ABC and producers of ‘Dancing With The Stars‘ said that they want to try get more A-listers for the new season of the show but looking at the leaked list of this years cast it looks like they failed.
DWTSGossip have Tweeted what they say are the 12 celebrities who will compete in the show, which is now going in to it’s thirteenth season.
The list looks like this: Nancy Grace, Kristin Cavalleri, Riki Lake, Chynna Phillips, Hope Solis, Elizabetta Canalis. David Arquette, Rob Kardashian, Ryan O’Neal, Jr. Martinez, Chaz Bono and Ron Artest.
Grace will apparently follow the steps of Kate Gosselin and practice in Atlanta, where she met her dance partner for the first time last week, and then fly to Los Angeles once a week for the live show.
The new seasons starts on September 19th on ABC, I guess we will have to wait til next season for those A-listers. Seriously are producers that delusional to think they would get big names for this show?
“Dancing With The Stars” co-host, Brooke Burke and longtime boyfriend David Charvet were reportedly married Friday in St. Barts.
Burke began dating Charvet, who starred on “Baywatch” and the original “Melrose Place,” in 2005 and they were engaged in 2006. Engaged for FIVE years.
The couple has two children together: Rain, 4, and Shaya, 3. Burke also has two children, Neriah, 11, and Sierra, 9, with ex-husband Garth Fisher.
The “Dancing With The Stars” Season 7 winner revealed in Redbook’s July 2011 issue that while their family keeps her more than busy, she and Charvet try to make time for themselves too.
“David and I make sure to escape once a week. So maybe on a Sunday night, we’ll go out to dinner at a favorite Malibu restaurant. Or at home we get the candles, the music — the whole deal — and we close the bedroom door. We have a rule in our house that you have to knock on closed doors. Someday the kids might be like, ‘I smell the candles, I hear Maxwell playing…’ but thank God they’re not old enough to figure that out yet.”
The theme of the week is “Guilty Pleasures” on ‘Dancing with the Stars‘. Kendra Wilkinson and her partner Louis Van Amstel embraced that theme in more than just their music selection.
She also brought stripper moves and big breasts. The only thing missing really, was a stripper pole.
At one point, she was on the judges’ table shaking everything she had right above Len Goodman, who was leaning back in a mixture of surprise and happiness. He almost had a heart attack.
“The more you gyrated, the more I palpitated,” he said. “And you fulfilled one of my guilty pleasures,” he said of her performance directly above his seat. It was certainly a memorable birthday moment for the judge.
After weeks of people cracking jokes about Maksim Chemerkosivy dancing with Kristie Alley, his legs finally gave in and he dropped her to the floor while they were dancing to Somewhere Over The Rainbow (too easy).
Look at the video closely because you can clearly see the exact moment when his legs give in and his face shows whats coming. Kristie took to her Twitter account this morning to write:
“woke up to all of your supportive tweets..humbled..It’s good to know that u are in this game with us come RAIN or come SHINE….thank u, Maks is too humble.. we all know it takes TWO to Tango..on our feet or on our asses…it takes TWO ..I will do better from now on…xoxo”
I can’t wait to see what George Lopez has to say about this after calling her a pig not too long ago.
Bristol Palin really wants to be a role model, you guys!
During the taping of “Dancing With The Stars”, Bristol was referred to as a “teen activist”. She also filmed a PSA with The Situation, urging people to practice safe sex. Keith Olbermann took offense to Bristol and nailed her on his show (not literally), calling her his Worst Person In The World.
Recently, a left wing commentator named Keith Olbermann attacked me for being a spokesperson for abstinence education and for being an Ambassador for the Candies Foundation, which promotes teen pregnancy awareness and prevention education. He went so far as to call me “the worst person” he knows, apparently, for my efforts to educate teenagers about the real world risks of premarital sex.
Accusing me of hypocrisy is by now, an old canard. What Mr. Olbermann lacks in originality he makes up for with insincere incredulity. Mr. Olbermann fails to understand that in order to have credibility as a spokesperson, it sometimes takes a person who has made mistakes. Parents warn their children about the mistakes they made so they are not repeated. Former gang members travel to schools to educate teenagers about the risks of gang life. Recovered addicts lecture to others about the risks of alcohol and drug abuse. And yes, a teen mother talks about the benefits of preventing teen pregnancy.
I have never claimed to be perfect. If that makes me the “worst person in the world” to Mr. Olbermann, then I must apologize for not being absolutely faultless like he undoubtedly must be.
To Mr. Olbermann let me say this: you can attack me all you want. But you will not stop me from getting my message out about teen pregnancy prevention. And one day, if you ever have a daughter, you may change your mind about me.
Bristol Palin
CANARD?!?? She did NOT write this. She couldn’t have. It sounds like something Mama Grizzly had concocted so her daughter wouldn’t be perceived as an idiot.

Like most Americans, Steven Cowan has been perplexed by Bristol Palin’s curious ability to keep advancing in TV’s “Dancing with the Stars” competition.
However, unlike other viewers, Cowan, 66, allegedly became so enraged by Palin’s success that he actually fired a shotgun round into his television, triggering a 15-hour standoff with Wisconsin cops.
According to a criminal complaint, Cowan’s wife called police Monday evening to report that her husband had blasted the TV and was threatening to kill himself. Cowan, who had been drinking, became angry while watching Palin, 20, perform on the ABC program.
As Palin was dancing, Cowan “jumped up and swore, saying something to the effect of, ‘The fucking politics.’ Steven was upset that a political figure’s daughter was dancing on this particular show when Steven did not think that she was a good dancer,” the complaint notes.
Janice Cowan told Dane County Sheriff’s Office deputies that she called 911 after her husband blasted the TV and then pointed the shotgun at her. She added that Cowan warned her that he would kill himself if she brought anyone back to their home in the town of Vermont.
After a lengthy standoff with cops, Cowan surrendered yesterday at 11 AM. He is facing disorderly conduct and weapons charges.
He was sitting in the Dane County jail last night when Palin landed a spot in the “Dancing with the Stars” finals. However, a sheriff’s spokesperson told TSG that Cowan “currently does not have access to television.”

The Season 11 premiere of ‘Dancing With the Stars‘ was a situation, all right.
Florence Henderson took a page from Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino‘s playbook during Monday’s premiere, lifting her shirt to reveal a white bra (and matching abs) to viewers during a taped segment on the show.
“Mama Brady flashed her boobies on our show tonight!” judge Carrie Ann Inaba said after the two-hour premiere.
“So, what do you give me?” Henderson, 76, asked the judge.
No seriously, what do you give her?
Judges didn’t hand out any perfect 10s during Monday’s show, but they did give three 8s to ‘Dirty Dancing’ star Jennifer Grey, making her the night’s top scorer with 24 points out of 30. The actress and her professional partner, Derek Hough, performed a Viennese waltz to a song featured in ‘Dirty Dancing’ that moved Inaba to tears.
The pair was pleased with their performance, but Hough said scores weren’t on their minds. “Tonight we don’t think about scores, first or front-runner,” he said. “Tonight was just special. We got to dance to a song that is so iconic.”
There was another tie at the bottom of the judges’ leaderboard: Comedian Margaret Cho, reality star Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino and actor-singer David Hasselhoff all landed in last place with 15 points each.
Sorrentino had only five days to practice the cha-cha with professional partner Karina Smirnoff, and judges said the performance lacked polish. Tonioli said he saw in the dance “a very, very faint thing that may or may not be talent.” But head judge Len Goodman told the famously muscular ‘Jersey Shore’ star: “You’ve got the guns, but not the ammunition.”
Sarah Palin wasn’t on hand to cheer for daughter Bristol, who danced a cha-cha to Three Dog Night’s ‘Mama Told Me (Not To Come).’ But the former vice-presidential candidate did give her some advice before the show, Palin said: “She just told me to be confident, smile and have fun.”
For today’s top ten celebrity quotes, we’ve got January Jones talking about Jason Sudeikis seeing her naked, David Hasselhoff talking about his abs and Jane Lynch’s proud jealousy over her “Glee” castmates. Enjoy!!

My thoughts on the above quotes? Jane Lynch is hilarious. Paris Hilton is a special kind of stupid. So is Ke$ha, just plain dumb. And The Hoff is overrated.
