Thank goodness for Twitter! Without this asinine technological wonder, how would we ever know that a former pop icon wants to appear on Dancing with the Stars?

Last week, Debbie Gibson turned to her Twitter page to express an interest in joining the reality competition. She thanked her supporters for starting a petition to get her on the show.

"To Ashley who started DWTS petition! Thank u!" Gibson wrote. "Let's get crrrazy 1s of peeps to sign and then I'll make them aware : )"

In a latter Tweet, Gibson wrote that some people inside the Dancing with the Stars camp also want her to shake her booty on the series.

"Most of the team there wants me - 1 or 2 people are putting up a roadblock n [sic] every season my name's in the ring."

Think Gibson would make a good addition to the cast?
