it out but frankly I'm more excited about ditching that god-awful Sharpie script. I understand there are real kooks out there but they are going to get through regardless.

    @Shana Evans, I agree 100% about the psychos, there are some nutty people, my mother said the same thing, but she doesn't have FB, how did you comment without being on FB?

    Not me! I didn't do Nothin. I don't bad-mouth nobody. I'm very nice and sweet.

    I am only watching this season because of Jennifer Grey. I think that she is going to win.

    I like the new commenting section. It will definitely filter out the psychos who constantly bad mouth and badger star pics and stories. Good way to weed these folks out US!
