DWTS Season 22 Rumor: Scott Disick Considering Dancing With The Stars
Awww, I love TMZ during rumor season. Below they report that Scott Disick is considering an invite from Dancing With The Stars. However, he won’t come cheap. Let us know what you think. If you don’t know who he is, see this link. Note that Scott was also rumored to dance last season and several of us liked the idea.
Scott Disick’s considering a spot on the next season of “Dancing with the Stars” but his cha-cha and rumba don’t come cheap … $500k minimum.
Our ‘DWTS’ sources tell us Scott got the invite for the 22nd season. He’s been asked before, but this time we’re told he showed interest … but set his price at half a mil.
We’re told the ‘DWTS’ honcho who called Scott said there was a strict policy to pay everyone the same amount … although we’re told that’s just not the case. Scott was offered $125k guarantee and if he made it to the finals he’d get $345k.
More at TMZ.
ETA: According to US Weekly, Scott Disick won’t be dancing in Season 22. More below at the link.
Maybe next year? Scott Disick has been asked to appear on Dancing With the Stars “so many times,” a source tells Us Weekly, but he’s not joining the hit ABC reality show anytime soon.
Producers are casting the next season of the show, and TMZ reported on Tuesday, February 16, that the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star had been invited to join the upcoming 22nd season, with negotiations stalling because Disick, 32, wants $500,000 to compete.
But the source tells Us there is “no chance Scott would be on the show,” while a DWTS insider tells Us that ABC “would never give him 500,000.”
They should just pay him it. It’s not like they’re the most ethical fair minded people ever. Plus he does have more star power than most contestants, it makes sense.
Eeewwww. Can’t stand that slime ball. Really don’t want to see him on the show. Crappy people need to stop being rewarded for their crap behavior.
I would loveeee this… I’ve always been wanting to see him on dwts. Scott’s a really funny guy, this should be pretty entertaining.
Ridiculous. I don’t like this idea at all. How about they get more TALENTED people on the show? And what has Scott Disick done with his life to think he deserves half a million for being on a dance show, had babies with a Kardashian? Didin’t realize that was a talent…
He seems like a fun guy and all and he’s been through a lot, but a lot of drama comes with him being on the show. And we’ve had enough Kardashians on dwts…
I feel sorry whoever gets him, he’s a mess. That family is trash, but with the way Rob Wade likes to play I wouldn’t be shocked.
Nope. Also, and I feel I can’t stress this enough, nope.
Funny, I’ve heard all these same comments before about people and more than half the time they turn out great. 😀
I still like him. He’s actually the only tolerable one in the family. He definitely has issues right now – but I honestly don’t know how I would react if I lost both my parents in a month of each other and was an only child.
When it was announced that Rob Kardashian was dancing everyone said the same things and he finished in a well deserved 2nd place. Yes, the Kardashians are extremely over exposed and they’re daily lives are nowhere near normal or sane. But I think if they offered him a spot and he wants to do it, let him do it. PH is right, he has issues, he’s trying to work through them and maybe doing this will help. Losing your parents is hard whenever it happens, but to lose both within in a month has to break a person in some way.
Besides, say what you want, but he has a bigger name and more recognition than a lot of the people they’ve had on the show in recent seasons. I didn’t have to google him to see who he was. He would have to be paired with someone that’s been on the show awhile, like Karina, Emma or Peta. Witney wouldn’t be able to handle him, Lindsey might, Kym could if she were to come back.
There have been a lot of people written off as early outs when they were announced like Bill Engvall, Jack Osbourne, Rob Kardashian and Andy Dick and they all surprised us. I say keep an open mind and give him a chance.
Why should he get more. Don’t particularly care for him one way or the other but I also don’t consider him worthy of more than what they would pay the usual celebs nor do I consider him a STAR.-JMHO
Its sad when his name is considered a draw.
He is not worth that amount of money to sign him. I always hate when people wanna go on for just the money. And not the experience as well. And I feel that’s what he’s doing.
He is the only member of that family besides rob and Khloe that I like so I say bring him on lol. I can just picture him waltzing in with his one liners just having a grand old time. Plus as much as i hate to say it he seems like he would actually be a good dancer and would be a good pick for Sharna.
I’m much more inclined to believe they DO sometimes make sweeter compensation deals than not. How many times has it been in the news that TV or film co-stars are paid way differing amounts due to someone having a great management team? I’d totally believe DWTS has a “standard” contract and that some celebs, hopefully most, are motivated by other factors. Some “names” might even feel it unimportant to negotiate different compensation since IF they are successful actors or athletes, this payout is probably far less than their usual for the time and effort required. And why would someone like Hayes Grier, Vine star earn the same compensation as Robert Herjavec, Janel Parrish or Amber Riley, who were all attached to TV shows during their seasons.
Don’t know much about the guy, but he seems quite slick, so I personally would love to see him undone by the exhaustion from many hours of practice. I would definitely NOT pay him more than the standard. I tend to doubt that some are paid more than others — except, of course, for those who last longer on the show. They all do the same things on the show, so they should all be paid the same. In any event I certainly can’t imagine abc paying more for someone from a show on a competing network. In fact, NOT holding the line on payment would lead to all kinds of chaos, including the kind of not being able to properly budget because you don’t know what your cast will cost. And who is to say who is more/less valuable and why? Utter, utter chaos, IMO.
It’s not like that in the real world, though – if you’ve worked someplace longer, you tend to get paid more. Same goes for experience. Same would likely go for if you’re a big draw or not. The more famous you are, the more you can ask for – because you can afford to walk away.
I would only have two reservations about him being on the show. 1. He seems to have a Peter Pan complex and DWTS doesn’t need any more petulant drama on the show. (assuming he would cause any) I’d just prefer someone a little more grown-up. 2. We’ve seen people with more fortitude than he crumple on the floor in frustration from the physical demands of the show. Since he has a well documented substance problem I would hate to see him use the stress as a catalyst to undo any progress he may have made. Just seems on the risky side to me.
I feel that Scott Disick would be a poor choice for DWTS. He is not a star and doesn’t work. He is an alcoholic and a sperm donor to the Kardashians. Please, let’s have higher standards !!!!
I don’t think now is a good time in his life to be doing DWTS, as he does seem to be trying to get his life back on-track, but I’ll just repeat what I said when he was a rumor last time: I would actually love to see him on the show. He’s hilarious, he’s telegenic, and best of all: he seems to be the only person associated with that family that Kris Kardashian/Jenner/whatever name seems to be making her the most money on a given day cannot control.
Really…is isn’t even worth the 125k what makes him think he could get 500k..is he kidding…that whole family of theirs isn’t worth the 125k if you ask me…please stop begging these non talented people to be on..geez the only good thing out of that family was Rob..really wishing all the Kardashians and Jenners would go away..
