DWTS Season 14 Rumor Update On Herman Cain And Michele Bachmann
A month ago, we posted on the far fetched possibilty of politicians Herman Cain and Michele Bachmann dancing on Dancing With The Stars. Well today, AJC.com is reporting that Dancing With The Stars did indeed approach GOP Presidential hopeful, Herman Cain to dance on the show. Below is what his assistant confirmed this morning. You can read more at the link.
A spokeswoman for Herman Cain confirmed this morning that the former GOP presidential candidate was approached by ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars” to appear on this season’s competition.
But Cain nixed the idea. “He can’t dance in an eight-count. He can only dance in a nine-count,” said Lisa Reichert, Cain’s executive assistant.
Nine-count. Get it? 9-9-9.
As for Michele, USA Today and KSTV say she’s been asked and she may be entering the competition.
Michele Bachman and Herman Cain? Producers are said to have extended an invitation to them both to be on the show.
However, Michele Bachmann may soon enter another national competition.
This will be like Bristol Palin dancing all over again. Please no is all I have to say if true. Your thoughts?
Heidi’s Note: Oh come on!! The woman is a sitting congresswoman!! She is not going to do DWTS. She might be prohibited from doing DWTS as a sitting congressperson. And can you imagine the flack she would get for the time commitment to DWTS when she’s supposed to be in DC?? I think this rumor is ridiculous – but hey, Michelle, by all means…compete. I’m sure you’ll get lots of votes and lots of respect as a serious member of congress by doing so. And I ain’t on your team so you go right ahead. 😀
UPDATE: It’s a NO for Michele. Go HERE to listen to her address the new rumors on dancing again. Her reaction is hilarious!!
On Dancing With The Stars Rumor:
You won’t be seeing Bachmann dancing the pasodoble any time soon. Bachmann says there’s there’s no truth to the rumor that she’s been invited to be on the ABC TV show “Dancing With The Stars”.Bachmann says her focus remains getting re-elected to her seat in the Sixth Congressional District.
I am about to get on my knees and pray to God that neither of these is going to happen…but I think Heidi’s right about Michelle being a sitting congresswoman. Of course, if she doesn’t win her seat again in November, we may be back here talking about her this time next year.
Herman Cain might be funny to watch, but I’d rather they ask someone who’s a bit more “removed” from the political scene and not someone so recent. Just my 2c.
NO, NO, NO to any politicians whatsoever. Worse season ever when Bristol was on. It took all the joy out of the show.
Mm-mm-mm (while shaking my head)
LOLLLL to all of you!!!!
I love DWTS. If Bachman ever comes on, I won’t watch the show. In my opinion, the woman is just hateful. You’d think they would have learned their lesson from the you-know-what-storm that was Bristol competing.
Sometimes it’s very disheartening to contemplate that the producers would sacrifice every ounce of good spirit and good dancing on the show if it resulted in huge ratings and controversy. I understand that it’s the reality of television, but still.
Only 3 politicians that I want to c on the show (and its never going to happen cuz they are kinda big names since two r presidents and the other is probably the only politicsrealtedperson that I would ever want to meet that isn’t a president) are Pres. Clinton, Pres. G.W. Bush, and Rudy Guliani.
No to the rest of them lol
@Sandy: In all fairness, Bristol wasn’t that bad. Towards the end she annoyed me but that season definately wasn’t the weakest season. I would give that honor to donny’s season since the celeb dancers weren’t that great but had big personality.
I agree steve – not to mention Bachman makes Palin look like a Rhodes Scholar.
I’m with @Magnolia – I’ve been praying, burning incense, and chanting to all of my dead relatives in an attempt to get some “Please, No Bachmann” karma working…. 8) Let’s hope that “sitting Congressional Representative” thingy stops her in her tracks! I know that if my weasel…. err, umm… Congress-person… went on DWTS, I wouldn’t vote for him – but then again, he’s already announced he’s not running, so I guess the point is moot. 😉
Wonder why rags are spinning this rumor….she laughed at the questions and made a “Mark-like” duck face when asked about it at that Cpac conference. She’s def not doing it.
Sheery, to be honest if im reading you right and thats how she responded to those questions about DWTS it makes me wonder why she wouldn’t just say ” No im not doing DWTS ” makes me wonder. She wouldn’t…would she? Il’l see if I can find a video of that confrence. Btw just saw a cool new promo for the cast reveal on ABC, Maks and Cheryl are the new featured pros it looks like. 🙂
Oh Zach, we need that commercial!!!! *goes to search for it*
I know! They just showed it on a commerical break between GMA…
Cool. For now, I can’t find it on the internet yet. Hopefully, it’s going to pop up here shortly. 🙂 Thanks for letting us know on it.
Media update to the first post!! Michele addresses DWTS rumors again. (LOL!!)
I know this is slightly mean but I really hope she loses reelection too lol She is just not the sharpest crayon in the box should pull a sarah palin and just go away
Question: Does anyone know if Tom knows the cast yet? Just wandrin. 🙂
Well there you go! She’s already won a dancing competition! LOL Thanks for the update Vogue!
LOL, hilarious! YW Meggie!!! 😉
#16 Vin- Love that “not the sharpest crayon in the box”!
Gotta remember that for future descriptions of many folks. Gave me a Wednesday smile I needed. LOL
@RebeccaW: NP lol I got that from “Hey Arnold” LOL (just got the series on dvd……best cartoon ever besides “Rocko’s Modern Life” lol).
@vin WHERE DID YOU FIND HEY ARNOLD?!?! I found SOME episodes on I-Tunes but no DVD’s. Art thou a 90’s kid?!?!? 😀
@nathan: barnes and nobles. com has season 1 and season 2 part 1 🙂 I was born in 1990s so I saw all of them nick shows from the start.
in 1990* iphone corrected that to in the 1990s lol
Checking barnes and noble NOW!!! Thanks Vin! I grew up in the 90’s (born in ’89) so I miss the old shows!!! You know, the old shows that actually had character development, actual dialogue and was probably a little mature for our ages (Come on, we ALL KNEW Helga’s mom was an alcoholic). Thanks again, btw, I totally just finished watching one of my favorite “Hey Arnold” episodes entitled “Helga on the Couch”. LOVE THIS SHOW..
(ANNOUNCER)
And now, we return to our current programming (DWTS) already in progress…
Sadly, I remeber that episode. The thing I remember msot though from the show (and its kinda hard to forget) is Helga punching the kid who randomly pops up and breaths heavy behind her lol.
Brainy!!!!
That’s it! I’m buying that DVD!!!!! LOL
