Tonya Harding's ice skating experience may be giving her an advantage on "Dancing With the Stars."

It’s been more than 20 years since she became the first American woman to successfully land a triple axel, and now it seems she may be figuring out a way to do it on the dance floor!

“It’s all about me,” the 47-year-old told "Good Morning America." “So if you think about who Tonya is, then you might figure it out.”

Harding’s "DWTS" partner, Sasha Farber, has yet to win the reality competition, so maybe the former Olympian's much-anticipated move will help him take home the gold?
