The Official Dancing with the Stars 8 Cast
The official lineup for Dancing With the Stars was announced tonight during ABC’s Sunday lineup.
And while tabloids have leaked erroneous names over the past few years, it appears they’ve rounded up better sources this time around. It also turns out that Donny Osmond wasn’t lying when he said he was lying about competing. (Get that?)
For the show’s eighth installment, we’ll once again start off with an uneven 13 contestants. (This meant a Week 1 double-elimination last fall.) We’ll also see the series’ youngest performer to date. (Even younger than Season 7’s Cody Linley.) You can check out the full list of names after the jump.
- David Alan Grier: Comedian
- Gilles Marini: Sex and the City movie hottie
- Ty Murray: Rodeo star, Jewel’s husband
- Steve-O: Jackass star
- Lawrence Taylor: NFL Hall of Famer
- Chuck Wicks: Country singer, Julianne Hough’s beau
- Steve Wozniak: Apple co-founder, Kathy Griffin ex
Ladies
- Belinda Carlisle: Go-Go’s lead singer
- Jewel: Singer, Ty Murray’s wife
- Shawn Johnson: 17-year-old Olympic gymnast
- Lil’ Kim: Rapper/singer
