'Dancing with the Stars' season 21 spoilers; interesting cast rumors
Everyone's favorite hit reality competition is back for an all-new season. "Dancing with the Stars" is a dancing competition that features celebrities, personalities, and athletes alike and pairs them up with a professional dancer for the duration of the show to tackle various genres of dance.
In the forthcoming season, fans will still see hosts Tom Bergernon and Erin Andrews on the dance floor. Meanwhile, all the judges are set to return. Len Goodman, Bruno Tonioli, Julianne Hough, and Carrie Ann Inaba will all be back. The show's professional dancers will all be back, as well. Peta Murgatroyd and Artem Chigvintsev can be seen dancing in the promotional posters of the series.
The new season's cast is being kept under wraps until the show airs, but there are some rumors as to who will join. Bachelorette's Kaitlyn Bristowe, actress Lindsey Lohan, singer Nick Jonas, and actress Shay Mitchelle from "Pretty Little Liars" are all in the list of rumored stars. Another rumored star is transgender female Caitlyn Jenner; however, her publicist is saying otherwise. Scott Disick's name has also been floating. Unfortunately, fans will not know who is in the show until it actually airs, so this is all speculation at this point, but there is no doubt that the cast will be very interesting indeed.
