DWTS Season 10 – Rumors, Speculation and FEAR on Feb 24th
Why the odd title you ask? Well, I finished a big project at work today and I was scanning my usual places for info – and some of it is scary. A lot of it probably just unfounded rumor. And it all caused me to speculate. 🙂 And I had to put a date on it because I post rumors all the time!
What is frightening me today is the sudden resurrgence of Kate Gosslin as a potential celebrity. I can handle Pam Anderson. But Kate? Please, no. Kate mentioned on Jay Leno quite a while ago that she would be interested and now that is popping back up from a different source – The NY Daily News. I was really scared at first – until I read the article and realized they are just rehashing rumors/speculation/stars wishing that I wrote up a long, long time ago (in DWTS years).
In other news – Anna D. is out for this season, to no one’s surprise. That puts the professional dancer roster at:
Cheryl
Chelsie
Anna T
Edyta
*Either Kym or a new female*
Derek
Damian
Mark
Maks*
Louis
Tony*
*not 100% as certain of these two that others are.
As I speculated in my previous post on the pros, I think there might be a new female pro to fill the fifth spot. So lookie what I see when I study the old Tweetdeck??
Anyone have a scoop on Snow *other* than DWTS?? Fill me in. 🙂 I also saw that Access Hollywood said that Kym was “most likely not” coming back for Season 10 – no clue on the veracity of that one.
Speaking of the pros (again) Derek, Cheryl and Louis are pimping the heck out of The Bachelor (well, it’s relative for Derek – he’s not much of a tweeter these days) to the point that I think they might be getting paid to tweet. 🙂 Hey, it happens.
Yo, Lacey fans – I feel your pain, really I do, but spamming Twitter with requests that people sign a petition to keep Lacey on the show not only won’t work, but it’s highly annoying. She needs to have a PARTNER to be on the show and apparently they didn’t find her one. One won’t magically appear because of a petition. I’m sorry you don’t get to see your favorite – but it’s too late now to do anything about it! They know she’s popular – girlfriend was in Design a Dance season before last!
Guess who was on a plane to LA either last night or the night before (I lose track of time when on a big project)? Jason Chambers. 🙂 Please, god….
Then there’s Chad Ochocinco. Did anyone watch The Daily 10 the other night? I didn’t, but there was a sudden buzz on Twitter of people asking Chad if he was going to be on DWTS “for real” – one lovely gentleman gave the explanation for the sudden buzz and mentioned that he “saw it on The Daily 10”. Like Jason Chambers, I have not had time to do a little investigative work to see if that’s true. Like I said – a lot of these entertainment shows just report the same rumors that I hear and until you really sit down and watch the show, or look up the article, you don’t know. So….I don’t know. 🙂
Like I said – I haven’t had time to ferret out more info on any of this stuff. But I’m free tonight. And I’m not a big AI fan. 🙂
How did you find out that Karina’s not coming back i really want to know because a month ago she said that she is coming back
how do you know karina’s not coming back
Well, Snow is dancing at the Oscars…..I don’t know if that would be considered a new job? Something to consider…
It makes sense if it was Snow because she went on tour with DWTS, was in the pro-dancer competition with Anna D, and is really good friends with Maks, so I could see this being true
She said so on Twitter. 🙂 Like…yesterday or the day before.
Snow is good friends with all of them, I think. I know she danced with Derek on tour a few years ago – possibly his first tour. It would make sense, plus I don’t know if a dance on the Oscars would be that big a deal, since it’s likely she wouldn’t be the focus.
How do you know Anna Demidova is not coming back?
Good catch on Snow. Are we sure there is only 11? Don’t we just have Louis’ word for it?
Y’know, I think the professionals not knowing was all staged to take some pressure off the celebrities lol.
Hmmm….I can’t remember where I heard that. Could have been Louis, but it seems like I read it somewhere else too. But the way things are shaking out, it seems to be correct, Who knows?
rebecca read it on her facebook page – although I could not confirm that. I saw several people mention it on twitter as well.
Is everyone ignoring that Snow was on the first season of SYTYCD? She got eliminated after the top 12 after being in the bottom every week. Prior to that she represented the US at worlds a bunch of times, so ballroom-wise she’s the real deal. And the she popped up again in the pro dancer competition and got eliminated first after almost knocking Genya Mazo’s teeth out. I like her and her tattoo’d on eyebrows.
ease up on Lacey fans! If they somehow “could not find a partnter” for Derek, I am quite sure you might start a few petitions yourself. I don’t buy this finding a partner rationale b/c there is now way that DWTS would not let the three amigos of Derek, Julianne, and Mark not come back if they all decided they wanted to do a season. Julianne not being there is her choice.
You would be very wrong, Jeanmom – I understand how the show works. Plus, most Derek fans are VERY well aware that he won’t be on the show forever and that he could follow Julianne at any time. We are making the (probably correct) assumption that he’s got other irons in the fire – as does Lacey, for that matter. Most of us are ready for that to happen at any time – we discuss it all the time and hold our breath waiting to see if he’ll be on. That’s just the way it is. If other fans were to start a petition, I certainly wouldn’t promote it. In this instance it’s pointless.
A petition might be useful for Season 11 – but not for 10. I think Lacey will probably be back next season – the media are making it sound like she quit, but they are stupid. If you believe that Lacey is out of favor with the producers (and I DON’T) then a petition would help for Season 11 – but I think, baring injury or illness, that Season 10 is pretty much set. They’re recording the announcements today to air on The Bachelor on Monday.
I don’t want EITHER Pam Anderson or Kate Gosslin. UG Pam Anderson is just sick.
I’d be okay with Snow, though I’m still kind of confused why they need new pros when they have old pros willing to do the show…
Brooklyn Decker might be on DWTS. check out her twitter

Katrina,
New pros on the show can breathe some life into the show. Sure, it’s nice to have a stable of the pros who have kind of become the stars of the show, but new pros make things more lively too. Imagine if they’d never brought Lacey in in the first place. Her addition that season was really interesting. Plus, Alec coming back last season was an interesting story line as well. So, having the stars come and go is good for the show.
In regards to Snow (and by extension Lacey, Dmitry, Chelsie… and others to an extent). One thing I noticed is that DWTS is also pulling ballroom talent from SYTYCD. As someone mentioned earlier, Snow’s from Season 1 of SYTYCD… Dmitry was S2, Lacey was S3, and Chelsie was S4…
The thing that those particular ballroom dancers have done that the seasoned pros haven’t is that they bring to the table with them a pre-existing fan base that’s carried over from the other show. This new “breath of fresh air” becomes a win for the DWTS because new talent w/ pre-existing fanbases equates to more viewers.
Anna D I didn’t really expect to come back for this season because as popular as she seemed to be during the mini comp to determine the new pro, she didn’t really shine as much when the actual season happened. While as those from SYTYCD are proven “personalities” so to speak.
So to me… I wouldn’t be surprised if down the road we would also see: Ryan DiLello, Ashleigh DiLello or Karen Hauer in upcoming seasons. Though personally I would love to see Maksim Kapitannikov or Faina Savich given a chance to shine in DWTS… but that’s just me.
John, I understand that but I COMPLETELY agree with Marianya. I wish they’d quit pulling from that other show.
I Have seen on various sites that a girl named ashley will be on as a pro dancer but they are not completely sure if it is ashly delgrosso or a new female pro , and who knows just like Marianya said it might even be Ashleigh Dilello .
Only problem with your theory, Marianya, is that Snow was also on tour with DWTS I think before anyone cared about SYTYCD – I think she was on the tour that was Derek’s first which was before DWTS season 5. THAT’S most likely her connection to the show. I don’t think they are intentionally pulling from SYTYCD, I think they are looking for good dancers. If they were all that interested in the SYTYCD dancers and their fanbases (and really, Dmitry’s isn’t that big compared to Derek, Maks, Mark and Cheryl) they would have worked much harder to get Lacey and Dmitry on the show THIS season – it’s not like they’ve been around forever. Instead, we have the seasoned pros almost exclusively – who have ardent FANS, which also bring audience.
Additionally – the addition of Dmitry, Chelsie and Lacey has Not resulted in a bigger audience – that is easily quantifiable. Although still the number two show on TV, the numbers have been down. Not by alot, but still down. Plus I’ve seen on several message boards complaints about SYTYCD dancers – that they often don’t have the cred that ballroom snobs find important (that seems mainly directed at Lacey – not that I care, I like who I like and they’re all talented).
The producers have to be very careful in the handling of the pros anymore. A breath of fresh air has to be balanced against some pretty serious fanbases for the professionals.
Heidi –
Yeah I know that there are loopholes w/ my theory… that’s why it’s a theory… I apologize if it sounded like fact, that wasn’t the intent.
I get more of a kick trying to figure stuff out sometimes… =D
So for the sake of arguement it’s clear that it’s nothing else but more rumors?
I kid, hmm… Snow Urban on DWTS seems a logical fit. To resurface, why Snow? Yes she is qualified; however, if the need a girl they should’ve kept Karina or Anna D.
For those that may ask “why not Kym?” if she isn’t on it’s probably due to personal choice like Julianne, but thats juat what I think.
Hedi, Snow has also done work with Tony and Maks’s “Ballroom Dance Channel” (ballroomdancechannell.com)

So it’s not for DWTS, apparently.
I think I know Cheryl Burke’s partner for season 10. It’s gonna be San Diego Chargers player Kassim Osgood. He left quite an interesting tweet just a few minutes ago.
As an NFL fan I can’t say I have heard of Kassim Osgood. Larger than life? Terrell Owens, yes! Chad OchoCinco, yes! Osgood NO!!
Having looked Osgood up on the net, he is a Special Teams stand out rather than a first team wide out. So, I’d rate him as a D-list NFL player esp compared to Hall of Famers like Rice, Smith, Taylor and Irvin.
This is not Osgood news for DWTS. Hopefully his tweet is a joke.
Colin
Based on the whole series of tweets and what was said, I’m not sure he’s going to be her partner, or if he was just partying with Cheryl and Shannon Elizabeth (the two new besties) last night. Cheryl and Shannon were definitely together and he re-tweeted something about them. I guess we’ll see. I’ll keep an eye on it and post it later.
Osgood is such a spare part at the Chargers that it would be like DWTS selecting J Peterman from all of the Seinfeld cast. Oh wait … !
Colin
No snow, talked to her on FB, here’s the convo
