DWTS Season 17 Rumor: More On Gabby Douglas, Finalizing A Deal??
Another rumor….and this time more on Olympic gymnast Gabby Douglas! As you might remember, we posted on Gabby as a “watch out” last week. Now @GymCastic at twitter is reporting they have “multiple sources” who are “confirming that Gabby Douglas’s deal with DWTS is being finalized this week.” Not sure how true this is or how reliable they are (adding: though they sound kind of like “After Buzz”?)? As always, take ALL RUMORS with a grain of salt until the cast announcement next week. Thanks to @LaLaLexie22 for this find!!

This makes me so excited! Still wish it was McKayla since she’s the most personable… but at least it’s someone with more of a personality than Aly!
Maybe she’s the “surprise” mentioned on the commercial?
…meant the “big announcement”….wasn’t Jacoby the announcement last season?
I wonder if this was the reason for the Sasha/Gleb mix-up.
@sheery, I could be wrong but I think the “big reveal” last season was Sean Lowe, who wrapped up his Bachelor season around the same time the cast was announced. There was also a lot of speculation about Peta being in or not, only to be announced later on as Sean’s pro partner.
Could this “surprise” that’s somewhat referenced in the commercial be a 13th contestant?
Is there a difference between a “surprise” and a “twist”? “Twist” is used in the promo. For me, a 13th contestant would be a surprise, but not a twist. I think it might be something related to the move to one night a week, something about how they’ve decided to handle eliminations. That, to me, would be a twist.
maybe the surprise would be someone like Lindsay Lohan or Stevie Wonder???
britney spears tweeted about a surprise next week. what if she is the surprise!!! wow hahaha
All I can say is that if Gabby IS on the show this season, MARK BETTER NOT BE HER PARTNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know most people won’t be upset, or claim he’s being given special privileges, or “he always gets a ringer” or any of the other stupid things that they claim about Derek even when he gets celebrities with two left feet that he teaches dance well….
But……….
THREE GOLD MEDAL OLYMPIANS??????????????????????????? And 2 back to back????????????
How is that not special treatment, I don’t know.
I mean three gold medal gymnast Olympians….. I just forgot that and couldn’t catch the post in time after I submitted…..
If Mark gets Gabby, this will be his fourth gold medal Olympian.
But, Lori….his Markettes think it’s deserving because they (producers) treat him like the stepbrother to “Golden Boy” Hough…rotflmao.
Re: surprise…
I just meant that they announced Jacoby via a special commercial…it felt like he was the “big get” for that season.
