"DWTS#9 Cast Speculation"
Posted by Snidget on 06-17-09 at 11:24 AM
As the summer begins to wax we will start getting some information of various sorts (we want them, they want us, gee wouldn't it be swell) about who might be hoofing it with the pros in the fall.

Lets gather the info here to see if we are all tossing our TVs so we won't risk seeing someone, or who we can't wait to see.

According to The Enquirer spy, the 29-year-old Milwaukee native will dedicate his run on Dancing to the memoy of his late wife, Sophia, who passed away of cogenital heart failure just four weeks before Danny auditioned for Idol.

*TWITCH*

I keep hoping that is just his wishful thinking, not something real.

Along the AI theme, I have found Sanjaya pretty interesting on the Celebrity show. I think he would give dancing his all and wouldn't have problems with letting loose!

Read in my daily paper that the bodybuilding champion turned actor, who starred in The Incredible Hulk, will be doing DWTS this fall.

He's got to be getting up there in age by now, don't you think? Does anyone know how old he really is? I mean, Incredible Hulk was out in the late '70's, and I'd say he was probably in his late 20's, early 30's then. So, well, maybe he's more like late 50's, early 60's. So, not that bad, They've had worse.

I really hope they don't pull a Cloris Leachman this year, with another 80-something/someone who barely knows where they are, just for the sake of honoring them.

According to wiki, Lou is 57. I am sure he has lost a lot of the bulk from in his bodybuilding prime, but I still think this will be a hindrance for dancing. The NFL guys who have done this show and who had bulk were all noted for their fast foot speed. I am not sure that Lou also has fast foot speed.

The other thing I recall about Lou is that he is partially deaf. I guess Marlee Matlin did the show, but this is another obstacle.

He was also training Michael Jackson at the time of his death to get him in shape for his comeback shows. I remember him more as the neighbor on King of Queens.

Who?

"RE: Ashley Hamilton"
Posted by vince3 on 08-12-09 at 02:26 PM
Son of SuperTan (George Hamilton, who competed in 2006) and Alana Stewart (competed on the 2003 (ABC?) season of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!)

Apparently also was on NBC's Sunset Beach, and at one time was married to each of Shannen Doherty and Angie Everhart...

And on what planet does that make him a "star"?
"RE: Ashley Hamilton"
Posted by vince3 on 08-12-09 at 02:53 PM
the same planet that NBC was allowed to call Spiedi celebrities?

Also heard LaToya Jackson and Dean McDermot, Tori Spellings husband are possibilities.

Of course, Paula Abdul's name is being thrown about.

Also heard that they are adding more couples and doing 3 weeks of double eliminations, so there will be the need for more pros. Possibly some more SYTYCD alums.

It is pretty interesting the way the pros are basically ignored on that awful dance show "Dance your ##### Off." They are certainly not treated like celebrities like they are on DWTS.

Plus, his half brother Sean (son of Rod Stewart, same mother) was on Celebrity Rehab. It seems like the son's substance abuse issues was something that bonded Alana Stewart and Farrah Fawcett.
