Tom DeLay???!!!???

This has to be the most pathetic gathering of Z-list celebs since "I'm a Celebrity! Get Me Out of Here!"

There are EIGHT people on this list that I have never heard of.

Okay.....I see Natalie Coughlin on that list (I really only know a fraction of the names) and I am throwing my support to her...y'all know I always root for an athlete....especially if it is an Olympian!

I can't believe I beat newyorkjetsfan to it...!

To be honest, until nyjetsfan posts this, I'll still consider this unofficial...:razz:

[newyorkjetsfan]

I can't believe I beat newyorkjetsfan to it...!

I can't believe that you beat me to it!!!!

I'm rooting for Natalie Coughlin. I also can't wait to see JoAnna Krupa.

Also, for three weeks down the season, there will be three double eliminations.

I hope we don't start getting a politician each season. :hand:

I wonder who donny is going to dance with

[WhiteHatBobby]

Old George Hamilton's own Ashton is in it . . . Like Father, Like Son?

Allez Danse!

Ashley, isn't it?

[WhiteHatBobby]

Absolutely!


Who would be referenced if I say, "Allez Danser!"

I wouldn't have a clue....but through the wonder of google I could guess "Mark Dacascos"!! ;)

[super cool ski instructor]

I wouldn't have a clue....but through the wonder of google I could guess "Mark Dacascos"!! ;)

So I googled Mark D...and I never knew that was his name!! I just knew him as the Chairman :))

I like Mark D!!!!!!

[Dr. Funkenstein]

If people vote solely on dancing ability, Mya's going to be VERY tough to beat.

[WhiteHatBobby]

And here are the teams!

Aaron Carter & Karina Smirnoff
Natalie Coughlin & Alec Mazo c*
Mark Dacascos & Lacey Schwimmer
Tom Delay & Cheryl Burke c (2)
Macy Gray & Jonathan Roberts
Ashley Hamilton & Edyta Sliwinska
Melissa Joan Hart & Mark Ballas c
Kathy Ireland & Tony Dovolani
Michael Irvin & Anna Demidova
Joanna Krupa & Derek Hough c
Chuck Liddell & Anna Trebunskaya
Debi Mazar & Maksim Chermovskiy
Mya & Dmitry Chaplin
Kelly Osbourne & Louis van Amistel
Donny Osmond & Kym Johnson
Louie Vito & Chelsie Hightower

* Mazo's win in Series 1 is controversial, resulting in a dance-off that he lost.

c denotes a former Series Champion.

Sliwinska has competed in all eight series; this is her ninth.

Mark Ballas is the defending champion of the show.

I must admit Tom DeLay is definitely a favourite; with Cheryl Burke, a 2-time champion, could that be a huge help? Burke and Ballas are two-time champions.
