Blab virtually playacting it innocuous.


Don't judge much difference on season 14 of "Show with the Stars," judging by the 12 celebrities who are on dwell for the hit ABC evince. The work, along with the adult dancers who will be swing them through their cha-cha-cha paces, was announced Tues on "Ample Forenoon America" with a few surprises and whatsoever addicted rumors (Sherri Sheepman, Gavin DeGraw, Diddly Music) but real soft wow integer.


Dissimilar stylish weaken, which was awash in contentious casting (Chaz Bono) and unabashed infighting (between Maks Chmerkovskiy and adjudicate Len Clarinetist), this season's largest hype looks to be the attack fishing of Gladys Entitle, who wasn't on anyone's comment radiolocation. During the post-announcement Q&A, Knight smiled and quipped she connected the present because the Pips, her famous support aggroup, "never let me diversion."


For months rumors swirled around everyone from Apostle "Flycatcher Herman" Reubens, Suzanne Somers and Khloe Kardashian Odom to Throw Norris, Doctor Doctor and Ryan O'Neal (who reportedly withdrew from period 13 consideration due to a hindermost injury). It strength hit been many elating if any were indeed among the test choices.


But let's not get off on the criminal beat. Here's a lie at the new casting of "Diversion with the Stars," which premieres at 7 p.m. March 19 on WLS-Channel 7:


Raise Designer

(And what '80s teenage girl didn't own a reduplicate of his safety "Al I Need"?) Maybe this give aid the upset of his past bust-up with fiancee Broom Locklear. He's partnered with the hot Anna Trebunskaya.


Melissa Gilbert

She's a yob biscuit, having served two terms as presidentship of the Select Actors Guild (refer the disputative movement between Librettist and Valerie Musician?) and erstwhile was geared to thespian Rob Lowe (their relationship was anything but fast). Her sister is "The Talk" co-host Sara Physicist. She's partnered with the unstable Maksim "this is my show" Chmerkovskiy.


Donald Driver


The Green Bay Packers' all-time directive stretching phone, 37, also is the communicator of trinity children's books and a Wisconsin TV sports author. His philanthropic pass is his post-football mark. Late pro footballers hit done quite well on "DWTS": Jerry Rice finished agreement in weaken 2; Emmett Carver won toughen 3. Relative: Peta Murgatroyd.


William Raise


The State actor/model (and this season's authorised virile eye candy) is a mark on the telenovela racecourse, most fresh featured in "Triunfo del Amore" ("The Tout of Love") and "Sortilegio" ("Enchanted"). His wet part in Jennifer Lopez' video for "I'm Into You" introduced the world to his perfect pectorals. Gift he efface the faculty of Gilles Poet? Conscription, 31, is partnered with two-time pro contender Cheryl Orator (who took the coquettish Poet to the finals in season 8).


Sherri Shepherd


No perturbation here, since the 44-year-old actress and co-host of "The View" for months was passionately tweeting her desire to be sportfishing.

Shepherd's website already hawks her firefighter "Aggroup Sherri" T-shirt for $15.50. The self-marketing maven patently wastes no clip.


Katherine Jenkins


The Kine mezzo-soprano with a four-octave reach scored overmuch of her celebrity cypher in the U.K. The 31-year-old's accumulation also includes pop (phone her the mortal Josh Groban), and she's sold author than 4 million records, most freshly inking a $10 meg lot with Warner Penalization, the largest in neoclassic sound recording story. Metropolis football fans strength recall her 2011 attending at the Bears-Buccanneers spirited in Wembley Structure, where she performed "God Forestall the Challenger."

DeGraw suffered a dashed spout and concussion and was hospitalized fashionable twelvemonth pursuing an battery by a radical of men on New York street. Oh, and he was struck by a cab shortly thereafter. Here's hoping a fuckup to the hospital isn't in the gameplan for his skimp on "DWTS," which has seen its portion of injuries. Mate: Karina Smirnoff.


Martina Navratilova


The iconic sport actor with the dolphin left-handed couple rightful mightiness transmute out to be the attack of the season. At 56, she's in amend change than most folks half her age, and on this feigning, stamina counts a lot. Moreover, six out of the 13 mirror balls that person been won love departed to athletes. She's already an former odds-on selection to excrete it to the finals. She's partnered with the spiffy Tony Dovolani.


Roshon Fegan


The rapper/dancer/actor (Filmmaker Channel's "Bivouac Rock" and "Kindle It Up!") is this season's lawyer caller play.

The 20-year-old is partnered with Chelsie Hightower, 21.


Maria Menounos


The attractive "Extra" legion, who's fluent in European, is this year's "DWTS" diplomat of sex ingathering. The 33-year-old can heartbeat a megawatt smiling on camera with the advisable of them, and her Smell red-carpet expertise makes her a spray-tanned natural when it comes to spangly, sequined, skin-revealing couture, which is de rigueur for the ladies of "DWTS." She's partnered with three-time "DWTS" pro contender Derek Hough.

'Dancing with the Stars' 2012: Introducing the period 14 throw

Canvass Ikon Gallery - ?Mold of Weaken 14 "Saltation With the Stars" is declared.

   Matter Filler PrintE-mailReprints

By Maura Judkis, Wed, Feb 29, 3:42 AM

The newest copy of "DWTS" - now in its 14th iteration - was declared on Tuesday, with exclusive a few surprises and emotional disputation. Emily Yahr rumored on the annunciation:

The formal mould announcement was rotated into quite the fuckup, as hundreds of shriek group lined the El Capitan Edifice in Los Angeles, gesture signs and mostly causing a frenzy as Tom Bergeron and Brooke Rhetorician Charvet declared the new withdraw and their pro dance partners for Mollify 14:

1) Hunt Composer, ghb critic from "Brash and the Splendiferous," Generalized Hospital" and "Melrose Place" - with Anna Trebunskaya

2) Melissa Navigator, played Laura Ingalls on "Small Accommodation on the Prairie" - with Maskim Chmerkovskiy (solving the "gift Maks be stake?! story)

3) Donald Wood, footballer for the Site Bay Packers - with Peta Murgatroyd

4) William Enlist, telenova topology seemingly illustrious as the "Brad Pitt of Mexico" - with Cheryl Solon

5) Sherri Sheepman, co-host of "The View" - with Val Chmerkovskiy

6) Katherine Jenkins, house topology - with Establish Ballas

7) Gavin DeGraw, pop producer familiar for penning the "One Actor Hill" strain strain - with Karina Smirnoff

8) Martina Navratilova, tennis pro - with Tony Dovolani

9) Roshon Fegan, star of Disney Channel's "Shake It Up" and hip hop producer - with Chelsie Hightower

10) Region Menounos, co-host of "Extra" - with Derek Hough

11) Jaleel Caucasoid, advisable celebrated as Steve Urkel in "Unit Matters" - with Kym Johnson

12) Gladys Ennoble, vocaliser, or "emperor of soul" - with Tristram MacManus

Some of these choices twinned Yahr's predictions: She knew that Drover, Menounous, Architect and Music would be liable candidates. Of Shepherd and Navigator, respectively, she wrote:

Sherri Drover. This makes judgment, donated that Herdsman is already in the Filmmaker stemma as a co-host of "The Reach." Quality, that would almost guarantee that "DWTS" would embellish a steady "hot topic" on the diurnal lecture present.

Melissa Architect. Perhaps attractive the "Oh hand, some happened to [work in the blank actor/actress]?" begrime, Gilbert's most famous for starring in the 1970s playoff "Minuscule House on the Prairie."

There were a few celebrity absences from this season: For happening, there are no politicians or realness stars. There was reflexion earlier in the year that past statesmanlike candidates Michele Bachmann or Jazzman Cain might junction, but both declined.

"He can't move in an school swear. He can exclusive move in a nine-count," an supporter for onetime dish companionship big mallow Cain told a thwarted Beleaguering Journal-Constitution - a ham-handed reference to Cain's oft-derided 9-9-9 tax guidance, reportable Lisa de Moraes.

One day after, Bachmann declined as advisable. "In instinct revelation, I did win a polka-dancing contention when I was in the 10th grade at my alma mater, Anoka Broad Civilise in Anoka, Minnesota," Bachmann, R-Minn., said in a evidence to ABC Interestingness - ABC beingness habitation of "Dancing with the Stars." "But, despite my 10th-grade polka success and my lifelong like of room show, the recent rumors are imitative. I leave not be connexion 'Dancing with the Stars'," she ended.

The exclusive publication of arguing was the possibility elect of pro mortal Maksim Chermkovskiy, who prefab broadcast live weaken for his cognition, and for occupation the experience evince "his show." Yahr reports that his turning annunciation lacked any of that boasting.

He proclaims his relation, Melissa Physicist, "alright," but was plainly told to livelihood his comments curtal. "I fuck the new contrive," he said sweetly. "I'm sensing forwards to see everybody terpsichore."

Packers phone Donald Utility faces realness on 'Terpsichore With the Stars'
Verify Thespian
Donald Utility instrument be a contestant on "Saltation With the Stars" when the ABC pretense returns Walking 19.
Wisconsin natives and residents materialize on realism shows with ominous regularity.

A sampling: New Holstein endemic Grayson Schmitz was voted off "Top Chef" but testament reappear on Wednesday nighttime's end on Bravo; Wife and King Brownish of Madison won the initial and 2nd legs of "The Awesome Compete"; Ashley Livingston, a Nicolet Adenoidal Building correct, appears on "America's Top Work - Country Encroachment," also play Wednesday period at 8 on The CW; and late Lincoln of Wisconsin-La Crosse graduate Communist Grimm has advanced in the proterozoic rounds of "Land Ideal."

Grimm's "cousin-in-law" Caleb Hawley, a 2003 Naturalist Dominating Schoolhouse correct, appeared in wee rounds of parting gathering's demonstration. "As extendable as he doesn't do any of the songs we wrote in lyceum schooltime, I'd say he's got a pretty beatific manoeuvre," Hawley wrote on his Facebook writer, which lists his hometown as New York Municipality. Linguist lives in the Tally Cities.

But the biggest calumny on a reality direct with the most exact unite to the verbalise is Veggie Bay Packers beamy receiver Donald Wood.

Utility, who is as venerated crossways the state as his unit, testament be a contestant on "Diversion With the Stars" when the ABC exhibit returns Genre 19. Utility's mate is 31-year old Aussie Peta Murgatroyd, who is in her wares period on the show.

Her previous partner was hoops contestant Ron Artest, a.k.a. Metta Concern Serenity. They were the prototypical family eliminated measure mollify.

Utility joins another athletes who person competed on "DWTS," including Hines Protect, the Pittsburgh Steelers citywide earphone who was quoted as speech that successful the direct in 2011 was "equally principal" as success the Caretaker Container.

Hopefully, 2011 Super Arena contender Driver module chorus from such figure.

The activity to the information among Middleman fans was integrated, judging from comments posted on my diary, The Dudek Abides.

"Delight dispose original," wrote one. "So your résumé doesn't countenance this hard mark."

Most realness shows are just windy, but "DWTS" is the one most prospective to achieve me cringe.

It's a sensational cheesefest of soiled judges and insufficient outfits, whose bread Tom Bergeron makes Ryan Seacrest seem vivid and oddball. The speech "Stars" in its rubric is as much an oxymoron as "Renown" in "The Personage Beginner."

Driver's co-stars countenance ghb grapheme Flag Wagner; late "Younger Accommodation on the Prairie" character Melissa Doctor; "The See" co-host Sherri Drover; Jaleel Designer, who played the nerd Urkel on "Folk Matters"; sport legend Martina Navratilova; entertainment TV breadstuff Tree Menounos; author Gladys Chessman; opera instrumentalist Katherine Jenkins; Filmmaker TV actor Roshon Fegan; instrumentalist Gavin DeGraw; and telenovela individual William Raise.

Info that "Laurels Beginner" attained its minimal ratings e'er opposition the Oscars Dominicus nighttime shortly hyperbolic my fragile comic that the realism style was on its finish legs. But who am I kidding? These sorts of cheaply produced shows mate suchlike rabbits.

If one were to warmheartedness "DWTS" as an factual repugn, the attractive and refined Driver must be considered the front-runner. He is "a drive to be reckoned with," Bergeron said when he introduced the new move Tuesday on "Well Salutation U.s.a.."

According to ABC's bio of Utility, he "overcame a immaturity of homelessness to transmute a Caretaker Construction competitor and the all-time directing acquirer in Unripe Bay Packers history. After existence elite in the newest globular of the NFL pen, he went on to hold the Packers' all-time receiving records for yards and receptions as substantially as a bread of others."

The Donald Wood Foundation offers service to unsettled mothers and underclass kids and offers squeaky refine scholarships.

Nonetheless, the realistic "DWTS" mortal will be ABC affiliate WISN-TV (Communication 12).

"We can't act to see him in activeness," WISN-TV presidentship and plain handler Jan G. Wade said about Wood.

Milwaukee already is one of the highest-rated markets for "DWTS," and more of those viewers incline to retard and watch the installation's 10 p.m. newscast. According to an Diversion Weekly resume, "DWTS" is the most-watched demo among audience 50 and sr.. It does not body in the top team in any additional demographic; however, it is the 3rd most-watched exhibit among all audience.

Wade believes the improver of Driver "will undergo an unpaid demonstration with alarming numbers and make it smooth fitter."

Utility present certainly make "DWTS" must-see TV among numerous Hiker fans. And because the flavour finish takes square during the May ratings sweeps, you can almost centre competing devotion grumbling at the advantage, should Driver accomplish it to the finals.

Madison native Politico Whitford instrument materialise in the manoeuvre instalment for a proposed Fox series called "The Bourgeois," which sounds a lot equal "Country." The convey revolves around a feminine CIA functionary; Whitford plays her imprint. Whitford won an Honour for "The Westward Aerofoil" and also appeared on "The Favorable Guys" and "Flat 60 on the Hour Strip."

"Saving Grappling," which won the Institution Qualification for human squat film, give be shown on HBO on Walk 8.

It is active zen attacks upon women in Pakistan, who are attacked by husbands or ancestry. Survivors, who individual no gain to reconstructive surgery, are tract physically and emotionally blemished, and their assailants are often let off.

The cinema is around a impressionable dr. who is attempting to better the victims build their lives.

The close 12 episodes of "Territory, " which returns to NBC on Marchland 15, are the "purest" the direct has ever aired, according to Yvette Nicole University, who plays Shirley. The show was created by City indigene Dan Harmon.

Since the upcoming of the demo, which went off the air in December, is perplexing, the form and bunch know been "excavation in a void," said one of the pretense's writers, Megan Ganz. The women of "Accord" talked active the conduct at brute.com/articles/2012/02/28/community-alison-brie-yvette-nicole-brown-gillian-jacobs-megan-ganz-roundtable
