This season's Dancing with the Stars added up Helio Castroneves to their celebrity list, and people started getting curious about the young man with a charming smile gracing the dance floor of the highly watched dance competition. Thing is, NASCAR racing has become extremely popular, with NASCAR stars such as Jeff Gordon becoming a spokesperson for various national brands. However, IndyCar racing hasn't been that popular yet, so fans will have to wait and see what Castroneves is really all about. Castroneves' participation in Dancing with the Stars has brought him a lot of exposure, as well as his second appearance on People's yearly list of "Sexiest Men Alive." In 2001, he first landed a spot in the said list, and today, his fanbase continues to grow because of his stint on Dancing with the Stars. In fact, he was once named by People the "Sexiest Speed Demon," a name he is truly grateful for. “It's such an honor to be a part of the ‘Sexiest Man Alive' issue,” he said. “I can't tell you what a compliment it is to be thought of as sexy. I understand that my role on Dancing with the Stars has gotten me noticed by an entirely new audience, but it's also nice to know that going 200 mph for a living is also considered a glamorous job. It's fun to be recognized not only for my career racing cars, but also my moves on the dance floor!” Moreover, his fellow racers including those on the NASCAR side are in full support of Castroneves. He said, "More importantly, they're voting. It's great when you hear Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson, Mark Martin calling you and saying, 'We're all supporting you and we're here watching you every Monday.' It's fun to have this kind of friendship and this kind of support." In the last episode of Dancing with the Stars, Helio Castroneves made it into the final four. Hopefully he has enough charm to make it to the top, as he dances his way with the stars.
