Interview: Barbie Blank talks new show ‘WAGS’ on E! network (Includes interview)

The first season of the popular reality show aired last fall and it will make its return to E! on June 26. “Well, I get married in this season!! So you will get to see everything when it comes to picking out my dress, some Bridezilla moments, and the ups and downs of planning a wedding. Then, of course you will see our gorgeous wedding and reception. I can’t wait for the fans to be able to feel like they were there,” she said.

Barbie is best-known in World Wrestling Entertainment as WWE Diva Kelly Kelly. She competed in WWE from 2006 to 2012 which included becoming the Diva’s Champion in 2011 and being featured on WWE Monday Night Raw, WWE Smackdown, and WrestleMania XXV. “My best memory would have to be winning the WWE Diva’s Championship! I felt like all of my hard work over the last five years had finally paid off, and it meant that the WWE and Vince McMahon really had a lot invested in me and recognized how much my job meant to me,” she said.

Originally from Jacksonville, Florida, Blank started her athletic career at a young age participating in competitive gymnastics, cheerleading, track and softball. She is married to retired NHL player Sheldon Souray, of the Anaheim Ducks.

On her future plans, she said, “Right now, my main focus is being a great wife to my husband. I’m very excited for season two of WAGS to premiere on June 26. I would love to do something in fitness whether it be endorsing fitness wear, or a fitness video, or really anything involving fitness since it is still such a huge part of my life. I also love acting, so if I had an opportunity to do more of that I would love to! I’m looking forward to seeing what opportunities this year has in store for me. The sky’s the limit.”

For her fans, she concluded, “I just want to thank them for always supporting me with whatever I do. They have always been so loyal all of these years since I was 19 and starting in the WWE and they have continued that into my new venture of being on the show WAGS. I just can’t thank them enough for always having my back. My fans mean everything to me.”
