Dancing with the Stars contestant Kim Kardashian is doing some visualizing empowerment.

Before this fall's round of the prime-time contest even airs, the reality show starlet has posed with the trophy won by Mark Ballas in season six.

"Mark let me hold his trophy he won when he danced with Kristi Yamaguchi last season!" Kim laughs while discussing the photo taken for her blog. "I was pretending it was ours!"

Wow, Kim. That's quite a glow you've got there.

"The trophy reflects because it is so shiny with disco ball mirrors. It made my whole face sparkle."

Kardashian and Ballas are partnered up for the upcoming DWTS season, which premieres Monday, September 22.

Meanwhile, Kim's sister Khloe is rumored to be a contestant on Donald Trump's next bout of Celebrity Apprentice.
