'Dancing With the Stars' season 7 cast: Exposed!

Bre Mon, Sep 1, 2008 at 04:59 PM EST

So I'm totally on Team Lance for this season. Just like I was on Team Joey when he was on. It's an *NSync thing.
Cody: Not so sure I dig the fact that he's on here, it's probably just because he kissed Miley. Then again, maybe he's trying to prove that at 18 he can do more than be a Disney star.
Kim: Um..excuse me, what makes her famous in the first place? I don't see anything spectacular about her. So she has money...pretty sure that there are tons of people who fit that criteria...she's nothing special.

kate Sun, Aug 31, 2008 at 06:50 PM EST

wow cody linley! what is he like 12?

HulaMama Sat, Aug 30, 2008 at 12:00 PM EST

I'm just happy that Alec Mazo is coming back......!!!!

Jenn Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 01:25 PM EST

Initially, I didn't want Lance Bass to go far, but since I've heard he's partnered with Lacey Schwimmer, I hope they go the distance.

To Reality Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 11:36 AM EST

People did not call Shannon a skank but she was at least an actress or decent poker player. Kim is a second rate Paris, which is very pathetic.

jen Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 10:23 AM EST

what about the pairings? Who will they all be paired with?

Iris, I would say that the early money would be on the other Olympian, Maurice Greene.
Athletes have won for four straight season. Yes, I am considering Helio to be an athlete. I expect great footwork from Maurice - a track & field Olympian.

Reality, there are people who don't watch. Every season, the ratings for this show have gone down. After awhile, there are only so many quickstep routines you can watch before you have to turn off the tube.

Floral Gal Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 09:09 AM EST

Does Balls wear rubber gloves when he waltzes Kim around? STD's spread fast.
Brooke has lost all her popularity from days gone by, she should have stayed married to the dentist so when the rest of her fades,at least she'll have dentures.All these people trying to get famous again is so pathetic most especially Brooke. I would love to see some new fresh person win the next one,such as this new young Disney boy, we've already had old & has-beens lets get some young stuff on,and Julianne is the one to do it,look what a fantastic job she did with Apollo.This young person can probably move like a gazelle, I will watch him closely.My closing words will bemI think they should have paramedics standing by each week,first for Cloris, then to test everyone who came near Kim.

Rocco DeSpirito? Ewwwwwwwwwwwww!

duranmom Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 06:44 AM EST

For me, when they announce the cast at the beginning of every season, I have to figure out who they are (Cristian de la WHO?!?)and can't imagine these people dancing and hanging out in the back and *gasp* getting along. But every year I am pleasantly surprised by the "stars" -- whether they be a D-lister, an olympic medialist or Oscar winner, or somewhere in between. They come, they get all "dance floor ready" with the glitter and the spray tans and the somewhat tacky outfits, and they dance on liiiiive TV (some really good, some not so good). Kudos to all of them for giving it a shot.

Iris Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 06:33 AM EST

First off, Annie! Great to read you again! Love your snarkilicious comments :)

Secondly, I am totally okay with this cast, even the ones I've never heard of before, like the kid and the comic.
Agreed, Ted McGinley is a show-killer, hopefully not this time though. Hubby's early money is on Misty May (oh how he loved the Olympic beach volleyball) but MY early money is on Susan Lucci. Maybe she's a better dancer than actress. All I know is, I can't wait for the show to start!! Love ya, Annie!

Reality Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 10:54 PM EST

Gotta love it. Same dumb comments every year. "Where are the stars?" WHEN HAVE THEY EVER HAD STARS? Only famous people. There IS a difference.
Clooney, Damon, Cameron Diaz, Beyonce, Miley... even Michael Phelps right now... THOSE are stars. And no celebrity on that level will EVER... E-E-E-VER... compete on DWTS. Not now, not ever. DWTS only gets famous people. NOT stars. You will NEVER get stars. Deal with it. Lance Bass would never have done DWTS at the height of N'SYNC-mania. Too big a star then. Not anymore.

About the Kim K. comments: From the same people who said they wouldn't watch when "that skank Shannon Elizabeth" was on. They were the first to post "I can't believe she got eliminated, she should've stayed another week, etc." So there goes THEIR credibility.

Finally, to the "I'll never watch again" commenters: You LIE. We'll see your posts after episode 1. Happens every season. You say you won't watch, but you will and you know it. So can it with the false threats.

ks Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 06:57 PM EST

Let's just give the mirror ball to Misty right now and save the pain....

McNLT Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 06:30 PM EST

i'm excited for this season. misty may-treanor is an amazing volleyball player and i'm looking forward to seeing her dance. lance bass is so sweet and has some great moves that haven't been seen in a while and cody linely, what can i say. he's my fav from disney channel and i can't wait to watch him and his cute face and comedic attitude act. overrall, i think this season is going to be one of their best and no one should skip out on it. :D

Daryl Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 06:21 PM EST

Interesting group....to up the anty, it would have been fun if they had put Lance Bass with a male partner. Would have made for some interesting tv!

Bugaboo Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 05:32 PM EST

I'm watching only for Lance.

Jennifer Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 04:37 PM EST

Max & Misty all the way baby!!!! :)

Berdenia Broes Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 04:08 PM EST

They are getting hard up, I've never heard of half of them. I use to get excited over who was up for another season. I think I'll sit this one out for sure. Nothing exciting here.......

Betty Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 04:00 PM EST

My son and I are skipping this season because we don't like the cast.

MsDaisy Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 03:27 PM EST

Jeez...can't even be bothered to write a new story, can you?

Bobbi Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 02:46 PM EST

You left out the best news - MAKS IS BACK! I'm a happy girl! :)

Sharlin Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 02:41 PM EST

Lance for the win.

Carmela Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 02:10 PM EST

After reading all the comments I thought I should post mine.So lets start with Cloris-NO,MISTY-no she's too tired LANCE-no,SUSAN-no-no, TED-no ,ROCCO-maybe,TONI-heart-attack,JEFFREY-who is he?,MAURICE-who is he,KIM-everybody get a health card because STD's spread fast,WARREN-don't be surprized,CODY-Don't know him, but Julianne did wonders with Apollo so I'm keeping my hopes high,I'd like to see a Disney star do it,and although I like Julianne I hear her singing career is'nt going yoo well,let's face it she'll never be a Carrie Underwood.
I'm so darned happy that Lacey Schwimmer is going to be a choreographer, that gal can dance up a storm,just like her brother Benji...Last but not least,puhleeze,who's going to get rid of Samantha Harris????????????????????
I'm so happy Max is back,I hope he gets happy since he was so in love with Willa Ford who wound up marrying Mike Modano.It's not going to last, she should have chosen Max.I still have the tivo of how he gazed so in love with her.

Fletch Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 02:03 PM EST

How could any of you be offended by what catsuny said? I couldn't understand a damn word he/she was saying.

Here's hoping we see ALOT of Kim K., if you know what I mean...

boyboy Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 02:01 PM EST

I know lance bass and his twin brother are on it, they were out together the other night

http://www.yournobody.com/2008/08/21/more-proof-houston-is-loser-central/

jfm Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 01:59 PM EST

To all those people who don't know who any of these contestants are this year, congratulations!! You actually have a life. However, don't spoil it for those of us who do know who these people are with your griping and complaining. They are all stars in their respective fields. It's not called "Dancing with the Superstars"--if it were than you might see your Brangelina's & your Tom's & Julia's but until then be quiet and enjoy the camp value. (I can't wait to see Cloris wipe the floor with Brooke & Kim)

Billy Bob Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 01:47 PM EST

Conundrum:A paradoxical, insoluble, or difficult problem; a dilemma:
Love Misty-hate Maks, Love Lacey-Hate Lance, Love Edyta-Hate Jeremy, love Toni-Hate Alex. Susan is like fingernails on the Blackboard EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!No conundrum there-Tony is just as grating. Gonna be interesting.

Billy Bob Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 01:32 PM EST

Hooey, My favorite all-time contestant is back as a pro. Lacey, Lacey, Lacey!! Too bad she's with that punk Lance. How am I gonna feel when this starts??? And my favorite Pro< Julianne is back with a KId. (He's actually only 1-2 years younger than her. Actually a good group of "stars" know then All except Cody and Rocco. Should be a good season. BTW: how does Derek get all the hotties?

J Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 01:27 PM EST

I think I'm anxious to see how Lacey Schwimmer does as a pro. I think Cloris Leachman might be ok. Of course its the las season since Ted McGinley = show killer.

JMO Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 01:18 PM EST

Misty May and Maks? oh that will be hot. He had Laila Ali, then Scary Spice. now Misty May. All strong strong women. Should be fun to watch.

to catsuny Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 01:17 PM EST

Please pay attention to your typing.

S Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 01:15 PM EST

Those of you who hated Marie Osmond will soon feel that way about Susan Lucci. The word DIVA comes to mind.

Michael Martinello Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 01:11 PM EST

What people don't know is Jeffery Ross is an accomplished tap dancer. You wouldn't expect that from this funny man but he is a total "Dark Horse" in this competition and is my pick to win it all.

garth Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 12:12 PM EST

WTF? Very B-List

Tim Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 12:10 PM EST

They almost had it right. Just replace McGrath with Dispirito and you're all set. With the addition of McGinley, I guess they plan to do some fancy leap over the shark. And won't Toni Braxton feel overdressed in those outfits?

coda Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 11:57 AM EST

WTF is an "INTER RACIEL LOVER"?
So pathetic

Jenks Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 11:57 AM EST

"Stars" are so-so, but I'm glad to see some new pro blood. Lacey Schwimmer should be a welcome addition to shake up the ladies a little. Glad they've brought in a mature dude for Cloris. Go Frau Blucher!

jen Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 09:50 AM EST

no Fabian Sanchez? I thought he did great last season with Marlee Matlin.

to catsuny: Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 09:25 AM EST

There are lots of negative things to be said about Kim Kardashian; please explain to me how being an "INTER RACIEL LOVER" is one.

texaslas Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 09:25 AM EST

Here are the pairings:
Lance Bass--Lacey Schwimmmer (from SYTYCD)
Tony Braxton--Alec Mazo
Brooke Burke--Derek Hough
Rocco DiSpirito--Karina
Maurice Green--Cheryl
Kim K--Mark Ballas
Cloris Leachman--Corky Ballas (Mark's Dad)
Cody Linley--Julianne Hough
Susan Lucci--Tony Dovolani
Misty May-Treanor--Maks
Ted McGinley--Inna Brayer
Jeffrey Ross--Edyta
Warren Sapp--Kym Johnson

jubjub Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 08:25 AM EST

EW is only minorly wrong. Chef Rocco Dispirito in lieu of McGrath. During the announcement they mentioned Cody will be paired with Julianne Hough, IIRC Maks, Edyta and Kym Johnson are all back this season.

Amy Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 08:18 AM EST

They just announced the real cast this morning and everything you have is right except Mark McGrath. Chef Rocco DiSpirito is the last person.

catsuny Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 08:06 AM EST

Well here all go again.I checked out the cast ,ah kinda sucky ,Kim K white trash ABC how low can you go? the sr.citizen thing could be interesting .BUT Ido not watch anymore,Icant Samantha Harriss,ITS my choice and I do know others who dont watch because of her.For ABC TO PICK THE PORN, BIG ASS, WHITE TRASH, INTER RACIEL LOVER SHOWS AMERICA THEY HAVE NO CLASS AND ENCOURAGE AND PRODUCE GARBAGE .MYopinion and my choice not to watch so for all who do enjoy have fun...please pay attetion to the real picture

Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 01:56 AM EST

Cloris will kick everyone to the curb.

mehere Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 12:57 AM EST

Not a very inspiring list.
And what about the Dancers? Will Julianne be back?

Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 11:37 PM EST

I kinda like Cloris Leachman too. I bet she may surprise us. I just hope this isn't the final list. I don't know half these people. Would love to see more stars I've heard of on the list. I believe these names are just rumors. Can't wait till Monday morning to find out who the final dancers will be.

sonotwatching Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 10:53 PM EST

Since I only watched TV on Mondays it seems I do not have to turn it on at all since I'll pass on the show this season. Worst cast yet! Sorry SAMATHA WHO (really liked the show) your show is not enough to switch on the tube.

Bridget Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 10:44 PM EST

If you don't like it, don't watch it...and don't complain. Misty is very outgoing and charismatic (actually so is Kerri) so it should be fun to watch.

Larry Bryant Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 09:26 PM EST

A little disappointed with this years "stars". Have been a fan of the show since the beginning, but to hold me as a fan these guys are going to have to show me something early in the season. I do think that Ms Leachman may surprise so of the people whose comments I just read. Have seen a lot of her work. She's a real pro and wouldn't have accepted if she thought she'd disgrace herself.

Jerry Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 07:22 PM EST

Kim Kardashian: so...Brooke Hogan was too busy?
Lance Bass: Being in a boy band doesn't make you a ballroom dancer
Toni Braxton: As long as they don't make her sing...
Brooke Burke: Dating someone famous doesn't make you a star.
Maurice Greene: He may have the moves, but he's hardly a star
Cody Linley: Maybe my 10 year old daughter will watch
Susan Lucci: Hasn't she learned she never wins anything yet?
Warren Sapp: A fat gut and bad knees. Yeah, he's my pick!
Misty May-Treanor: No stranger to embarrasing herself for applause
Ted McGinley: Ditto.
Mark McGrath: Like Lance Bass, but handsome
Cloris Leachman: Someone should tell her TV isn't in Black and White anymore
Jeff Ross: Inexplicably unafraid of being voted off the show

Luly Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 07:12 PM EST

I've never heard of some of these people. Why can't they get people who are known? But it's going to be hard and has been hard, to top Emmitt Smith. He had grace, elegance, and style.

Katrina Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 04:16 PM EST

I think this group is a nice balance of celebrity. I like to give them all a fair shot, before I go negative. You can be very amazed at, who wants to really dance and who is willing to put in the long hours of work. That is one thing that makes DWTS so interesting and keeps you watching.
Some people are too quick to judge...and some are just too nieve to open their mouths at all. It is television people! Enjoy it or change the channel!

Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 03:53 PM EST

My gosh. Who are these people? Aside from Kim K (ewww), Lance Bass (yuck), Toni Braxton, and Susan Lucci...who are these other people?? And let's not even go there with Cloris Leachman...she's 500 years old. I love her and she's wonderful...but too old for the show.

Linda Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 03:13 PM EST

All these stars suck!! Why bother to even watch this show. It's getting old and tired...time to retire it to the archives.

Melanie Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 03:12 PM EST

Sholuld be interesting

Rain Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 12:28 PM EST

Misty May All the WAY!!!!!!

Alex Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 04:44 AM EST

I had to Google 7 of these names to figure out who they even are!

sam Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 04:33 AM EST

Last year TMZ announced names of so called DWTS contestants in early August and they only had about 2 right when the announcement was finally made by ABC. I hope most of these names are wrong. I never heard of most of these people. Where's the real stars?

JB Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 01:50 AM EST

To Miss Anthropic, Brooke Burns dated Bruce Willis. Brooke Burke was a Playboy model,host of CBS's "RockStar" and is engaged to David Charbet of "Baywatch" Fame.

Miss Anthropic Sat, Aug 23, 2008 at 08:03 PM EST

Kim Kardashian: Can u say OVEREXPOSED
Lance Bass: No comment. He seems nice.
Toni Braxton: Probably promotion for herself and to help her dedication to Autism.
Brooke Burke: I guess she has to do something since she's been out of the spotlight since breaking up a while ago with Bruce Willis.
Maurice Greene: Don't think he needs spray tan .... this is not where olympians should be IMO.
Cody Linley: From Hannah Montana? Ugh. Please stop self promoting Disney so much it's nauseating.
Susan Lucci: Love La Lucci ... I'd like to see how far she gets ... she has performed in Vegas often with Regis on same bill but sep. It seems every year or nearly they have a soap person ... why not this year.
Warren Sapp: I wonder what he'll do here for unsportsmanship
Misty May-Treanor: So much better than this!
Ted McGinley: Happy Days...Married w/ugh.
Mark McGrath: How the Hot have fallen
Cloris Leachman: Go Granny Go!
Jeff Ross: This should be good ... gotta love The RoastMaster General.

shay Sat, Aug 23, 2008 at 05:22 PM EST

Who's Kim K? Never heard of him.

Jeanette Sat, Aug 23, 2008 at 01:45 PM EST

Why are people so darn mean about who is chosen to appear on Dancing With The Stars? Its a television show, shut up and watch it!

star Sat, Aug 23, 2008 at 06:40 AM EST

I only heard of 5 of those people. Geez. Couldn't they have found some real stars. After all...is is called Dancing With the "STARS".

BERAND KIRSCHNER Sat, Aug 23, 2008 at 12:54 AM EST

Get some good names for the show.

B. Kirschner
Oceanside, CA.

matty C Sat, Aug 23, 2008 at 12:08 AM EST

Erica Kane (Susan Lucci), YES! Mark McGrath, heck yes! Kim Karashian, no, please someone make her go away. and i'm sorry but Toni Braxton is too talented to have to be forced to be on this show... record labels please sing her and promote her butt off.

Britney:) Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 11:56 PM EST

Did you read what Mrs. Kristy typed.. for all you guys been in the the balconies is because you are not Rocket Science like Mrs. Kristy... in other words she doesn't think highly about you guys because you are not dressing properly for the event "like she did" Wow! I am very impressed! How sad!

sampedranita@aol.com Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 11:38 PM EST

Mrs. Rocket Science... perhapes you were in your lucky day... or probably you went once! Friends and I we went the whole seasson or probably you are one of those that like to be seen on CAMARA...LOL hm?

Kristyl Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 11:18 PM EST

I say YES to Susan Lucci...we have been trying to get her to do this for some time now! We should be so lucky! She will be amazing if she is on! And by the way, I have a great time at the tapings. If you don't want them parking you up in the ceiling, dress nice and look good on camera! It's not rocket science LOL...

Mamuchita Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 10:49 PM EST

The downside of all of this.. is that ABC doesn't change their stage and they used the people on the balconies for the look on CAMARA, but if you ask anyone who has been sitting there PEOPLE don't see ANYTHING and on top of that!!! they have 2 small 12 inches TV hanging from the ceiling far far away from you that makes it impossible to see our celebritries on the dance floor.. from those balcanies all you can see is 1 inch of the dance floor. Ushers are very rude!!!! Hopefully they can change it and people can enjoy it. It's unfair with all the money they have and they don't try At all to keep the AUDIENCE happy instead they call security to scort you out. People are better off to watch it from HOME!!!!

Katie Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 10:30 PM EST

Omg pretty cool cast this season! Esp. Ted McGinley I Lv him, he's totally amazing! I was hoping he joined!

Alan Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 09:24 PM EST

Wow. The longer this show is on the air the more D-list these celebrities become!! It's the top-rated reality show on the air, pretty much, can't they attract anyone better than this despicable E-list bunch of nobodys????? JUMP THE SHARK! JUMP THE SHARK!!

jealous Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 06:04 PM EST

Ha ha ha - jealous of Kim K? ha ha ha her family must be on this site defending her. ha ha ha ha trash = Kim K

TorontoTom Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 06:02 PM EST

What happened to football great Dan Marino? He was rumoured to be on this season.

jmo Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 06:01 PM EST

Also - I heard that Cloris Leachman was to be on but pulled out. Haven't heard who the supposed replacement is.

Dell Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 06:01 PM EST

Who are the stars? I thought I kept up but did not know many of these personalities or whatever they are.

JMO Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 06:00 PM EST

Susan Lucci - yuck and yes I watch AMC but fast forward thru her. Vanity-plus. She has has experience on broadway.She will over play her role just like on AMC. Kim K?? barf choke gag. Porn star - rich spoiled trash. I am cringing for whoever is her partner.

Molly Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 05:19 PM EST

Yawn.

Silv Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 05:18 PM EST

Annie, say it ain't so! This breaks my heart. Even the Lucc won't do it for me this season. I stopped watching soaps, especially AMC, years ago. This is soooo over.

susie Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 05:13 PM EST

These names are all just speculation. Monday is the official announcement. EW is turning into TMZ now...

Ryan Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 04:48 PM EST

someone should put these women on that show, they certainly think they're stars

http://www.yournobody.com/2008/08/19/you-must-be-poor-rich-guys-dont-date-women-their-age/

JP Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 04:37 PM EST

OK, I know I'm not as hip on things as I used to be, but PLEASE, I thought it was Dancing W/The Stars, not Dancing w/the D-List!!

DANCING QUEEN Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 03:58 PM EST

To all of you KIm K haters - have you ever seen their reality show on E ! because my opinion of her changed after watching that series of shows.I had hoped that her Mother Kris Jenner would also be one of the dancers - that was a rumour. Anyway - most likely Kim K will lose weight , and get in awesome shape during the run of the show, like many other dancers before her. Cloris Leachman in the cast worries me - is she in good enough health ? Hopefully all o fhte celebs are carefully screened ...

Smelly Bottom Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 03:21 PM EST

I agree with you, ugghh.

I'm sure that if Kim were standing in front of the husbands of the ladies posting on here, they would sell their wives out in a second for a chance at her.

And the guys - well, their venom comes from the fact that they will NEVER be with someone that smoking hot.

Jealousy spawns anger indeed.

Jacob Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 03:12 PM EST

Wow!! I am very excited to see Cloris, Susan L, Lance & Maurice Green dance on DWTS!! Kim and Brooke, please leave the cast and please be replaced by Melissa Joan Hart and/or Corbin Bleu!

Crystal Diane Stevens Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 03:05 PM EST

Wow. Watch a bunch of has-beens this year. Last season, the only real star was Priscilla Presley. This time they didn't even have someone of her level. I'm surprised they just don't toss in the guy from the Suwbay commercials and be done with it.

Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 02:51 PM EST

Cody Linley is an actor/singer from Hannah Montana.

I can not wait for the show to start,

ugghh Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 01:42 PM EST

Some of you people on this board are a little over the top. Why all the hostility towards Kim- what has she ever done to you? Jealousy usually spawns anger, I guess?

Greyhound Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 01:02 PM EST

I hope Kim K. gets slammed by a bus and leaves this world before taping begins. Nobody wants to see that nasty skanklette on the show.

monkey Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 12:58 PM EST

kim k is only a celebrity b/c she SOLD a SEX TAPE

who cares that she holds down and job and hasn't been arrested? she isn't a CELEBRITY, ONLY A HO

DWTS better rethink this...watched since the beginning and WILL NOT watch if she is on...let me know when she is voted off

dacub Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 12:57 PM EST

Not a big fan of Kim K .... but to all those talking about her big ass have you seen Misty May's ? Could be a separate show ... maybe a quiz show bet your big ass..............

Mars McDaniel Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 12:00 PM EST

Um...am I the only one who remembers season 4? As in...the year of the Apolo? (And Laila Ali, too, can't forget her :)) I'm not? Good. Nothing, NOTHING is wrong with being a "current" athlete and doing DWTS. I mean, Apolo did it, balancing training time with dance practice, and still managed to come out absolutely shining. Misty's just amazing, so she should be great. If this isn't just a rumor, of course!

L Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 11:52 AM EST

So long as Maks gets a good partner, I'm happy! Some of these people I've never heard of. Every season they start throwing out names before the announcement...everyone just take a chill pill and wait for 8/25 then we can start complaining.

strickens_girl Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 11:16 AM EST

This show is still on? Wow. I stopped watching after John O'Hurley was robbed in season 1 and forgot it was still on the air.

Oh, and Betty - of course Lance Bass is going to dance with a woman. What? Did you not think there were gay men dancing ballroom professionlly? Please! There are plenty of gay men who dance with (gasp) women.

Sandra Brown Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 11:10 AM EST

Why all the negative remarks about K. Kardashian- Yeah, she got busted on the sex tape scandal , but if that is the best you have then just leave it alone. She works and earns her own money, she is not getting arrested for DUI's or drugs and she is not constantly in the public eye for other horrendous activities. So my question again is why all the negativity?

Let me know when Kim K gets voted off so I can start watching the show.

Cloris Leachman is five hundred and twenty five years old.

I just saw her on the Bob Saget roast, and while she is absolutely terrific, she just doesn't move that well. I think that one has to be made up.

Agree, though, that after watching SYTYCD it's going to be hard to get interested in some of the early rounds. You know, the Mark Cuban/Penn Jillette type dances. they're just...boring.

Re: betty's post.

I hope Lance dances with a woman, but that's just so that all contestants can be judged equally.

Frankly, I'm not very concerned about whether or not my children see him dancing with a man. They are intelligent, tolerant, and kind enough to not get scarred by such a "horrid" thing.

Freaking bigot!!!

I'm still waiting for the scoop that Samantha Harris WON'T be returning to the show. Any hope?

Toni Braxton? I already got her recap nickname ready... Mumbles! You can never understand a word she sings sometimes. Cloris Leachman, Misty May, and Susan Lucci will be fun! Kim Kardashian can just plan to be voted off immediately... I guess a big ass and a sex tape and a famoous step-dad can get you everywhere...sad.

Chloris Leachman is an interesting choice - an older woman instead of man this time. But isn't she now in her 80s?
