Dancing with the Stars Season 9 – The Siblings Cast?
Written by: Princess HeidiSign up to receive all the latest Dancing with the Stars 2010 News, Rumors and Updates.
According to Pop Crunch, not only is LaToya Jackson in talks to appear, but so is her brother Jermaine Jackson!!
While her rep has refused to confirm the report, on Tuesday, Us Weekly learned that La Toya has been approached to compete on the talent show. And in related news, La Toya’s brother, singer-turned-reality TV star Jermaine Jackson, has also been tapped for a spot on the ninth season of DWTS, premiering next month.
The reason why I say “siblings” cast is because I’ve heard “chatter” in several places about Brandy and HER brother. Someone in the comments on a previous post mentioned it, and I saw it in three other places including Twitter and the ABC Boards. Who knows if it’s true, and this could certainly be a giant game of telephone (possibly confusing siblings). Throw in that Mark/Derek/Julianne are family (even though Julianne won’t be back – or so we’re told), and all we need to hear is that Benji Schwimmer will be joining the pros (please, no – love Lacey, but no Benji please). Anybody wanna bet? 
How about Jack Osborne and Chelsie against Kelly Osborne and Mark? LaToya and Maks versus Jermaine and Kym?? Brandy and Derek versus Brandy’s brother and Lacey? Egads!! Or is that Gadzooks!! Hey David, does Beth Horn have a brother?? You keep telling me about the campaign to get her on the show (Check Beth Horn’s facebook).

Heidi … that article is hilarious!
Beth does have a brother!
But Beth/Venom and Don Yates/Wolf act like brother and sister so they may be a better duo!
Yet, I still like the Venom vs. Incredible Hulk theme!
Hey, I think Beth Horn would be an awesome add for Season 9.
She is a unique contradiction – very athletic and strong, while very personable and sweet. She has a huge following in the fitness world, and in the US gymnastics community, as well, independent of the AG “Venom” fame. She also comes from military roots and does a lot of USO shows. Maybe DWTS would be well served if they want a “Jackson” on there, by all means go with Jermaine – but I would go with Beth Horn way before LaToya. I don’t know what personal following LaToya has (beyond what Jermaine would provide if he were included).
I think Beth has definitely the potential to be an “American sweetheart” type person and I think she will represent well. With her athleticism, I also think she would perform well. Dancing at this level isn’t “dancing” – it really is a competitive sport.
Beth Horn would rock it!!
i hope that Brandy is on this next season becouse she is actually very famous but please no latoya
Hey Phillipe…. who is Brady’s brother? =)
i don’t have any idea who Brandy’s brother is ,i know Brandy but never heard of her brother
Brandy’s brother is Ray J, of Kim Kardashian Sex Tape Fame!
Ah you beat me to it!! I was just coming to say that.
I am tempted to post the link I just googled of the video but it is X-Rated.
I am surprised.
I know Ray J is no Usher but how can you not know who Ray J is now? Not only was his Sex tape the most talked about thing in 2007-2008 but he has also been on Many Tv shows including Moesha,One on one and his own Vh1 show For the love of Ray J not to mention he has a few hit songs and a sister who was highly famous and successful through out the 90’s…. If you don’t know who Ray J is by now, your pretty much living under a rock, this isn’t the 90’s when Ray J was in Brandy’s shadow, he is actually considered a celebrity now LOL
but I would love to see Latoya & Jermaine and Brandy & Ray J, Brandy & Ray J are really close and it is so cute to see them together.
We all know who Ray J is. But I for one did not know that he was Brandy’s brother. I guess I just have not “seen” what the big deal about him is. If he is on DWTS, I look forward to him showing it off. From what little I know, I imagine the guy can dance!
I cannot speak for everyone else but I knew who Ray J was but did not know he was Brandy’s brother. Yet, I have not really kept up with his career. So I look forward to seeing what he can do and learning more about him. I imagine the guy can really dance and knows all the hard work he will have to put in to really bring it on DWTS, if he is in fact on this season. That said, and you can call me old school, I’m not generally an enthusiastic supporter of people who jump on the “I gotta have a sex tape” band wagon, but that is par for the course in many Hollywood circles. =) I won’t prejudge him and, therefore, won’t assume anyone is “living under a rock” either. =)
Exactly – and frankly, if Ray J were all that he would NOT be on Dancing with the Stars. I knew who he was, but had no clue he was Brandy’s brother. The rest of his credits are not “big time” in my opinion, either. None of it is true mainstream TV. Sex tapes don’t count – that notoriety, not celebrity. It’s not like he’s on Desperate Housewives or something.
Hey Heidi, great article. Those would be interesting match-ups should they happen.
[...] I’d rather have Janet, but La Toya would be cool too. Did you see that it might actually be a siblings cast with La Toya Jackson and Jermaine Jackson on the show as well. More details: http://www.puredwts.com/2009/08/12/dancing-with-the-stars-season-9-the-siblings-cast/ [...]
[...] reported that the only reason she wasn’t on last season was because of Michael’s death (Jermaine was also occassionally included in this rumor). LOTS of people are pretty convinced that she will [...]
