The cast for season 13 of DWTS was revealed yesterday. Here is who will be dancing their way across your TV screen:
Carson Kressley – “The Fashion Guru”
Chaz Bono – “The Most Unexpected”
Chynna Phillips – “The Pop Princess”
David Arquette – “King of the Big Scream”
Elisabetta Canalis – “The Italian Beauty”
Hope Solo – “The Soccer Superstar”
J.R. Martinez – “Soap’s Real-Life Hero”
Kristin Cavallari – “The Reality Sweetheart”
Nancy Grace – “The Courtroom Queen”
Ricki Lake – “Daytime’s Darling”
Rob Kardashian – “Reality’s Royalty”
Ron Artest – “The NBA Champion”
Nancy Grace tweeted: “I’ve been dying to tell you guys that I am on #DWTS. Can’t wait to share the journey with you!”
They have not released how this cast is partnered with the regulars but for now do you care to share your predictions on how these celebrities will do? Do you have any one you will be pulling for?
I know Nancy Grace can talk but can she dance? I might have to watch just to see.
.
Riki Lake has some experience with dance, I believe. But I think that was a long time ago.
I’m rooting for the vet!!!!!!!!!! All the way, whether he can dance or not! 🙂
Nancy Grace? Really?
Nancy Grace! LOL, I would never have guessed. Good for her. But, but, but, isn’t she a mom? Isn’t it WRONG for moms to do DWTS???
I can’t wait to see Carson Kressley! I LOVE HIM! He is so funny! I think though I will be rooting for the vet as well. God Bless America and those who serve her!
Nancy Grace doesn’t strike me as graceful. Really, I have no idea. I have just seen her sitting behind her desk. I’m surprised at Chaz. I know he is well-known, but has he done anything in entertainment? I seem to remember some show where he was trying to lose weight, or maybe that was a segment on some other show. Although, I guess Bristol was one that wasn’t in entertainment, just well-known. I’m not that familiar w/contestants before Kate was on.
I am a fan of Ricki Lake. She did dance in Hairspray. I’m not sure the type of dancing she did will give her an edge. I loved her in Hairspray and Mrs. Winterbourne.
Nancy Grace on dancing with the stars? Better give those judges a head up on what she does when she gets pissed off. Hopefully she will be tired from dancing and will not feel like talking.
I’m pretty jazzed about this cast, though there were some that didn’t pan out that I would’ve enjoyed seeing (Kim Richards! Anthony Weiner!). I think Nancy Grace will be highly entertaining.
I wonder if Nancy Grace will like being judged. lol
What is Elizabetta claim to fame, that she dated George Clooney?
There have been quite a few nasty comments left at Radar Online about Chaz Bono. I guess I’m always surprised (though I shouldn’t be) at just how ugly and small-minded people can be. I’ll admit I was taken aback for a couple of seconds when I heard about his selection, but I got over it quick and I think DWTS is sending a positive message. I’m sure the fact that it will get tongues wagging isn’t lost on them either! Lily, Chaz was on Celebrity Fit Club and was down to earth and likable from my recollection.
.
I loved Wilson Phillips when they were popular. Chynna Phillips is almost exactly my age and I have always liked her. I read that she has been coupled with Tony and I really hope she is the cure that will help him break out of the string of back luck he has had with dancing partners! 🙂
Apparently there is a lot of negative comments on the ABC message boards also.
.
Cher took to her Twitter and tweeted:
/
“He is Such a Good Person,” she tweeted, adding “Mothers don’t stop Getting angry with stupid bigots.”
I will have to say that I did not give Chaz Bono a second thought. I was somewhat in shock that Nancy Grace was going to be on. I might have to watch.
Paula,
I think the reason Elizabeth was picked was because she looks hot! LoL.
I’m with Cher, and I would be careful what is being printed. She has a pack of lawyers.
Nancy Grace said that any money she wins would go straight to childrens charities!! Good for her!! She can afford to give it all away.
Good for Nancy. Snickers you’re right! lol
I guess I’m always surprised (though I shouldn’t be) at just how ugly and small-minded people can be.~Anya
I feel the same way. I saw some of Cher’s tweets and felt bad for her and Chaz. It never occurred to me that anyone would care. He’s hurt no one and has his own life to live.
Excited to see Carson Kressly! A little shocked that Nancy Grace joined?
Go Cher! We never stop defending our babies, do we?
.
Good for Nancy. Nice to see she is putting her money where her (very large) mouth is! 🙂
I watched Dancing With the Stars for the first time tonight and I actually found it so entertaining! I loved Carson Kressley and was looking forward to seeing Hope Solo. I have seen J.R. Martinez interviewed before and found him so inspiring and a good dancer. The only thing I don’t think I can stand are the two annoying male judges! Way too over the top for me!
I haven’t been watching. But maybe I should. 😉
There were quite a few people that I really enjoyed watching. I might stick with the whole season this time.
It was nice seeing the kids who were there watching their moms and dads, without controversy over whether the parents should be participating, or the children should be shown. Courteney Cox was there with Coco, even though she and David Arquette are separated. Coco was so cute, and she looked so happy when her daddy talked about her.
Ok….Carson Kressley…..what a hoot he was!!!! It was the first dance and all, but Ron Artest was awful and Rob Kardashian has a way to go, and poor Elisabetta, she didn’t do good. I thought Nancy Grace did pretty good, she reminded me of Kirstie Alley a little bit. I did think Coco was too cute when she reacted to her Dad talking about her. And I thought Chaz did pretty darn good. I have always loved loved loved Cher and I hope Chaz enjoys this experience.
Holly, yes, you will find many who don’t like Bruno on here! 🙂 I think most of us like Len ok though? Give him a chance!
.
I watched most of it last night. Still deciding on my favorites, but there are a few I am rooting for so far – Chynna, J.R., Chaz.
I see Ron Artest was sent home. I didn’t watch but Kmom2 called it!
Wow….he’s a little out there….Metta World Peace aka Ron Artest I hope Nancy Grace sticks around longer……I liked watching her dance.
I haven’t watched DWTS since Kate was on but I might this season because I’m rooting for Chaz. I hope he works his tail off and shows all his haters he can do it. He did say all the criticism only makes him try harder. GO CHAZ! Plus, I love the name Chaz.
