The new stars were announced for Dancing with the Stars tonight and they are the best names yet! This season is going to be such a train wreck and I can’t wait to be on board that train.
Pamela Anderson will be trying something new…Dancing with her clothes on! Also putting on her dancing shoes is a woman who shares an ex-husband with the Baywatch star…Beverly Hills 90210’s Shannen Doherty. It is going to be interesting to see the two of them shaking it side-by-side. Someone has to invite Rick Salomon to be part of the live audience, now that would be hot!
One contestant who knows how to count to 8 is Kate Gosselin, can she win us over or will she be back to taking her care of her kids again sooner rather than later?
ESPNS’s Erin Andrews became a household name when someone videotaped her naked without her knowledge. She isn’t the only sports name to be in the mix, joining her are Olympic gold medalist and World Figure Skating champion Evan Lysacek and Cincinnati Bengals’ wide receiver Chad Ochocinco.
41 years ago Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon and now the 80 year old is trading in his space boots for dancing shoes. Jake Pavelka met his future wife on ABC and now he is going to learn how to waltz at their wedding for her on the show. All My Children just moved to LA which will make it so much easier for Aiden Turner to commute to the show than it did for his co-stars Susan Lucci and Cameron Mathison.
Rounding out the list is Reno 911’s Niecy Nash and Pussycat Dolls Nicole Scherzinger. I think Nicole should be the first one out because she has already danced on DWTS with the Pussycat Dolls and that gives her an unfair advantage. But if we are going with the least popular name on the list who doesn’t haven’t a sports or soap opera following to help them out with votes than it should be Niecy Nash. I wouldn’t mind seeing these two go first because the rest of the cast is going to fun and interesting. Imagine the outfits the women are going to be wearing this season. I think there should be a drinking game to see how many times Pamela Anderson has a nip and vag slip because you know she will be having a few of those!!!
Dancing with the Stars premieres on March 22nd and the stars will dance that night and the following Monday before one of them is eliminated on March 30th.
What do you guys think of the Dancing with the Stars 10 cast? I am loving it and the show has won me back as a fan after a few failed seasons. Now if only they would change up the judges like they are changing up the co-host I would be an extremely happy camper!
UPDATE: Here are the pairings for season 10. I wonder why they didn’t bring back some of the past dancers like Dmitry Chaplin and Jonathan Roberts instead bringing on a new dancer. I am excited that Ashly DelGrosso is back on the show since she had her baby(ies)! Looks like they want Nicole to win because imagine the choreography Derek Hough will do with her, while Louis will find himself out first for the second time since the show started. No way he will be able to get Niecy enough votes to make to week three and I am OK with that.
