Heather Mills has had a rubber leg fitted for her performances on 'Dancing with the Stars'.

The former model - who lost her left leg below the knee in a motorcycle accident - has had the prosthetic limb specially made to give her more flexibility on the US TV dance contest.

After performing the jive with her new leg, judge Bruno Tonioli told her: "One, two, three legs, I don't care how many - you did a fantastic job."

Meanwhile, Heather broke down on a US radio show after being praised by a caller.

The estranged wife of Sir Paul McCartney, who appeared as a guest on Ryan Seacrest's KIIS FM morning radio show, was reduced to tears after hearing the kind words.

The listener, named Pat, said: "I'm ashamed that I had a judgment against you based on everything you read in the newspapers, that you were after his money, and, come on - everyone was down on Heather Mills.

"But you have won me over, and I can admit it, I had formed a bad opinion about you. I am embarrassed, actually. I would love to apologise. And America should apologise. People should apologise. You were wrongfully treated."

Heather sobbed as she replied: "That makes me feel emotional. That's great."

Heather added: "I could have gone down that path of lowering myself to everyone else's level and proven my innocence.

"All I did was fall in love with somebody madly, and give up my life for seven years. And then just to be vilified for it? I'm actually quite shocked. I've spent 14 years doing charity work.

"If I was a gold digger, I would be a very wealthy woman now. And I'm not."

She says: 'If I was a gold digger, I would be a very wealthy woman now. And I'm not.'
I beg to differ

So what makes Paul McCartney so great? He stole a bunch of songs from Chuck Berry and made big bux singing them because he's white and white parents wouldn't let their little darlings listen to a black singer back in the 60s. Oh, yes, and wrote some drivelly children's songs. Whoopee doo. Suck him dry, Heather, for all the money he stole from the black singers whose work he stole.

The charity work is wonderful and maybe she dances well (I didn't bother to watch) but how she thinks she's entitled to so much of Paul's money after a brief 4 years with him is unfathomable. She had nothing to do with his successes - she wasn't even born during half of the Beatle years. She's a documented 'fabricator' with a sordid past who chose to go public with details that are meant to be between 2 married people - not for public display. Watch the McCartney tour video from a few years back where she herself claims to be 'bossy'. This is a shrewd woman who knows exactly what she's doing. She says she wants to be left alone and live in peace. If she REALLY wanted to live a calm and peaceful life she would stop waving her arms and not continue to put herself into situations that keep her consistently in the public eye. Trust me, we'd all forget about her quickly.

schek, I believe has truth in his words.

What does this woman have to prove to us? Her annoying and incessant whining to the British Police, the equivalent of American 911, says, 'Hey, I'm a victim, pity poor me.'

Charity work; time and a few bucks here and there.

Divorcing a famous man; big bucks,

Flailing your arms and leg to the American Public to disarm your gold digging, whining, coniving image; priceless.

I saw Heather's behavior first hand at 'her' charity event in Los Angeles which she no longer supports. She managed to insult the attendees, many of them celebrities, who paid thousands of dollars per ticket to attend the Adopt a Minefield auction. She accused them of not being generous, but gawkers. (this made no sense, Paul had just concluded a series of public concerts in California!)She continued with her mean spirited remarks to such a degree that no one bid on items she announced including the expensive gown designed by Princess Diane's tailor that she wore that evening. Her husband had to buy it to save face. He also had to buy a donated 'vegan' Cadillac when she placed a bid and no one raised it. It was a very telling evening of what a pretentious junkyard dog Heather had become with her new money and power.

Please-- what did Paul McCartney do to deserve all that money? Rode on someone else's coattails, and once John and George were dead, he tried to claim he'd done most of the work himself! Suck 'im dry, I agree!

I find it pretty stupefying that people who like his music think he must have a god-like personality to go with it. You consider him a good musician, and therefore he cannot have had faults in other aspects of his life? Only simpletons think this way, and none of you were married to him to know what he was in real life.

Not a fan of Heather in any way, but neither am I as star-struck as most of the people judging her are.

It all boils down to none of us are in on their personal lives - only what we hear and read in the media, so that doesn't give ANYONE the right to judge!!

If she never married Sir Paul she would have never gotten the opportunity to be as rich as she is. She is a true gold digger and is a lousy dancer.
