Dancing With the Stars isn’t set to premiere on ABC until September 20, but fans are impatiently waiting for the show’s 30th (yes, really!) season to drop already. Hey, we need something to watch after Bachelor in Paradise season seven wraps up for the year, amirite or amirite?
Perhaps the most fun part about Dancing With the Stars—well, aside from actually watching the show, of course—is theorizing about all the glitzy celebs who willingly signed up for publicly televised torture several weeks of dance training in the hopes of winning the coveted Mirrorball trophy. We have some theories for season 30 already, so let’s get into it!
Chris Harrison
Chris is still laying low after receiving that hefty check for leaving The Bachelor franchise following his controversial comments about Rachael Kirkconnell. That doesn’t mean he’s gone for good, though—a source reportedly told RadarOnline that Chris was approached to appear on the show and he mistakenly thought it was for a hosting gig. “He was a little upset when he realized Tyra [Banks] wanted him as a contestant, but after he got over his bruised ego, Chris didn’t say no,” the source said. Take this with a giant grain of salt, but it’s an interesting rumor nonetheless.
Fran Drescher
No one else could bring life to Dancing With the Stars quite like Fran Drescher could. I mean…just imagine the costumes they’d give her! She’s allegedly at the top of producers’ cast wish list for the upcoming season, and I hope to God this pans out.
Hilaria Baldwin
This one is…a choice, but the tabloids are convinced Hilaria is interested in hopping to DWTS, according to OK! Magazine. The whole scandal surrounding Hilaria lying about being of Spanish descent is reportedly “TV gold for Tyra Banks and Dancing With the Stars. Tyra has made the show exciting again and isn’t afraid to cast controversial people on it.”
Tayshia Adams and Zac Clark
Tayshia is already booked and busy considering she’ll be hosting Michelle Young’s season of The Bachelorette, so TBD if she’ll actually be able to appear on the show. Zac, on the other hand, expressed interest in possibly doing the show during an appearance on Cheryl Burke’s Pretty Messed Up podcast. “After AJ [McLean] explained it, how do you say no?” he said. “Ten years ago I had a needle in my arm, and now I’m sitting here talking to you guys about all these crazy experiences. That doesn’t happen to just anyone.”
Kellyanne Conway
Again…a choice! Kellyanne first made headlines after being Donald Trump’s campaign manager (and for publicly feuding with her daughter Claudia, who wishes to be emancipated). According to OK!, “Tyra and the other executives are split down the middle. Some think Kellyanne would be great; others think she is too divisive for a show that appeals to both Democrats and Republicans.”
LeAnn Rimes
LeAnn killed it during The Masked Singer last year, so why wouldn’t producers at ABC want her for a reality TV show of their own?
Brian Austin Green
Brian was supposed to appear on DWTS *last* season but he had to pull out of the show unexpectedly and was then replaced by Jesse Metcalfe. He is dating DWTS pro Sharna Burgess at the moment, so he’d like have to pair up with someone else since she’s had a hard rule about not dating her dance partners!
Kamaru Usman
UFC fighters don’t only dance in the ring, y’all! Kamaru told TMZ Sports that he would be super open to joining the cast of DWTS and said, “I do my thing! That’s the thing with me, I understand that practice makes perfect and I’m disciplined enough to be able to train at it. So anything, if I need to work at it, do the moves, learn ’em, boom! I’m in there! I can get down.”
Luann de Lesseps
This Real Housewives of New York City star is often cited as one of the greatest housewives of all time, so let’s she if she gets to bring it to the dance floor this year!
