As expected, Derek wont be back this season. I had read that he was going to star in a Broadway play but apparently he has other plans.

Sad to say that Tony wont be back this season either. And neither will Jenna Johnson.

Maks, Val, Sharna, Witney and Peta will be back as pros. Surprising news about Peta, as I thought she'd sit out another season to be with her baby.

So far, Olympic medalist Simone Biles, former A-Team star Mr. T and Fifth Harmony member Normani Kordei have signed on for this season.

Season 24 premieres March 20 at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.

I won't miss Dereck but I will miss Tony. Mr. T??? How old can that dude be??? Never heard of the chick. It is getting harder and harder to watch the show. I'm tired of Olympians and stars way past their prime.

Mr T is only 64 ad is in great shape. The chick I assume you are referring to is Normani Kordei. She is a member of Fifth Harmony. They are a pretty popular band.

One thing you have to understand is that they cant get the most popular stars. Their schedules are nuts and their price tags are way too much for DWTS to pay. They have to use reality stars, stars of the past, as well as sports stars.

I was surprised too. I think she and Maks have decided to make the most of their "15 minutes" of fame.....get the fast, easy money while they can. Make hay while the sun shines on what could be relatively short careers. Maybe pass on some of the traveling venues, more time at home as a family. Wisely invest the money for the future.


When their fame fades they can fall back on the dance studios and their investments and still have a very good life.


IMO....they are being very smart.


As far as Peta being with the baby, she will probably still have more time with it than the average working mother.


Remember when Maks said he would NEVER, EVER do the show again?


.......funny how that all changed once there was a baby on the way!

I think it had a lot more to do with Derek getting all the talented stars & winning so many mirror balls before there was a twinkling in his eye about a baby.

ABC on Wednesday revealed the full cast line-up for Dancing With the Stars Season 24, and The A-Team actor, Bachelor Nick Viall and Olympians Simone Biles and Nancy Kerrigan are among the celebrities confirmed to compete.


They join Glee grad Heather Morris, who clearly has an advantage going into the dance contest. Not only did Morris once compete on So You Think You Can Dance (having been eliminated during Vegas Week in Season 2), but she served as a back-up dancer to Beyoncé ahead of her time on the Fox drama.
Rounding out the cast: Saturday Night Live alum Chris Kattan, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills‘ Erika Jayne, ex-Jacksonville Jaguars running back Rashad Jennings, former Chicago Cubs catcher David Ross, professional bull rider Bonner Bolton, Fifth Harmony’s Normani Kordei and actress/comedienne/10-time Love Boat passenger Charo.
