The lineup for Season 35 of the popular show “Dancing With The Stars” has been officially revealed. A mix of well-known personalities will be swapping their regular roles for the dance floor in pursuit of the coveted mirror-ball trophy.
Prior to the announcement on “Good Morning America,” Maura Higgins, Ciara Miller, Jackson Olson, and Guillermo Rodriguez were confirmed as part of the cast. The roster expanded with twelve more stars unveiled on the ABC morning show, including familiar faces like Julia Stiles and Jenna Dewan.
The upcoming season promises an eclectic mix of participants, ranging from Hollywood heavyweights to social media influencers, Olympians, Paralympians, and even unconventional choices like a baseball player from the Savannah Bananas team. The show is set to premiere on Sept. 15 and 16 on Disney+ in Canada.
Each star has been paired with a professional dancer for the competition, creating exciting partnerships for viewers to anticipate. Some notable pairings include Tatyana Ali with Jan Ravnik, Tyler Cameron with Sharna Burgess, and Giada De Laurentiis with Alan Bersten.
Fans have shared mixed reactions to the lineup, especially with seasoned dancers like Jenna Dewan and Harry Shum Jr. joining the cast. While some view their experience as a significant advantage, others feel it may overshadow the competition for newcomers.
Additionally, the upcoming season brings new elements to the show, including Adele Zaikman, the winner of “Dancing With The Stars: The Next Pro,” making her debut as a professional dancer. Hailey Bills also steps up as a pro this season, creating a potential family rivalry as she is the niece of pro dancer Jenna Johnson, who is married to Val Chmerkovskiy.
