DWTS Season 14 – Rumor…or Wild Speculation: Nicole Anderson
I seriously wanted to put “wild-assed” speculation in the title of this one but thought John might get mad at me. 🙂
Seriously, though – after lecturing everyone about not jumping at shadows and thinking every “exciting news” comment on Twitter is a pending DWTS announcement, here I am…jumping at a shadow. Unfortunately, as Claire pointed out in the comments, this one has a twisted synergy to it that lends it some credence in my very twisted mind. 🙂 What am I calling twisted synergy?? Well, the DWTS producers often show themselves to be rather unimaginative and uninspired when it comes to finding contestants for the show – and that’s what this would be. Chelsea Kane’s co-star on Jonas?? The Disney Channel?? Doesn’t this have Mark Ballas written all over it?? Come on, producers, shop at another store, would ya?? Nicole is/was a competitive gymnast, too. She seems like a cute girl – but I hope this one is WRONG. Here’s what she posted on Twitter last night:
i have no cluewho she is but i will say this: if they wanted a disney person try another disney show next time lol “JONAS” has been off the air for quite some time and I’m pretty sure there are more popular disney stars out there.
this would be soooooo wrong!!!!! Chelsea Kane’s co-star with Mark….really??? am i ga-ga or the producers are way out there?????? what … are they out of options for him to take the third MBT?? if it’s true…it feels like kristi yamaguchi and Shawn Johnson.
I’m loving the rumors today! I like Nicole Anderson and I think this could be true, she’ll be great! Praying this one’s true!
Yawn!
Wait is she tall enough for Derek? Cuz that would be his first athlete as a partner (she has a gymnastics past).
Boring. For all the talk of Serek getting pretty girls, other male pros also got hotties. Disney girls? All Mark except Louis. Also another one who has gymnastics background? I was hoping for Mark with Sherri or better. With Dolly or Paula Deen. Give him someone at least over forty for once! Everyone else has!
Lol. Derek not Serek
Have NO idea who this is…showing my age. 🙂
Hoping this one is true. Been waiting for a girl with a bit of experience to be rumored. Perfect for Mark. It’s like a combo of Shawn Johnson and Chelsea Kane. Hoping this is true.
However, a tweet of hers below that one mentioned something about “pilot season” so it could be about landing a TV pilot.
[…] *Dancing With the Stars 14 (Spring 2012)* Spoilers & Speculation DWTS Season 14 – Rumor…or Wild Speculation: Nicole Anderson | Pure Dancing with the Star… Never heard of this girl, but if its true, I guess we know who Mark's partner is going to be. So […]
TV Pilots are one shot deals, usually (since large numbers don’t get picked up), and I don’t know how excited she would get about it. Unless she already did the Pilot and it’s going to get picked up. That would be exciting.
How about perfect for another pro? Seriously. Every pro on the show has had an older partner than him. He just had Chelsea and Kristin. Both young. He already had a gymnast. Why not another pro? It is not like Mark is just that good or the most popular to monopolize this type. Derek danced with folks with no fan base, a lot shorter than him, bigger than him and much older with neck injuries.
I am not sure about a pilot pick up would be this soon. Unless she was cast in a new pilot that will be shot soon. But the fact she says soon makes me think dwts. Dwts casting loses points for not being imaginative if this is true and paired with Mark.
Mark did have a couple partners who were older than him, but he’s had many more that were younger than him or his age. Kristi, Shannen and Melissa Joan Hart were all older than him, similar to Jennie, Shannon and Brooke for Derek – another reason why I don’t get the complaining. For his three older-than-him partners, he had Shawn, Sabrina, Chelsea and Bristol.
Vin, I would hardly call this girl an ‘athlete’ just because she competed in gymnastics as a preteen. She was injured and had to quit, and is an ‘actress.’
And Matt, I don’t think she’s perfect for Mark. He’s already had her costar and several other partners just like her. It’s ridiculous for Mark to always get this type, the show needs to mix it up. I really don’t see them giving this girl to Mark after he just had Chelsea Kane, but then I also said he wouldn’t get Shawn Johnson after having Kristi Yamaguchi, and we know how that turned out. *Sigh*
I’m just really hoping for a young partner for Derek for once. Fans deserve to see a different dynamic with him, it would make the show more interesting to watch. This girl is not well known and won’t have a big fanbase at all that watches the show, but if she performs well, a popular pro could keep her on the show long enough to build a fanbase.
I just really want to Derek to get
wow she is only 5’3, perfect height for mark. I am a big mark ballas fan and would love for him to paired with someone older than 30 at least. Hope the rumor ain’t true cuz if it is she would obviously request mark to be her partner, since chelsea did make it pretty far.
Angela, Chelsea was aided by the extra 15pts in the WTA cha cha…or she would have been gone. She didn’t have the fan base Ralph, Kirstie, or Hines had.
I doubt she has enough pull to request and get Mark. If she is on and gets Mark it will just be kismet.
Why assume that if she is on she will go to Mark? Since he had Chelsie Kane, it seems unlikely that the show would give him someone basically in the same mold.
Mark has had his share of older partners. Kristi, Melissa and Shannen were in their 30’s and Kym and Sabrina, while in their 20’s, were both older than Mark.
I don’t understand the assumption that she would go to Mark…why wouldn’t it be possible that Derek would get her?
Mark had older partners but his oldest were still in their thirties. It is nothing compared to the other pros.
I think it is a valid assumption to make considering the show seems to oddly give him these types.
Chelsea was aided by the WTA points and had to compete against a very vocal dislike towards Mark and his behavior that season.
# Angela…not to be mean…but if she wants to go pretty far…she should ask for Mark…if she wants to win…Derek is the way to go!!! i may be just a little subjective…but i’ll take the risk!
According to the fan page you linked to, she’s been cast in a pilot of Beauty and the Beast, as in the 80’s TV show, playing Catherine’s younger sister. Seems likely that’s the reference. Don’t know her either, like a lot of commenters.
If it’s on her fan page, then why would she be teasing it as a surprise coming soon??
Because Derek has never had anyone in their twenties and never had anyone younger than him. His partners have been in their 30’s, 40’s and 50’s – and when he was 22, a partner in their 30s is a significant age difference.
For whatever reason, I don’t seem them breaking that mold now.
She just tweeted something about her pilot being picked up by the CW.
Well, good. 🙂
I like Nicole, she’s cool and seems really nice, but please no. I don’t want season 12 all over again! Except Ralph, he’s awesome.
