Dancing with the Stars Season 13 Cast – Pick me!! Pick Me!!
Every season we have campaigns run by stars or their fanbases to get them on DWTS. Starting last season, DWTS has gone out of its way to encourage massive campaigning – yet they pick no one who has a serious campaign up and running. Why do they do this?? Who knows? I often wonder if they do it to clog up twitter so badly that those of us who look can’t separate the campaign from the rumor. ๐ I do know I’ve seen a few campaigners in the last few days that I don’t think we’ve mentioned before – and some that we have, like Shelley Martinez, who haven’t given up just yet. We’ve covered a few that were new to this season, such as Michael E. Knight, Randy Jones and Ellen Kay.
So who are the newbies?? Or, if not newbies, people I haven’t seen campaigning before? Let’s start with Christine Lakin. Christine is an actress with a pretty long resume but nothing HUGE – which means she’s perfect for DWTS. You might know her as Al from “Step by Step”. It’s not ringing a bell with me, but I’m sure she has a lot of fans, since she has people campaigning for her on abc.com -and she’s up for it!

Christine is also listed as “choreographer” for a few theater productions. ย So, ringer by talent??
Next on the list is Tracy DiMarco from Jerseylicious – I wouldn’t say Tracy is campaigning, per se, just that I saw a tweet from her where she indicated that she was up for it. Of course, I can’t find that tweet NOW. ๐ You’ll have to take my word for it. ย I think it more likely that she has fans campaigning for her. ย I am somewhat ashamed to admit that I have seen a few episodes of Jerseylicious ๐ and she would be an interesting girl to have on the show. Kind of a female Situation with a bit of a hair and makeup obsession. ๐ ย Seriously, I like Jerseylicious a thousand times more than the two episodes I saw of Jersey Shore – no, I don’t know why. ๐ Would love to see her with Derek or Mark simply because I don’t think either of them would know what to do with her….although Derek did have Lil’ Kim and he handled that very well. ย Then there’s Maks – who puts down all Jersey related shows for how they portray the NYC metropolitan area. ๐ THAT would be fun. ๐
Next up….the Real Melina. ย No, I don’t know her last name. ๐ ย She’s one of the ladies of the WWE! ย She’s also a model who has been in several pagents. ย Is she up for it?? Well, let’s just say I would pay BIG MONEY to see this:

Interesting choices. Christine Lankin is a person that needs a huge boost in her career and DWTS could do just that BUT she is a terrible actress. As for Tracey, I would NEVER want to see her on the show EVER. I youtubed her and she is annoying and loud. Latly, Melina is a GREAT idea! I persoanlly would love to see Trish Stratus on the show but she could really do well on DWTS as well. Plus, she has a killer personality as well.
LOL Heidi! I’m loving this. I can’t say I know much on any of them, but, I’m game. LOL to the WWE girl who would keep Maks in line. That would be funny. I’m really hoping Hope Solo gets Maks though if that is something serious and possible in the making.
Actually on second though I want to see Tracey on the show But paired with Mark. He needs to experience dealing with a loud personality that overpowers others like he was with Chelsea.
Vin, now you are talkin’! ๐
These girls are good choices and some that I am not familiar with, which makes it wonderful. I love going into a season and finding a hidden gem amongst the cast.
@Vin – Love it!
How about Hope Solo from the US Women’s soccer team. I understand Maks said something about wanting to be her partner…..
Maks seems to be pretty serious about getting Hope Solo to be his partner for Season 13 – he phoned in on ESPN’s night show to repeat his request. Not really sure why he’s so gung-ho for Solo (will her popularity last through Season 13 to give her enough of a fan base?). Maybe Maks thinks she’s hot and wants to get to know her on a personal level (although I’m sure he could arrange a date with her if that’s all he wanted).
If Maks doesn’t get Hope Solo (even though I would love to see that pairing) I would pair him with Mia Hamm if he wants an athlete. That would be agreat pair unless Misty comes back than give him Misty (would they even have her come back since she made it decently far into the competition?)
There was at one point and time some ramblings about Shaun White the red headed snowboarder. I wonder if there is any possibility of ever seeing him on DWTS. Maybe they were baseless rumors, but I would love to see him on the show!
Yeah, Sandy – we wrote about Shawn White either for last season or the one before. There was “talk” about him being on the show. I think it was mainly Louie Vito and him teasing each other about DWTS, more than a legitimate rumor.
I Just read that Snooki, Rob Kardashian and R & B Singer Christina Milian are in talks to do DWTS Season 13. These celebs names are a first for me. Gawd, I cant stand Snooki, YUCK!
Stay tuned Sandy. We have a new post coming up on that soon ….as well as a new wannabe. (I’m with you on Snooki! EEEK)
Didn’t I post about Snooki a couple months ago??
@Heidi – You very well may have. My nearly middle aged brain can only handle so much information before it goes on overload….. LOL
Well, Vogue and I both searched for it and we can’t find it, so it might have been a psychic dream. ๐
LOL and you are “psychic” at THAT, so, you never know!!! You watch, she’ll be a shoe in for sure and we will look back and laugh at this. lol
Unfortunately, Derek made an appearance in my “psychic” dreams last night and that is NOT a good sign, combined with snooki. ๐ Maybe she’s so short they’ll give her to Mark. ๐ Or Louis.
ROTFLLLL LET’S HOPE!!
