On Good Morning America this morning they revealed the new cast of Dancing with the Stars. The hit ABC show will be airing September 22, with Tom Bergeron and Samantha Harris.
Here is the season 7 cast of Dancing with the Stars:
Olympic Gold Medal Skater, Kristi Yamaguchi, is the second woman of the six seasons of Dancing With The Stars, to win the mirror ball trophy. The first being soap opera star Kelly Monaco in the first season of the show.
Kristi and partner Mark Ballas truly deserved to win since they have been amazing to watch all season long. They held nothing back and scored all 10s on their last three dances. This was the first time that a three dance sweep of perfect scores were earned by a team in DWTS finale history.
The charming runner-up, Jason Taylor, and his partner Edyta Silwinski told the host Samantha Harris that “Kristi very much deserves it.” The camaraderie and competition between Jason and Kristi was great entertainment to watch throughout the season and on last night’s finale show Jason’s final dance finally earned him 3 perfect 10s from the judges and he shouted to Kristi, “Hey Kristi, it does feel good!”
Finishing in third place was Latin hottie Cristian de la Fuente and his partner Cheryl Burke. Christian has been amazing in his last 3 weeks of dancing–dancing with just one arm since he’d torn his tendon on his left arm a few weeks ago and couldn’t put any stress on that arm–you could hardly tell he was injured. Oh, and he’s oh so hot too–did I mention that?
Check out the Kristi and Marc’s winning free style dance…
Marissa Jaret Winokur and her partner Tony Dovolani finally got voted off DWTS. I would have gagged if they actually made it to the finals. I don’t know how Marissa made it to the semi-finals. She is not a very elegant dancer and I didn’t find her dancing entertaining at all.
Before the final goodbye dance, always bubbly Winokur said, “It’s been incredible! No one expected us to get this far…[Tony] has worked so hard with me. This has been such an incredible experience.”
With Marissa and Tony gone, that leaves three couples in the finals: Kristi Yamaguchi and Mark Ballas, Jason Taylor and Edyta Sliwinska, and Cristian de la Fuente and Cheryl Burke. Although I am not sure who it is yet, may the best couple win.
Ok! magazine reports that Usher has been lined up to perform on the season finale of Dancing With The Stars.
He has reportedly even asked Mario’s partner, Karina Smirnoff, to be his dance partner even though she was recently booted off. Three female dancers from DWTS will also perform in the number.
R&B singer Mario and his partner Karina Smirnoff were voted off DWTS last night. I didn’t think that the pair could win the competition but I think that they should have stayed at least for another week. That Marissa girl really needs to go home. Her dancing is not elegant at all.
“I’ve had a great time performing on the show. I had a great partner,” Mario said,making sure to give props to his partner, as well as a making a shout-out to “the real brave ones”—the U.S. troops stationed in the Middle East.
“Len, thank you for all your comments,” he said graciously to the man who yesterday told him he had “bloody big, ugly” feet. “Ultimately, you helped me become a better ballroom dancer.”
Shannon Elizabeth and Derek Hough appeared on Good Morning America this morning, April 30th, after their Dancing With the Stars elimination.
But, of course, that was not all they talked about.
Both mentioned that they wanted to travel to take advantage of the free time they’ll have now that they are out of the running. When asked if they were planning to travel together, they just smiled and said nothing.
Then this pops up on the screen:
A photo of the “dance” partners practicing the Tonsil Tango on Malibu Beach on April 17th.
And that point, the couple knew there was no denying their non-platonic relationship, or “showmance.” After a moment of awkward laughter, Derek simply states, “there’s your answer.”
There you have it, another failed attempt at trying to hide a celeb romance.
FYI… In case you were curious, Shannon is 34 and Derek is barely ripe at age 22.

Last night on Dancing With The Stars, Christian de la Fuente suffered from a “muscle cramp” while dancing the samba with his partner, Cheryl Burke.
Towards the end of the dance, Christian grabs his arm and tries desperately to go on. Cheryl has no idea that he is hurt and goes down to do a dip and ends up falling on the floor and as she reaches for Christian, she pulls him down with her. Not realizing, still, that her partner’s hurt grabs him to help her off the floor. Christian looks at her like “stupid bitch I’m hurt and I’m having a hard enough time getting myself off of you, how am I suppose to help you up?”
Here is a clip of Christian and Cheryl’s samba last night. Fast forward to 1:20 to see this drama go down.
Julianne Hough, Dancing with the Stars‘ young beauty, and now, recording artist, has partnered with Dr. Scholl’s to raise money for Clothes Off Our Back Foundation, a charity dedicated to helping children. From now to May 7th, fans and shoe fanatics alike can log onto www.greatforthesole.com to bid on a pair of sexy dancing shoes worn by Julianne on Dancing with the Stars, as well as shoes worn by current and former celebrities from the show.
Kinda makes your toothache, huh? Not only is she young, hot, and amazingly talented… she also supports charitable causes. Pfft, show-off.
The oldest celebrity contestant this season, Priscilla Presley, 62, wasn’t able to dazzle the judges or the voters this time around and was sent home last night.
On Monday, Priscilla and partner Louis Van Amstel received a 21 out of 30 and was told by head judge Len Goodman, “It lacked spontaneity for me. It was too careful. I was disappointed with the performance.”
Priscilla left in good spirits saying, “This has been an incredible experience. It is life-changing. … I learned so much about myself and all the things I can do.”
Although I watch the program every week, I’m really not a huge fan of Dancing With The Stars; but, I must admit that I am very disappointed that Adam Corolla was voted off. Yeah he is not the most suave dancer, but I so would’ve sent home Priscilla Presley or Marissa Jaret Winokur waaaaaay before Adam. I’m going to miss him and Julianne Hough dance.
When asked about his experience on DWTS, Adam said:
“I had the time of my life. I lost 20 pounds of fat, and I gained 105 pounds of angel. I love this girl!” Carolla said, referring to partner Julianne Hough, who had a two-season winning streak up to this point.
“I recommend this experience to everyone who’s scared of everything. If something scares you…embrace it,” he added. “Don’t run from it—do it!”
But now, “I’m going to dance my way right to the buffet.”
