Corey Feldman struggling to lift skating partner

'Dancing on Ice' star Corey Feldman is struggling to lift his skating partner.

The 'Lost Boys' star is paired with US champion skater Brooke Castile for the ITV show – which starts tonight (08.01.12) – but claims he is having trouble picking her up because of her "hard bubble butt".

He told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: "I'm scared of lifting my partner. She's got these giant, muscly legs and a hard bubble butt. Not in a bad butt way. I think each cheek weighs about 20lbs. That's a lot of work."

Corey, 40, also told how he and Brooke, 25, didn't initially hit it off with each other, but their relationship is improving the more time they spend on the ice.

He added: "She came in with this very rigid attitude. I think her words were 'I'm going to be a ball-buster'.

"Once we started having a bit of fun on the ice it all started coming together. But she has no interest in hanging out with me. I think she's nervous about crossing boundaries."

Corey has also had to put on 7lbs for the show, and now claims he weighs his heaviest ever at 141lbs.

Corey will be joined on the ice by celebrities including Sugababes singer Heidi Range, 'EastEnders' actress Laila Morse and 'Hollyoaks' star Jorgie Porter.
