The new batch of celebrities to compete on the new season of Dancing with the Stars has been announced. Chaz Bono, formerly known as Chastity Bono (daughter of Cher and Sonny), will be partnered with a female dancer as he continues to undergo a sex change from woman to man. Another celebrity offspring joining the cast is Chynna Phillips, whose parents are John and Michelle Phillips from the Mamas and the Papas. David Arquette and reality stars Rob Kardashian and Kristin Cavallari will join George Clooney‘s ex-girlfriend, Elisabetta Canalis. Talk show host Ricki Lake said she was inspired to join by Kristi Alley‘s appearance on the last season of the show. Former Queer Eye for the Straight Guy star Carson Kressley, Court TV host Nancy Grace, US Soccer Team goalkeeper Hope Solo, soap star J.R. Martinez and L.A. Lakers player Ron Artest round out the line-up. The first show of the new season will air on September 19.

    Another batch of “has beens” hits the dance floor for no other reason then to make a little money and try to get a career back on track or to actually get a career.

    There are things in this world that I don’t understand, people actually watching this show is one of them.

    I have the exact problem with DWTS and agt. They both ruin my tv time and I have sworn not to watch the next seasons. I like the judges on DWTS,but the hosts, mainly Brooke, annoy me. Plus, this show makes people look bad just because they cant dance. I have actually enjoyed comedies like modern family and glee more than ive ever enjoyed most reality shows. Stop the madness and bring back the comedies and dramas.
