Meet the New Cast of Dancing With the Stars

February 9, 2009

ABC announced the new cast of Dancing with the Stars on Sunday, and this just might be the craziest group of contestants yet. It's a group pretty heavy on musicians: Jewel (who's doing her second reality show with her husband, former rodeo star Ty Murray), Belinda Carlisle, Lil Kim, and Chuck Wicks. Among the other contestants: Olympic gymnast Shawn Johnson, comedian David Alan Grier, and Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak. Intrigued? Click through to meet all 13 contestants before the show premieres March 9!

I'm actually really excited for this season, actual prominent stars... lol. Yay Nancy, Jewel, Chuck... can't remember everyone else, but it should be a good one.

such a unique, diverse group. i think i'll root for steve-o. despite being offensive at times, he is pretty funny and i like him. and he trained with barnum and bailey circus so that might be good for tricks? don't know. lil kim... the outfits on the show will be too conservative for her.

Weird. What a weird, weird group.

I think I was the most surprised by Steve-O and Lil Kim -- just don't see them having as much fun as some of the other celebs that are raving about the competition

They must of ran out of "celebrities" because I don't like any of these and they all are such random choices.

It's going to be an interesting season. I'm betting on Shawn, but the others could surprise me.

i'm kind of surprised at a lot of these, but i guess they are looking for a nice mix of folks. i don't know if there are any people there that would make me want to watch though. the apple guy? i saw him on Kathy Griffin's show and that was enough for me. Shawn Johnson? shouldn't she be in school instead of filming a show?
