Jerry Springer Talks 'DANCING' Return, Oprah Exit to ET

"Dancing with the Stars"' final competition takes place tonight on ABC. The new dance champion will be named in a two-hour special finale episode tomorrow evening that will be star studded with former competitors including recent Broadway 'Billy Flynn' talk show legend Jerry Springer.

"My hair hurts. Everything hurts," Springer told Entertainment Tonight after a recent rehearsal for his return segment. "I can't move. Frankly, I think they should move the floor and just let me stay put. Or, move the background. Get a green screen. That was the challenge when I was on the show. At the end of every dance, I wanted to be vertical."
