Sticking to the same approach they took last season in announcing the new cast for Dancing With the Stars (related article here) ABC will make the reveal this coming Wednesday during a special edition of Good Morning America.
Rumors are already floating through the internet about who may be on the new season. Sports Illustrated for instance is reporting that billionaire and Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban will be one of the contestants.
An extensive list of others rumored to be on the show was posted at Reality TV Magazine: Lou Ferrigno, Wayne Newton, Aaron Carter, Floyd Mayweather, Jr., Richard Quest, Melanie “Scary Spice” Brown, Tori Spelling, Jennie Garth, Nia Peeples, Patrick Swayze, Helio Castroneves, Jane Seymour, Marily Henner, Giselle Bunchen, Ashley Tisdale, John Stamos, Greta Van Sustern, Barry Williams, Oscar De La Hoya, Marie Osmond and Sabrina Bryan.
TMZ has a picture gallery up of the probable contestants which can be viewed here.

WHEN IS DANCING WITH THE STARS COME ON THIS YEAR
Who are the new cast for 2008.
I should love to see Patrick Swayze and Sandra Bullock as contestants. OMG, Sandra loves the salsa, and Patrick is……well, good at EVERYTHING. This couple would draw MILLIONS of viewers!!!
anyone know when the 2008 season contestants will be announced and when the season starts?
Patrick Swazye couldn’t be on there. He is a dancer
I have to agree with Debby, Patrick Swazye couldn’t possibly compete because he is a professional dancer, as is his wife. On top of that, his mother (Patsy Swayze) is a professional choreographer. He attended the Harkness Ballet School and the Joffrey Ballet School. He could, however be one of the professional dancers to partner with a celebrity!
Monday after Dance Wars is the announcement
CANT WAIT UNTIL THE ANNOUNCEMENT TONIGHT ON DANCE WAR(8:00-abc)!! I HOPE THEY HAVE MORE KID STARS THIS YEAR(LIKE DISNEY CHANNEL STARS) THATS WHAT KEEPS ME INTERESTED! xoxo.
First I’d like to say that Dance War is terrible. I love the dancing but the show is just not put together well.
Now moving on to Dancing with the Stars. I’d love to see them pair up some of the professionals that normally get voted out early (like Alec!) with someone who at least half knows what they are doing.
hey people,
i would die to watch brian austin green with tori spelling!
i would die to watch lou feeeingo with cheryl hines
i would die to watch luke perry with gina gershey
i would die to watch jason preistly with gabreilla carter(19201 newspaper girl)
i would die to watch demi moore with john stomas
i would die to watch jodie foster with fabio
Meryl Streep would be amazing. My life would be complete if she was a contestant!!! I love that woman.
xx
I would like to see Kevin Bacon, Patrick Swazye, and John Travolta go at it. I know Swayze is a pro but it would still be great!
I saw in an interview that Bill Kaulitz,lead singer of Tokio Hotel and he confirmed,that he would be on Dancing with the Stars. He confirmed it on April 21st I believe.
There is only one Dancing with the Stars,right?
Will he be in it?
I hope he’s in it!!!!
Cassandra, where did you see that interview?

Hey, Look at the pics of my new emo hairstyle

I think it would be great if they had a contest with all the winners and runners up to compete for one season. NOW THAT WOULD BE GREAT
LOVE DANCING WITH THE STARS!!!!
QUESTION — PLEASE, HOW DOES ONE APPLY TO COMPETE ON DANCING WITH THE STARS???
PLEASE REPLY
THANK YOU
