Could Dancing with the Stars' darling, Cheryl Burke, 28, a former dance studio owner in Laguna Niguel be the next Bachelorette? Possibly, says E!Online.

The two-time DWTS champ has ties to Laguna Niguel, her  according to her reps at the time, "an increase in rent at the location at The Center at Rancho Niguel is a primary factor in closing the studio after 3 years."

The 3,000 square foot studio was located at 28221 Crown Valley Pkwy., and was one of two separate enterprises in California to carry the Cheryl Burke Dance studio brand. It was established as one of three operating test models for Cheryl Burke Dance studios. The brand's San Francisco ballroom closed in 2010 due to high leasing costs and neighborhood changes that made planned uses of the venue impractical, according to the studio.

I'm turning 29 soon, and it's something I really want to have. I want to be in a relationship.
