Official Dancing With the Stars (cast revealed)

[mandy200587]

I heard something about Jewel having a problem with her foot. Who is Holly?

Jewels had tendinitis in the knee from what I heard. Holly Madison is a former Playboy, was on Girls Next Door. Dated Criss Angel.

Will this be the "official" DWTS thread? Subscribing.

So Jewel may be out? And Holly is in? Is she still w/Chris Angel?

YEAH....MONDAY!!!!

Holly and Chris have split.

I'll be watching, who I'm rooting for I'm unsure.

I will always be behind on DWTS since I have dance class on Monday. I am interested to see what happens with Jewel. They hyped the husband/wife thing and now it's kaput.

 

[mandy200587]

Jewels camp isn't confirming or denying as of right now it's nothing but a rumor about her leaving.

 

[mandy200587]

Her label just confirmed she will be dancing Monday.

Jewel has a blog, and according to it, she's dancing.

Singer Jewel and Access Hollywood host Nancy O’Dell are withdrawing from participating in Dancing with the Stars, ABC announced Thursday.
Both women have suffered knee injuries during rehearsals in recent weeks. Jewel was diagnosed with a fractured tibia in both legs, while O’Dell has a torn meniscus that will require surgery.
“Though we share in their disappointment that they can no longer continue, their physical well-being takes precedent above all else. We thank them both for giving it their all and wish them a quick and full recovery,” Dancing Executive Producer Conrad Green said in a press release.
Their replacements will be announced on the season eight premiere on Monday, March 9 on ABC. –Monica Rizzo

Wow....I wonder if Holly will be in for sure and who else??

Apparently Holly is taking over for Jewel. Though another article about Nancy says replacements have yet to be announced.

From Yahoo:
The bunny hop is coming to Dancing With the Stars

Sources confirm that Girl Next Door Holly Madison will replace Jewel in the new season of ABC's hit reality competition show.

I'm told that the Jewel-Madison switcheroo happened pretty quickly, too.

Madison agreed to join the celeb dance-off on Monday, and by yesterday she was already rehearsing at an L.A. studio with partner Dmitry Chaplin

Although Jewel insisted that a case of tendinitis in her knees would not sideline her, doctors have apparently told the songbird to hang up her dancing shoes.

Reps for Madison, Jewel and ABC declined to comment.

The gig could be just the thing for Madison right now to help get her mind off of ex-boyfriend Criss Angel

She and the Mindfreak showman split in late February. Madison had spent most of the last four months in Las Vegas to be by his side, but she returned to L.A. late last month as a single woman.

[Kirby]

Melissa from the Bachelor is replacing Nancy

 

[Kirby]

You're kidding, right?

 

[mandy200587]

nope thats what people is reporting

 

[happygirl]

Melissa will do great She was a dancer with the Cowboys. This acutally might make they sure enjoyable. The cast was boring this season

 

[Mean Queen]

Melissa from the Bachelor is replacing Nancy

Wow. I guess the word celebrity is being very liberally applied to this show. I thought Kim Kardashian was scraping the bottom, but this is worse.

 

[minniecarousel]

For a last minute replacement, I think Melissa is a good choice. She's "in the (celebrity) news" right now. So, it makes sense.

I agree, I'm looking forward to seeing Melissa on the show.
