Great list Vogue!
I would say any number of figure skaters. I happen to love Paul Wylie a lot! I just saw him on a Family Holiday Ice Show special. He has not lost anything! He is always so precise, so sharp! His wife and three kids all skate and so well too. All of the skaters on the special skated with their kids. Scott Hamilton would be a special treat in the cast! Love him bunches, too!
Any numbers of General Hospital stars. Have you seen Ryan Paevey? He is a hot commodity! Would love to see him! Kristen Alderson, Bryan Craig, Chad Duell. Michael Easton, everyone wants him to do it, but he says he won’t.
American Idols have lots of possibilities. Adam Lambert. I would love to see Taylor Hicks!
Any number of football players. Even coaches as you have listed. I would love to see Bill Cowher, Terry Bradshaw, the list goes on and on for football. I doubt baseball players could do the show, at least active ones. Their schedules are too full. But, Cole Hamels would be a choice.
There is still more than enough possibilities to fill casts for many seasons to come.
Who knows what is planned for the Tenth. But I will love every single second of the celebration and show, as usual!
David Lee Roth
Rosie Perez
Rupaul
Antonio Banderas
Andre Agassi
Tara Lipinski
Terry Bradshaw
Shelly Long
Tyler Oakley
Any cast member from Once Upon A Time
Harvey Fierstein
Allegra Kent
Dana Carvey
I want to second two of Vogue’s picks:
Any Backstreet Boys and Kim Zimmer
Madonna – I know it’s never going to happen because, well..it’s freaking MADONNA, but boy it would be so amazing, I can only imagine what she could do with that body of hers, she’s 56 and in better shape than people half her age.
Love your choices so ,Everyone!!
And, Andrea, ditto! I’d be so in heaven with that choice too!!
And playing off your idea, Andrea, it would be cool to see Madonna’s kids Rocco and Lola dance. Rocco really lit up Madonna’s last tour in a couple of numbers. I always thought it would be cool to see Carlos Leon (Lola’s dad) dance too.
Ross Matthews
Aaron Paul(breaking bad)
Brad Paisley(country singer)
Voguerista seeing her kids would be cool as well, they’re so talented and well-grounded.I love Carlos as well. But still, imagine if M got paired off with Derek…I don’t know if I could handle it,I mean I can’t even. The world would explode. It doesn’t even matter what pro she’d get it would still be so awesome…ahh, it’s nice day dreaming.
Rydel lynch
Victoria duffield
Amy sheppard
Meghan trainor
Nikki yanofsky
I would choose many of the people from your list Vogue.
Rick Schroeder
David Cassidy
Maureen McCormick
Barry Williams
Brian Boitano
Katarina Witt
Henry Winkler and add
Valerie Bertinelli
John Stamos
In a perfect world I’d want A-list celebrities (who claim they watch the show) to do it for charity and no one would be eliminated until the finale which would be determined by highest cumulative scores.
That’s actually harder than I thought it would be and I’m kind of glad I don’t have to make the choices. I didn’t come up with lots of name and anyway I like goods surprises like Sadie whom I didn’t know before this season. So here’s the list I could come up with:
Sasha Cohen (figure skater)
Tyra Banks (tv)
Patrick Duffy
Tony Danza or Judith Light
Karen Gillan (selfie)
Richard Gere
Sarah Michelle Gellar (buffy)
Josh Radnor (how I met your mother)
Liam Payne (one direction)
Carson Daly
Rob Gronkowski
Ryan Lochte
Brian McKnight
Chuck Norris
Robert Ri’chard
Derek Theler
Samantha Brown
Lacey Chabert
Gabby Douglas
Sarah Hyland
Keshia Knight Pulliam
Kirsten Storms
Kimberly Williams Paisley
I want to add that I am usually always pleased with the cast every season. The only thing I wish that would change would be to go back to the days where if a celebrity made it to the finals, then they need to learn every dance. Also, what’s the point of only one person performing a dance style (Michael and Emma doing the Waltz, or Charlie and Sharna being the only couple performing the Pasodoble)
So many good ones, Everyone. Thank you. And I love the thought of Valerie Bertinelli, John Stamos, Richard Gere (I would die if this happened. I’m having “Shall We Dance” flashbacks. Plus, pair him with Karina. Hot), Sasha Cohen, Chuck Norris, Tony Danza, and Judith Light(OMG, she was soo good on Dallas!) .
This would be different and so cool. I love this idea!!!
Some great list of people again!
@Susan2 I really like your pick of Dana Carvey! I would love to see him on the show.
@Trent Chuck Norris is a interesting pick too.
I like the idea of figure skaters Sasha Cohen and Paul Wylie.
I still want Tamera Mowry of The Real or Tia Mowry (mostly Tamera)to be on the show.
Would love to see Fiona Hughes GH on the show.
@Josi I don’t know any of those you listed. I will have to look them up! LOL
Oh Andrea, it would be the ultimate DWTS dream if that happened. I would take a LIVE performance too. Rumor has it Madonna will be releasing her new album in March and then her new tour will start soon afterwards in the summer or fall sometime. I would just love it if she were on the show. It would make the perfect promo for it..and yeah, paired with Derek for part of the performance with her back-up dancers along with. I would die…just die. lol
Couldn’t agree more, Trent!!
Yay! It’s this time again! ๐ Alright here’s my list… for now…
Amy Jo Johnson (Original pink Power Ranger… hehehe)
Becky G (Singer/Rapper.. she’s young and current. Surprised she hasn’t been asked yet)
Carla Hall
Sam Mikulak
Lily Aldridge
Candice Swanepoel
Kurt Angle
Danielle Fishel and Ben Savage! (Cory and Topanga!!! Would be so awesome to have them both!!)
Cassandra Peterson (Elvira!)
Raini Rpdriguez
Tamar Braxton
Loni Love
Tamera Mowry-Housley
Jason Kennedy
Jake T. Austin
Carlos Ponce
Maria Canals-Barrera
Laura Marano
Olivia Holt
Robin Meade
Jonathan Knight
James Van der Beek
George Foreman
Todd Chrisley
Keshia Knight Pulliam
Taylor Spreitler
Victoria Justice
Brian Boitano
Scott Baio
I can’t wait for the new album, I’m so going to see her next year when she goes on tour! Oh my god Voguerista imagine if Derek went on tour with her as one of her backup dancers and he would come up with all the choreography!!!!
I agree with whoever said bring the A-list celebrities to do it for charity, that would be amazing!
Derek? A back up Dancer?? As if. :::sniff:::
๐ No, not even for Madonna.
Hah, I just watched an episode of Law & Order that Carlos Leon was in and I wondered if any of the Madonna clan would ever do DWTS. I think she’s still too big herself, but with her dance experience – oh man, the routines!
I just want a darn baseball player – is that too much to ask?
I have to agree with Heidi, being a back up dancer for Madonna would be stepping backwards when he’s bigger than that now.
Just an FYI for those that don’t know: Paul Kirkland, Sharna’s boyfriend, was a dancer in two of Madonna’s tours.
And Andrea, I hope you can go see her show too. Be ready for the ride of your life….it’s a “journey” every time…theatrically and dance wise. You’ll love it. I advise everyone (even non fans) to see her show atleast once. She’s a huge perfectionist, a lot of thought goes into everything, and it shows in every detail.
Stana Katic(!!!)
Tyler Oakley
Eric Christian Olsen
Daniela Ruah(but she won the portuguese version so that wont happen sniff:( )
We need another football player
Dove Cameron
Shay Mitchell
Tara Lipinski

@Jane
Harry Shum Jr. (Glee) can dance rings around quite a few of the DWTS pros! He’d be the ringer of all ringers. And Harry has A LOT going on in his career now. He’s also in a Martin Scorsese film and a lead in the sequel to Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
I wouldn’t mind seeing DWTS dip into that show again but I’d cast Mark Salling (Puck/ heartthrob but doesn’t resemble a teenager at all) who it seems isn’t much of a dancer. Or, Kevin McHale who plays Artie, a character in a wheelchair on the show but who has moves in real life.
1)Cheryl Tiegs (paired with Derek): She seems so nice. When she was on the apprentice, she was just so damn nice and I think her whole cool, calm and collected and nice vibe will be great on DWTS. I like the idea of her being paired with Derek becuase he has the same kind of personality.
2)Kristen Aldersen(paired with Mark): I asked my mother for someone from GH and this her favorite actress on the show. Therefore she made my list.
3)Cyndi Lauper(paired with Val): She just has this whole “let’s have fun” attitude and I love that.
4)Brande Roderick (paired with Tony): She just amuses me for some reason.
5)Torrie Wilson(paired with Artem): She is a stunner to look at but watch any of her matches and you can see she has speed to her.
6)Jennie Finch (paired with Henry): I just want her on the show. Not going to lie, I think she is gorgeous.
7)Eric Decker (paired with Karina): He is super tall and one hell of a football player but I think that Karina could make it work.
8)Dana Carvey (paired with Peta): This would be the only pro I could see him doing really well with on the show and I really want to see him on the show)
9)Lil Jon (paired with Witney): He is on my list becuase he has the odd ability to annoy me YET entertain me. Kinda like Donny Osmond but not concieted.
10)DJ Paullie D(piared with Allison): He would be fun to watch and he can’t be worse than Mike the Situation.
11)Brett Dalton(paired with Emma): He is really good on Marvel Agents of Shield. My only reasoning for wanting him on the show.
12)John Stamos (paired with Sharna): No other reasoning besides I think he would be awesome.
And just in case they have more than 12 (I hope not though)
13)any Olsen twin(paired with Louis): I hate him on the show but would love to see what he could do with a “unique” personality like either of them.
14)Steve Kaze(paired with Jenna): He seems like a fun guy. My sole reasoning.
@CC: I almost had Kurt Angle on my list. He was awesome on WWE
I didn’t have Keo in my original list becuase I am worried that they might not ask him back………I’m praying that he comes back :). If he is back, I think he should get someone with a lot of personality and all I can think of is: Carla Hall. She has it to spare.
@Vogue #16
I really love the movie “Shall We Dance” also. All those people had a journey in Ballroom dancing like on DWTS. I just love Susan Sarandon. Would love to see her and Richard Gear on DWTS.
@ Colleen: I know Harry has a strong dance background (which has been showcased on Glee), but I don’t think he has been ballroom trained, so it would be nice to see him compete on the show. Plus, being from Costa Rica, I’m sure he would do quite well in the Latin dances. However, I did not know about his upcoming projects, so thanks for updating me! ๐ Martin Scorsese – wow, that’s impressive…
My thing about wanting Harry (& Michelle Kwan) on DWTS is because, as an Asian-American, it would be nice to see more Asian-Americans on the show. They’re very rarely cast & I think Harry & Michelle would represent us very well.
Whereas other people have had dance training and been on the show, Harry would be the first *seriously* trained dancer.
I love ringers (mostly) and I love Harry – but even I would cry foul on that one.
it’s like christmas came early…i love this post! ๐
Ladies: (Not super diverse here…)
Eliza Dushku (and pros, cause it’s so fun!….Tristan)

Reba McIntyre
Trisha Yearwood
Fantasia Barrino
McKayla Maroney
Ozzy Osbourne–I see him being a “Tommy Chong”
Tim McGraw
Faith Hill
@ PH: I don’t know how much dance training Harry has had – I just figured he was at the same level as Corbin, who also had extensive training. Or is he more at the Allison Holker-level, a professional dancer not trained in ballroom but could get away w/ it pretty easily?
-Karlie Kloss (one of the Victoria’s Secret models) (she could either be partnered w/ either Tony or Keo since she’s tall)
-Briana Evigan (actress known for Step Up 02 & All In)
-Lea Michele (actress known for Glee) (she could be either partnered w/ Mark or Derek)
-Gabby Douglas (gymnast) (100% likely to be partnered w/ Sasha Farber)
-Shay Mitchell (actress from PLL)
-Naya Rivera
-one of the R5 boys
-one of the football players
-one of the baseball players
-one of the comedians
-one of the basketball players
-one of the male models
I would like to see the cowboy actor from the Budweiser Clydesdale superbowl commercials Don Jeanes. Quite handsome and charismatic, does the two step, I think he would be teachable.

Ellie Goulding (with Mark)
Shay Mitchell (with Val)
Lauren Conrad (with Derek)
Avril Lavigne (with Henry)
Rita Ora (with Arthem)
Shailene Woodley (with Sasha)
Aaron Ramsey (with Witney)
Theo James (with Peta)
Brody Jenner (with Sharna)
Liam Payne (with Emma)
Jake Gyllenhaal (with Cheryl)
Zayn Malik (with Lindsay)
No to Derek with Michelle Kwan (sorry but no). Also, no to Ross Lynch (Talk about unfair having Julianne and Derek as cousins). Anyways, here’s my wish list:
FEMALE
-Debby Ryan w/ Val
-Shania Twain w/ Tony
-Erin Moran (Happy Days) w/ Henry
-Vanessa L. Williams (singer) w/ Artem
MALE
-Carlos PenaVega w/ Witney
-David Giuntoli (Grimm) w/ Anna
-Todd Bridges w/ Peta
-Ryan Locte or Tim Howard w/ Sharna
-Chris Daughtry w/ Karina
Hey if maks can get meryl why can’t derek get Michelle? Talk about emmy worthy dances. Sure the show would like that
I would love Tony Danza and Judith Light! Two of my forever favorites! And she was absolutely divine on DALLAS! What a bummer this show was cancelled and not picked up by anyone! One of the dumbest decisions!
Harry Connick Jr
Keith Urban
Ryan Seacrest
How about someone from the cast of “Castle.” It’s an ABC show, so I don’t understand why they haven’t already done it.
Would love to see Dean Cain, too!
And how about a former Major League Baseball player? We’ve never had a baseball player on DWTS. I know that might be tough, given that so many of them stay in the game as coaches, scouts & broadcasters. But surely there’s at least 1 out there who would be willing to do the show. How about Johnny Bench?
How about Shepard Smith (Fox news)
Whoever suggested Ellen DeGeneres as a guest judge is a genius. I’m not sure she’ll be the best judge for technique but I’ll probably mindlessly love her.
My wish list:
Nastia Liukin and Mark!!! Always wanted this pairing and want it even more now since she was in his Miss Incredible video.
Anyone from Glee, preferably Chris Colfer or —
Grant Gustin, who’s now on The Flash
Landon Donavon
Somebody anybody from Teen Wolf past and present
Mateo Arias
Alyson Stoner
Ciara Bravo
I feel really narrow for picking mostly actors/actresses
Renee Felice Smith from NSIS or Stana Katic from Castle
@carol Wasn’t Drew Carey already on the show? LOL
I like all your suggestions. It would be so funny if Kati Witt would dance on DWTS because she was in Germany once in the jury (Letยดs Dance).
Robert Duvall. They always cast at least one geezer, and I just read an interview with him where he said that he does his own horseback riding and dancing in movies. So he might be a bit more reasonable than the Woz or some others.
@Misty I was going to say the same thing to carol haha. She must have missed him last season ๐
And @Jeff , Torah Bright did the Australian version of the show this season and she wasn’t great but she also wasn’t terrible.
I do agree that there should be more extreme sports stars. Ryan Sheckler would be awesome!!
Michelle Kwan (for sure w/Derek, please)
Jeremy Bloom
Tatyana Ali
Tia & Tamera Mowry
Paul Wylie
Keisha Knight Pulliam
Malcolm Jamal Warner
Tiffani Thiessen
Nastia Liukin
Lori Grenier
Brady Quinn
Ace Young
Danica Patrick
Mia Hamm
Tim Howard
Landon Donavan
Kylie Jenner
Landon Donovan (sorry about sp)
I would love to see Antonio Bandares and Fran Drescher (Nanny) Also, I’d like to see them give Nicole Polizzi another shot. I thought she was wonderful. I’d even go as far as Khloe Kardashian (maybe?).
I like some others suggestions including Aishwarya Rai, Gabby Douglas, Mario Cantone, Kevin McHale.
In addition, how about Susan Sullivan (the mother on Castle), Lara Spencer, Ashley Judd and Gus Kenworthy?
I don’t know about anyone else, but I’d really like to see Taylor Louderman do the show. She was Wendy in Peter Pan Live, and I really liked her a lot! She has Broadway experience, which might not be the best for this show, but I really want to see her do the show!
I agree with a lot of people that you guys have said, like the figure skaters, and having a baseball or basketball player. I think it would be an interesting twist to have a season where it’s kind of competition between people with previous dance experience and people without it – it would either go really well or really badly, and I’m not sure which.
Would love to see Malcolm Gets. Actually was in school with him years ago, he’s an amazing all-round performer!
@Carol #50
Yes, Drew was on S-18 and Cheryl was his pro partner (she good with Drew). I loved “Switch Up” when Witney Carson was his switch partner. She really showed me her talent and this year she was awesome.

Every year I hope for John Stamos and Neve Campbell.
Seeing so many mentions of Dana Carvey above is awesome. Never occurred to me before but that needs to happen!
And last year there were some rumours of Shania Twain who I’d love to see on it, so she’s on my wish list too. Also;
Heather Locklear.
A baseball player.
Sebastian Bach.
Milo Ventimiglia or Alexis Bledel or Scott Patterson – or all 3!
My list with pros. I’m going by the basis all the same pros remain with Jenna for Cheryl.
Dennis Franz (With Witney)
Michael C Hall (With Allison)
Jennifer Carpenter (With Tony)
Michael Weatherley (With Sharna)
Landon Donovan (With Karina)
Kurt Angle (With Emma)
David Schwimmer (With Peta). In fact get any main character from Friends PLEASEEEEE!
Sarah Michelle Gellar (With Val)
Lea Michele (although if she took part, you may as well hand her the trophy before they even start the competition.) Also TPTB would almost certainly give her Val ๐
Michael Phelps (With Allison)
Laura Marano (With Artem)
Taylor Swift (With Keo)
Shakira (With Derek)
Parminder Nagra or Linda Cardellini (With Mark)
Put any of those stars with any pro and I couldn’t complain. Love them all. I could probably think of loads more in time but these were off the top of my head ๐
I see one poster mentioned Zoe Sugg. If Strictly don’t sign her up for their next season then the producers literally need firing. Like Bethany, she would be like a walking cash machine with her fans’ votes and video views. I certainly don’t think we’ve seen the last of Youtube celebs on television shows like this.
He’s at the Allison Holker level, unfortunately.
Curious to know why having Derek and Julianne as cousins would make it unfair….does ballroom training come in the gene pool??
I’m with Ananya – if Maks can get Meryl, then Derek can get Michelle. Maks has had just as many ringers (and Val has had MORE) – not Derek’s fault they can’t pull out a win.
I would love to see Justin Hartley, Adam Lambert, Willie Garson, Tim DeKay, Patrick Muldoon, David Chokachi, Marsha Thomason, Felicity on the Arrow,Kristen from the Beauty and the Beast and Jay Ryan.
For the female stars I’d cast:
Vanna White [Model and Host]
Giada DeLaurentiis [TV Chef]
Audra McDonald or Laura Osnes [Broadway Star(s)]
Jennifer Nettles [Country Singer; Sugarland] (she must have a contract with ABC the way they’ve been using her)
Adriana Lima [Victoria’s Secret Model](A Guy can dream, right?)
Mila Kunis [TV/Film Actress]
For the male stars:
Michael Buble [Singer]
Ted Danson [Actor]
Josh Turner [Singer]
Derek Jeter [Retired Baseball Athlete]
Dean Cain [TV Actor]
Michael Strahan [Former Football Athlete (Don’t ask me what team) and Current TV Host]
Make it happen, ABC ๐
Oh! I forgot to add: I’d love to see Robin Roberts as a contestant. I really loved when she beat cancer, she learned a cha cha and danced it with (Maks?), she’s such a fan of the show and has been a judge, I would love to see her. She’s so fun!
Do you guys think former co-host Samantha Harris would come back as contestant?
To answer your question, it’s because if Mark won with Kristi, and Maks won with Meryl, then it’s highly likely that he’ll win also. I know a lot of people on here want that, but I’d like to see the other pros who work just as hard win either their 3rd, 2nd, or even 1st for season 20. And I’m not devaluing his skill as a choreographer. As for the “Ross Lynch” thing, even though Julianne wasn’t really like this with Derek, there’s a part of me that feels like she goes easy on him.
So in other words, Matt, it sounds to me like you’re saying that if Derek competes on the show for season 20, the only way to make it fair is if they give him a 9p year old woman who if both blind and deaf, with some movement issues, and Julianne isn’t allowed to score any higher than a 4….
It’s not about the pros and if they’ve won or how many times they’ve won. It’s about the celebrity learning skills they’ve not known before, finding a part of themselves they didn’t know, gaining confidence.
As for any of the Lynch family being on, I’m against it, just because I know that there are a lot of people out there, such as you, that immediate start the “unfair” campaign and how they shouldn’t win because they’re cousins to the Houghs who already won too many times.
I love all the wish lists. Many I don’t recognize but so did season 19 but they all surprised me. I just hope we won’t be hearing “so and so hasn’t win yet” or “Derek has won to many” Sooooo? I’m tired of those statements. I wonder if people said that to Michael Jordan years ago because the guy won too many NBA and too many MVP. For season 20 I would like to see Val with a non ringer, no basic dance experience so I can actually appreciate his choreography.
+1 Lori!!!
Thiana, good question about Michael Jordon and I’m tired of the same statements about Derek too. I always wonder when people make statements like that if they have kids and what their talents are and if they would say that they shouldn’t compete or do them anymore since they’ve won too much. Though I’m sure that’s different in some way since it’s Derek. *rolleyes
How about Francia Raisa from Secret Life of the American Teenager. She posted on twitter that she would want to do DWTS. I would love to see her paired with Derek
I love the idea of Nathan Fillion and Stana Katic from Castle!

Er, no, Matt. Not only is that bad logic – Anna lost with Evan, for example, and he was a bigger ringer than Michelle since he was fresh off his Olympics – it’s a bad excuse for not pairing two people up. It’s about the celeb, not the pro.
You want to see who Julianne went easy on?? Check out all her critique of Val and Janel. Please. It’s so obvious that Julianne is a company girl.
As for wanting Derek to win – I’m the biggest Derek fan there is and I don’t even want him on the show anymore. I think he’s beyond it. And if he IS on the show – I don’t care if he wins. You and others like you are PROJECTING.
This isn’t a person that would probably be a contestant but what about Robin Roberts as a Consultant? Like in week one when everyone is kinda nervous, she can come in and go “This is why you shouldn’t be worried yada yada yada”. She has the cool calming vibe to her.
I would also like to add that Michelle has never won an Olympic gold medal, like Evan, Kristi, Meryl & Charlie. So I think it would be great if she went on the show & won – especially with Derek, because I know he won’t disappoint her as a student & us as fans.
As for Derek on the possibility of winning, yet again, another MBT? Well, like others have said, it’s about the celebrity & his or her journey. Personality-wise, I just think Derek would be a better match for Michelle than someone like Val, who comes across (to me) as very intense, serious & kind of full of himself. I feel the same way about Artem, too.
And if a Michelle/Derek partnership DOES win? I’m sure it will be well deserved, unlike Meryl & Maks. In fact, if the TPTB did not intervene so much in S18, I think Charlie & Sharna could have won pretty easily. At least that was the feeling I had in the beginning of the competition.
And yes, I do agree with most on this forum that Derek is too good for the show, but as a recent fan of his (since All-Stars), I’m not done with him just yet. ๐
I wanna see more ice skaters. Sasha Cohen & Sasha Farber is a perfect match. Good height, great flexibility. They can produce very good result.
Regarding the Lynch kids, currently best known as R5 – They all attended performing arts school and have dance training. Probably both extensive and from when they were in the womb judging by their ambition and the family story.
A word about me – Ages ago, when I was young, I was a champion Irish (social styles) dancer. Which requires musicality, precision and high energy. So while I never studied ballroom, I love to dance and watch dancing.
And these comments about Lea Michele of Glee crack me up so much! I both watch the show and follow the actors/ BTS stories. Lea would never consider DWTS unless she was in her 50’s and didn’t have other projects lined up. Glee will finish filming their final season in February. I know Lea has a second self help book and second album coming out after he show ends airing in March and she’s supposed to tour, Europe I believe. However, she wants to get into films (like Dianna Agron) desperately. And Ryan Murphy already bought the rights to revive Funny Girl on Broadway starring Lea Michele but I expect she’ll try to land a big movie role or two before she’ll return to Broadway.
But here’s the thing, Lea is the worst female dancer on the show! She has a magnificent singing voice but Lea isn’t much of a dancer and can be seen to be off the music onscreen!
I also see Chris Colfer on the wish lists but think he’s a pipe dream too. He’s off to England to film a Noel Coward biopic as soon as Glee wraps. Then he has a screen play or two that he’s written himself that he wants to produce and a five or 7 book deal inked already. There’s also a rumor that he’s forming a production company like his mentor’s Ryan Murphy Productions.
From Glee, you have to aim a little lower. Or, at least not for those youthful cast members with the world at their feel. LOL!

I love Lea (my cousins refer to her as my future ex wife becuase I only started watching glee becuase of Her after I saw the first episode lol) but really would not want her on dwts. Apparantly she is a diva or something on the set of glee (something happened with naya Rivera I think) and if she really stays in Ryan Murphys inner circle I think he will make her even bigger than she is now. this isn’t Amber who he only brought back becuase the new kids were boring. This is his favorite one. (as you can tell I’m a major gleek)
In a non glee note lol: what about chum lee from pawn stars? He would be a hoot. I’m not sure if he is as inept as he makes out he is on the show in real life but if anything he would be good entertainment.
Colleen, the number of people who have been contestants on this show who have been to performing arts school and who have dance training of some sort is very, very long and is no longer a reason to exclude someone from the show.
:::rolls eyes::: It’s a WISH LIST, Colleen. No one said it had to be logical or rational. Lea Michelle and Chris Colfer are far more logical and reasonable than others I’ve seen on lists.
Why don’t you try reading the site for a while before jumping in with condescension. Or attempts at condescension, I should say.
Yeah while I agree that Lea Michelle is not at all likely, there’s far more outlandish celebs on these lists that people want – A-listers in prime of their careers and making millions and millions a movie/television season. These are celeb dream lists, and everyone takes a different approach – realistic, semi-realistic, or no-way-in-heck-but-I-still-would-like-to-put-it-out-there celebs.
Sorry late to post on this but there are some great wish lists. Two or three of my favorites would be Tim Allen, Reba, and Tim Tebow. Tim Allen would be great with the one liner jokes (like Tom Bergeron) and Reba would be so bubbley and a hoot and of course Tebow would be so positive; good role model. Way to go mods for your great responses on the D-man!!
Since Alfonso Ribiero was my dream celeb and pretty much made my life last season when he won, I think I’m more fine than ever with whoever they cast next season ๐
Without having read any of the comments, here’s my list (I have ideal pro matches, sorry if that’s against the rules ;))
Malcolm Jamal Warner with Witney
Kel Mitchell with Witney
Zac Efron with Witney
Ben Savage with Allison (will she still be a pro?)
Victor Cruz with Karina
Nick Carter with Karina
Antonio Banderas with Peta
John Stamos with Emma
Wayne Brady with Sharna
Tia & Tamera Mowry (Tamera w/Derek & Tia w/Mark)
Adrienne Bailon with Artem
McKayla Maroney with Val
Ashanti with Val
Ciara with Keo
Alyson Michalka with Mark
Jordin Sparks with Keo
Danielle Fishel with Mark or Derek
Fran Drescher with Tony
Vanessa Hudgens with Val or Derek
I thought of one: witney has had a singer and an actor so far and has done well with them but what if they gave her an athlete next. Like David justice ( i think he might have a shot at being on the show at some point and next season would be great).
Hi #Key I like to pick cast next season.
Zac Efron with Witney Carson
Jordin Sparks with Keo Motsepe
I don’t believe DWTS has ever had a baseball player. I’d like one to appear next season.
Yes Jordin Sparks should definitely be on season 20!

Clinton kelly would be funny. I know his whole claim to fame is clothing and fashion but he really has this “it factor” that makes him probably what probably makes him a great person for a reality tv show.
My list is probably unrealistic, but in all good funny and dreaming:
I’d like to see someone from the MTV Road Rules/Real World Challenge, probably Cara Maria or Evan Starkman.
-Derek Theler (Baby Daddy)
-Taylor Momesen (The pretty reckless/actress)
-Leighton Meester (actress)
-Adam Brody (actor) (be even more fun to see him compete against his wife Leighton)
-Tara Lipinski (ice skater)
Alyson Stoner (actress and accomplished dancer but damnit I love her)
-Lindsay Lohan (actress)
-John Goodman (actor)
-Jamie Chung (actress)
-Macaulay Culkin (Actor)
– Kenan and Kel (stealing from whoever else mentioned Kel)
-Jesse McCartney (singer)
– Me! hehe
My wish list has been echoed by a lot of other people but here goes:
-A broadway actor. It’s been a long time since they had a broadway actor (Marissa Jaret Winokur from Hairspray). I would recommend Kristin Chenoweth, Wilson Jermaine Heredia or Jesse L. Martin from RENT, or Jonathan Groff from Spring Awakening and Glee.
-Stone Cold Steve Austin
-Keisha Knight Pulliam
-Ciara
-Missy Elliott
-Amanda Bynes
-Michelle Kwan
-AJ McClean
@110 Ammie, YES to Lindsay Lohan! Her life is still such a mess it’s not even funny, but maybe the show is the focus she needs to help get her life back together. It’ll be kinda like how it helped Andy Dick with his drinking problem in S16. I’d like to see her paired with Derek. He’s very emotionally supportive and I think he’ll be well-equipped to handle any neuroses. I think it’s a long shot but she’d have one heck of a journey.
@Jane #91, I agree about S18. When the cast was announced I immediately pegged Charlie for the win (who doesn’t love an adorkable blond male?), even though I expected Meryl to be a more versatile dancer. Charlie really has the more endearing personality, and like many of you here I was more impressed with his performances than with Meryl’s. I think Meryl needed the showmance or else her personality would’ve just faded into the background tbh. Things didn’t turn out as expected obviously, but I’m glad Charlie left with his dignity intact. If it weren’t for Amy & Derek I don’t think I could’ve taken watching such blatant producer manipulation all season.
I love how so many people have one of the Backstreet Boys on their wishlist. Love them and would love any of them! Also, I think TPTB hit the nail on the head with sitcom stars the past 2 seasons. They have wide appeal. I’m surprised there haven’t been more on the show. They’re part of the dream cast on nearly everyone’s lists.
Also, I don’t think Derek can win another MBT no matter how popular or talented his partner is. Just based on my experience with casual fans who like him, even they think he’s won too much and want another pro to win. But they think he’s always so great that he & his partner do deserve to be in the finals all the time. Criticize the logic all you want, but the sentiment is still out there.
I wonder how TPTB will handle the “Derek Factor” next season. He’s so well liked & talented he can get anyone at least up to semifinals, but maybe they can’t have him win for fear of looking “questionable”?
As a huge fan of Derek, I’m over him winning. I admit I I haven’t always rooted for him & his partners to win if I had a favorite celebrity. Like this season, I loved Beth & Derek, but I was team Alfonso & Witney the moment the cast leaked up to the finale. Same thing with Season 17- was rooting for Corbin & Karina, but I loved Amber & Derek so I was still thrilled with the results.
I would like to see more broadway actors too! My dream contestant is Cathy Rigby; imagine how epic a Peter Pan themed freestyle could be? She may be 60 but after performing a physically demanding role for over 30 years, I think she could handle it!
My only thing about Lindsay Lohan is this: if she did the show she would have good odds of going home early despite the fact that she probably would be good. I feel bad for her becuase she seems to have gotten her act together (it’s been a really long time since I heard anything about her doing anything loopy) but it seems like people just are waiting for her to act out again. I definately feel bad for her.
In regards to Broadway people, I think that josh had would be a home run. He has the Broadway thing and the frozen thing. Talk about a double whammy.
I would LOVE to see Weird Al doing this, haha!
I don’t exactly have a wishlist, but I wish they would rotate the pros that get the best celebs like in Strictly. First, Emma totally needs to get a great partner for once. If she gets a Bill/Billy/Michael once again? I am so done. Also, can Mark PLEASE stop getting the young/youngish attractive celebs with great bodies? Ever since Chelsea Kane he always got those kinds of celebs (Bristol is debatable though). Even Derek has had Ricki and Amber, and even a woman without feet, and people keeps saying Derek got the best partners! Val too needs to stop getting ringer, Janel is like, what, his fifth consecutive ringers? And he STILL couldn’t win? That should speaks a lot. Derek too, obviously, and I would LOVE to see all three of them getting celebs a la Cloris Leachman to work with, just to see how would they be with the celebs (though very unlikely to happen). /rant
I’d love to see Weird Al doing this though.
LOL I typed Weird Al twice there, I guess that’s how much I wanted him on the show.
@Vin #114
If Lindsay L. has turned over a new leaf in life, this would be the perfect place to show the world her transformation. Even though she has some strikes against her, with the right pro partner and a great new attitude, she just might reach the hearts of the viewers. When a person has hit rock bottom in life, there is no where to go except up, up, up to new and greater levels.
@kreativekat: true but it baffles me that people still hate her as much as they do. Then again if Steveo and Andy dick can do it so can she
debbie gibson she would be awesome on dwts ๐
@Vin: Yes, I agree on the hatred toward her, but there are those who know she lost her way in life and would be so happy to see that she has found the better path. I have enjoyed her movies as a young girl/child and would be one of those who would rejoice. I’ve felt sadness not hatred for her.
There are so many people that would root for Lindsay Lohan to get her act together – everyone loves a redemption arc.
1). Matthew Gray Gubler + Karina.
2). Sandra Oh + Tony
3). Adam Sandler + Whitney.
Ugh why do I have this nasty feeling that Val would get his sixth consecutive ringers (which should be a record) with even MORE skills and experience, like another figure skater? Like Tessa Virtue or something. If he does then I hope he comes out with Derek’s choreo level with Shawn than Maks’s with Meryl. Hopefully it’s not happening though.
1). George Lopez + Sharna.
2). Gabby Douglas + Mark Ballas.
3). Norman Reedus + Peta.
4). Ashley Benson + Val.
5). Jimmy Fallon + Allison Holker.
Seeing the pic of Donald Driver and Peta, I stood in library today and read the chapter from his book on dwts. Bring us some football players again, on a whole they are such good contestants, fun, hard working…
I just watched a clip of Dick van Dyke dancing on Conan O’Brien, and I needed to add him on my DWTS wish list. One of my all-time favorite comedic actors and he’s still fairly spry. He may even given Tommy Chong a run for his money.
What about. C T Tamburello from MTV? CT is tall, strong and athletic. He also has been through a lot of trauma in the last few years which would give him lots to draw upon emotionally.
1).Andrew Lincoln + Emma Slater.
2).T.R Knight + Lindsay
3).Cobie Smudlers + Derek.
4).Lily Aldrin + Louis.
I hope anyone else from greys anatomy,the walking dead, or How I met your mother.

I didn’t realize that Lindsay Lohan had gotten her life on track. Just earlier this year she was having issues. Turns out Oprah intervened & she’s got some stability now. I agree, everyone loves a redemption arc. People may expect a train wreck but I’d imagine she turns out to be a pleasant surprise like Lil Kim was (she’d just gotten out of prison). Lindsay would be an amazing get, but doubtful it could happen.
WISH list (I wish big!)
-Hillary Duff
-Chad Michael Murray

-Bethany joy lenz

It would be really cool to have Wade Robson choreograph!
I am always happy with whomever they cast, but if they did bring in Dick Van Dyke I might actually squeal. The man is 89 and still a hoot – and I always love to hear that people like him are as nice in person. I may have to watch some old episodes of Dick Van Dyke just to subside my Dick craving.
That came out so wrong, but I’m gonna leave it there for giggles.

Kelly Slater (surfer)

I would love it, if Dick Van Dyke was on the show!
What about Tony Orlando or Peter Cetera from the group Chicago.
I think it came out just right, Fig. ๐
I always have an idea and I think “oh my gosh they’d be awesome”…. and then I always forget when I get to the comment section. lol
I will say – Celebrity Apprentice has a kick ass cast. I guess its harder to recruit for DWTS but damn, I was impressed by their list.
It just hit me: what about Leah rememi’s husband? They still have the reality TV show and he is fun to watch on that show. He is almost as funny as her sometimes. Did anyone see thee pails epiaode where he had to buy the earthquake supplies? Hysterical.
While I’m not pulling for Leah’s husband per se, I wouldn’t mind more duo’s – Tia/Tamara, or other brother/sis or couples, even if one is only marginally famous – I liked the Ty/Jewel (before her injury) concept. However, I’d only be okay with it if they didn’t storyboard so much like the Meryl/Charlie thing, where one got the shaft.
@Vin – Yes I did! Too funny! Leah Remini’s husband Angelo is a gem. Great father, great husband, and such a sweetheart. She is one lucky lady.
I like the idea of Ellen Degeneres as a guest judge. I think she also would make a fun guest co-host (interviewing the contestants/pros).
@Sandy: I figured they would want a “reality tv” star and most of those make me want to smack them so maybe they will get one that actually is likeable like him…but then again two really likeable reality tv people on back to back seasons seems like something improbable.
Would really love to see Ty Herndon.

@eric: yoko would be a great pick. I honestly can’t think of anyone who wouldn’t know who she is (I think everyone knows her due to john Lennon but after a quick google search I discovered she sings too…..not sure what to make of that last one lol). I love the idea of Laverne cox too. I watch orange is the new black and had no clue of her backstory. Probably the only person not to know I guess lol. She is super tall it seems so I guess tony or keo would be good for her. I hope they actually do ask her. They took the risk with chaz and it paid off. He made a lot of fans during his run on the show but Laverne might be really good.

@Vin That’s another good one listed with Chumley (sp?) from Pawn Stars! He would be hilarious.
@Misty: Looks right to me lol.
There goes my wish! ๐ Tamera is pregnant. ๐
This seasons Celebrity Apprentice has 4 past DWTS contestants. Shawn Johnson, Vivica Fox, Leeza Gibbons and Kate Gosselin. My thoughts are that we may be seeing someone from Celebrity Apprentice in an upcoming season of DWTS. Maybe Nick Jonas or ex-NFL Terrell Owens (I really LIKE him!)… Or maybe Ian Zewhring (sp. he starred in 90210), Lorenzo Lamas, just to name a few. There are some really great possibilities to choose from. ๐
@Sandy That is interesting how 4 of them end up on that show at the same time.
@Misty – I thought so too! But it wouldn’t surprise me if one of their fellow castmates end up doing the show (or suddenly become a possibility). Keshia Knight Pulliam from the Cosby show would be great.
But there are a few stinkers in the bunch as well… namely Gilbert Godfreid and Geraldo Riviera to name a few.
Actually, there are 5 contestants on the Apprentice that previously competed on dwts – including
Ian~It’s like a mini reunion~lol ๐
Good catch Dee! I focused so much on the women that I completely forgot about Ian. ๐
For me, The biggest surprise of the season thus far has been Terrell Owens. I envisioned his personality to be completely different. I really like him and I hope he goes far…. And if this show doesn’t work out, hopefully he might make his way over to the DWTS studio. ๐
Sandy~
I would love to see Keisha on the show~ I think she’d be a great -determined/passionate ๐
She got fired for the dumbest reason possible. I even have to say that Kate is the most annoying person this season outside of Geraldo and Kevin Jonas ( who really just is a loudmouth). I hope they get Keisha for dwts.
Fingerscrossed! Maybe just maybe Keisha will have the mindset of having something to prove and feel the need to do DWTS. Well… A girl can dream can’t she. ๐
Hope it’s still counting!
1) Raven-Symonรฉ (Now that I’d the pleasure of seeing Alfonso on DWTS, now I need RAVEN!)
2) Camila Cabello (From Girl Group Fifth Harmony – she’s a BEAUTIFUL story of imigration)
3) Sofia Vergara
