Want to know who’ll be on Dancing with the Stars?

by

I’m not a big fan of Dancing with the Stars or really any reality shows, but I know that many of you are so I thought I’d take a moment and give you the scoop on which celebrities will be appearing when the ABC show returns on Monday, September, 22nd.

Here’s the lineup and their dancing partners:

• Toni Braxton, singer, 40, and season one DWTS champ Alec Mazo
• Lance Bass, singer, 29, and Lacey Schwimmer
• Ted McGinley, actor, 50, and Inna Brayer
• Cloris Leachman, actress, 82, and Corky Ballas
• Warren Sapp, former NFL star, 35, and Kym Johnson
• Rocco DiSpirito, chef, 41, and Karina Smirnoff
• Kim Kardashian, TV personality, 27, and reigning DWTS champ Mark Ballas
• Maurice Green, Olympic gold medalist track and field star, 34, and two-time DWTS champ Cheryl Burke
• Misty May-Treanor, Olympic gold medalist beach volleyball player, 31, and Maksim Chmerkovskiy
• Susan Lucci, Emmy-award winning soap opera actress, 61, and Tony Dovolani
• Jeffrey Ross, 42, comedian, and Edyta Sliwinska
• Cody Linley, 18, actor, and two-time DWTS champ Julianne Hough
• Brooke Burke, 36, TV personality, and Derek Hough

Wow, Cloris Leachman, at 82 is the oldest ever contestant on Dancing with the Stars! I remember her best from shows like Mary Tyler Moore! I took a peak at her filmography and she’s been active in films and television shows from the 1940’s right up until the present. In fact she’s in three post production movies due out in 2008 and 2009. Good for her!





List of competitors for Dancing with the Stars

by

Are you a fan of ABC’s Dancing with the stars? If you are I bet that you’ve been eagerly waiting to find out who’s going to be on the show when the series begins once more.

Well I won’t keep you in suspense. Here’s the list:

• Melanie “Mel B” Brown, 32, Spice Girls (“Scary Spice”) singer (pro partner: Maksim Chmerkovskiy);

• Sabrina Bryan, 22, actress/singer (The Cheetah Girls) (pro partner: Mark Ballas);

• Helio Castroneves, 32, racecar driver (pro partner: Julianne Hough);

• Mark Cuban, 48, businessman (owner of NBA’s Dallas Mavericks) (pro partner: Kym Johnson);

• Jennie Garth, 35, actress (Beverly Hills, 90210) (pro partner: Derek Hough, older brother of Julianne Hough);

• Josie Maran, 29, supermodel (pro partner Alec Mazo);

• Cameron Mathison, 38, actor (All My Children) (pro partner: Edyta Sliwinska;

• Floyd Mayweather, Jr., 30, boxer (pro partner: Karina Smirnoff);

• Wayne Newton, 65, singer (pro partner: Cheryl Burke);

• Marie Osmond, 47, singer/doll designer (pro partner: Jonathan Roberts);

• Albert Reed, 22, supermodel (pro partner: Anna Trebunskaya; and

• Jane Seymour, 56, actress (pro partner: Tony Dovolani).

Wayne Newton? Hmm that should be interesting.

The show returns on September 24th with a new format. When the show debuts it will air on three consecutive nights in it’s first week, and then in the remaining competition weeks the show will air on Monday and Tuesday nights.

I’m not really a fan of the show. Don’t hit me! It’s just never interested me. So, while you guys are watching the show I just hope that the regular shows that I want to watch aren’t affected to badly by this schedule.

Applegate’s divorce final

by

It’s been confirmed that Christina Applegate’s divorce from her husband Johnathon Schaech, actor, has been finalized.

The couple were married for four years, but were possibly not together that whole time as the decision to end their marriage took place in December 2005.

Schaech, 37, had cited irreconcilable differences. The split seems to have occurred without the usual divorce squabbles that we often hear about. Applegate is apparently worth about 6 million while Schaech is worth 2 million. They didn’t bicker over splitting property although he asked for custody of his cement Buddha.

Christina Applegate is set to appear in a new television show this fall called “Samantha Who?” on ABC. She’s most famous for her role as Kelly Bundy in Married with Children.

Paris to interview with Larry King

by

So it really does look like Paris Hilton will be getting out of jail sometime tomorrow.

It’s said that her first interview will be with Larry King. There were rumors that 1st NBC was purchasing an interview, then 2nd that ABC was going to get the honor … perhaps with Barbara Walters.

For some reason she’s chosen Larry King.

Any bets on what time of day Paris will get released or if she’ll even get out tomorrow? Perhaps she’ll be released late this evening?

Who knows?

Rosie will stick around

Page Six is reporting that Rosie O’Donnell is going to stay with “The View” for at least the next year. When her contract with ABC ends this August she’ll sign on for one more year.

There’s been talk of her leaving to start a new show, but since it’s too late to start a new one for September this year she’ll stay with “The View”.

The addition of Rose to the show has increased the shows ratings. Page six also says that Rosie wants executive producer Bill Geddie out, but a rep for the show says “There is not one detail of this that is accurate.”
