Dancing with the Stars Season 11 Cast Rumors – Landon Donovan
Well, this is according to Hollywood Life. Have no idea if they are accurate but given the high degree of speculation that he would be on after USA’s performance at the world cup (think Evan Lysacek right after the Olympics), I would wager that Hollywood Life is gambling a bit. 🙂
After becoming an American hero during the World Cup, this soccer stud is in hot demand!
Given that his team was knocked out of the World Cup this Saturday and a British tabloid plans on running a story about his ‘secret love child’, Landon Donovan is in dire need of some good news. It’s a good thing HollywoodLife.com always aims to please: we can report that the American soccer stud is about to be made an offer from Dancing with the Stars producers to appear on the hit ABC show next season!
You can follow the link to read the whole article, but they quote someone on staff as saying they want him on the show and that his soccer schedule won’t conflict. I say “DO it, he’s hot.” 🙂
Talk about good footwork! He may want to lay low if he’s got personal stuff simmering, though. Goodness knows he’d lose privacy venturing out into DWTS. There’s a thought, DWTS becomes progressively unattractive to the kind of stars that bring viewers/sponsors because the negatives begin to outweigh the positives.
I’d love to see Donovan. He’d be fun to watch. Although, the knock against him is his lack of personality. Watch some of his post game interviews. Maybe it was because it was just after a long grueling match, but I think he’d be a miss in the personality department.
I don’t know about him joining the cast. There’s a big rumor out that Manchester, England is willing to pay big bucks for him to join their squad. Without a doubt, you will see SOME US soccer team member, I just don’t think it will be him.
If we really want to go on a soccer binge, how about bringing Mia Hamm onto DWTS??? One of the best female athletes of all time. Plus it would help having her husband Nomar Garciaparra (Red Socks player) on the sidelines cheering her on. Or better yet, he can join her in the competition!
Howard,
How about an all couples DWTS? A whole season of famous couples. Now that would be interesting.
@John– Why not. If it wasn’t for Niecy Nash, last season would have been a total bust for me. I’m just looking for something different to keep my interested at this point.
Howard,
You’re actually in the minority then. Last seasons ratings were great. Not my favorite season ever, but a great season for sure.
@John– I know I’m in the minority. And I can’t figure out why. I got into this show (and the rest of the ABC shows) by chance. All my other ABC “must sees” are losing ground too. I’ll see what the fall brings…
That’s funny that you say that about ABC. I’m down to only a few ABC shows now. Had to drop a few of them since they started sucking.
I love the Jersey Shore kids! I’m so happy
“Mike the Situation” might be considered one of the celebs on dwts for Season 11, although my favorite is Paulie. We still need Steve Wilkos, PeeWee Herman and Brooke or Hulk Hogan!!! Natalie

[…] for this season in my eyes. Don’t see a whole lot of hope for wrestler Shelley Martinez. Landon Donovan is a toss-up for me – maybe, maybe not. We here at Pure DWTS would love to see a representative […]
