First Dancing With The Stars Season 21 Celebrity Reveal On Good Morning America On Monday
WHA?? Not sure what’s up, but, tonight, George Pennacchio tweeted that the first celebrity reveal for Dancing With The Stars Season 21 would be announced on Monday. Cool beans, but, I swear this show is going to give me a heart attack. 😯
ETA: Could this be a possibility? Thanks to Dari for the heads up!
ETA2: Could it be someone from Good Morning America? As Miss Heidi and I both posted in comments, Derek mentioned or implied in a “Move” meet and greet this summer that his partner last season was suppose to be someone from GMA, but, this person changed their mind at the last minute.
ETA3: Thanks to @IdolXfactor1 for recording this new TV promo….
Maybe someone like Nick Carter who has already 90% let the cat out of the bag already? Or someone that for whatever reason can’t attend the date of the full celeb reveal? #SleuthModeON
Could it be one of the GMA presenters?
Robin would probably be my best bet.
@M8 My first thought was Nick Carter as well. The rumor of him being on has been solidified ever since he followed DWTS on Twitter.. or at least I think so.
I do, however, hope it’s someone out of the blue that has yet to be rumored. That would be exciting 😀
If it’s a GMA person, that is interesting because Derek mentioned at one of his meet and greets this summer that his partner last season was suppose to be someone from GMA, but, they chickened out at the last minute.
Has Andy Grammer mentioned?
On Shay Mitchell’s Snapchat today she filmed something in the morning on a different set before going to film PLL. All you see from the “other set” I’m assuming are her shoes and the words “Stay tuned…”. Could it be her possibly?! I know she’s been a rumor this season so maybe!
Or maybe I’m reading into nothing here. I just found it kind of interesting that she does that then later it’s announced that a celeb will be revealed Monday.
We will have to see! She’s a pretty huge get if she’s on the show.
I wouldn’t think much of Bethany’s tweet if it didn’t have the “dancer” emoji. That’s usually pretty telling…
I would love for her to be on! Her story is amazing and, well, SHE is amazing. I also have a feeling she would be pretty good 🙂 I hope this is true!
I have no idea who Bethany Hamilton is but based solely on her tweet above I like her already.
Huh??? Is DWTS opting for the Strictly “celeb-a-day reveal” this season?
lol Sure seems like it, Cids. What’s funny is ….I think Nathan was tweeting the DWTS account about it a few days ago that they should do the reveal like SCD.
@Vin She lost her arm to a shark when she was 14 or so. Excellent surfer. I just posted vid on my Twitter and Vogue RT
If Bethany Hamilton is on this season I will be so happy! The only time I watched the Amazing Race was when she and her husband were on. She is cute, sweet, and is a strong competitor. She worked hard. I think they placed 2nd. She really is amazing and has a strong faith. The movie about her is one of my daughter’s favorites. I hope this is true. Most of all if it is I hope the show treats her and all the celebs with respect.
Too funny! I never guessed Nathan had that kind of power over TPTB 😀
@Vin
You may have heard of “Soul Surfer” before. No? Either way, it’s a beautiful movie that tells her story 🙂 If she’s on the show, I’m sure you, and others, will fall in love with her.
She is a tall woman… so her partner has to be one of the taller guys. Artem or *gulp* Tony or… *bigger gulp* Keo. I’ll take her with Artem. I’m not sure Keo would be the best teacher for her (dude couldn’t even teach two women with all their limbs properly). Tony would be good but, I like her too much to be with Mr. Boring Choreography. So, I hope that isn’t the case.
Ginny, here’s the rumor on Andy: https://www.puredwts.com/2015/07/17/dwts-season-21-watch-out-andy-grammer-asked-to-do-dancing-with-the-stars/
Wow She is tall 5’11” Bethany also had a baby in June so I don’t know if she’d do it. The article I was reading about her also said that she was surfing while 6 months pregnant so you never know. How tall is Artem. Of all the tall guys he’d be my choice. He was great with Patti
CC NY: Great spot with the dancing emoji, I didn’t notice that at first on Bethany Hamilton’s tweet. If she was on surely DWTS wouldn’t dare trust Keo with her, although I can see them trusting Tony. More realistically I’d say Derek would be her partner but you never know really.
You guys had me at surfer. I’m all for the extreme sports stars out there so this just gets better and better. Definately going to watch the soul surfer. Thanks for the info guys 🙂
She’s a great person no doubt, but I’d like to have a season free of the judges patronizing someone because of physical limitations.
Since Bethany is 5’11”, isn’t Tony the only pro who is tall enough to dance with her?
She would be fun on the show but I don’t see how someone with a 3 or 4-month old baby could spend that much time away from the new baby.
Derek said or implied (not sure which) that his original partner for last season was a GMA anchor. As we know, she backed out at the last minute. Maybe she’s changed her mind again? Lara and Robin would both be too tall for him – maybe Ginger Zee? But she’s very pregnant right now, isn’t she?
Shay Mitchell is so NOT a huge get. A huge get is…Nick Carter or someone else that a large majority of the audience knows. That is not Shay.
Bethany responded to someone saying DWTS with a “that would be fun!” – which makes me less inclined to believe it.
Too tall for Derek, M8.
OH NO! 🙁 With all due respect to the handicap people…I FEEL they shouldn’t be on the show. A lot of people throw away sympathy votes towards them even if don’t deserve, ie. Noah! I still can’t be over the proposal he made to his GF during semi finals which got him in the finale over Nastia who danced 2 perfect scoring beautiful routines! He barely even danced ..and most of his dances looked the same yet he knocked out 2 great dancers like Nastia/Willow!!
#10 #13. Did I? I never recall such a thing but if I did never underestemate my powers.
Yes, you did. lol
-Read somewhere Tony recently started following Michelle Visage (friends w/Leah Remini)
-Artem w/an olympian? Allison Baver?
-Jodie Sweetin, actress Full House. With Val?
-Kacy Catanzaro, gymnast 5′ tall approx 100 lbs. With Mark?
-Nick Carter?
-Scott Disick?
-Nick Jonas?
-Kaitlyn Bristowe, 5’4″ Bachelorette?
-Shay Mitchell 5’7″?
Yeah, lets give Val another PLL. Please ENOUGH with them. It was bad enough when Vajanel happened.
Mea, maybe Kacy is Derek’s partner as she recently followed him this week.
Ah yeah @mea! I just checked Michelle’s twitter and she indeed followed Tony! Gosh ..i love her …she’s such a drama queen but entertaining as hell! Looks like an ideal Tony partner! I hope she’s on ..:)
And i want Kacy to be with Sasha instead. Derek just recently had a gymnast partner -Nastia..this time i want him to be with a movie star!
BTW, Kacy also favorited some DWTS related tweets…don’t know whether she’s on or not? Hope she’s on with Sasha..PLEASE!! 🙂
I wouldn’t be surprised if Val got Jodie. Someone was telling me on twitter that she’s done a lot of dancing and is quite good. Take it for what it’s worth. In my short search I couldn’t confirm that but I only spent 5 minutes on it. Of course, she’s married with children so he won’t be so lucky with the silly shippers.
There seems to be a somewhat rampant belief among some of these people that if they get people talking about them in connection with DWTS, that it could actually come true. So I wouldn’t put too much stock in retweets or favoriting. Call me cynical – but that’s what people do who WANT to be on the show and not so much what people do when they are ON the show.
If there’s a bit of a benchmark for deciding who the real and fake rumors are, re: the Bethany Hamilton tweet, she just started following the Official DWTS twitter, so I think she’s on for sure.
Be interested to see who her partner would be. She seems like a good match for Mark, IMO.
@CM If she was shorter I would say she’s a great fit for Mark too but sadly she’d probably tower him with heels 😛
I said she’d be a good fit (height wise) with Artem but apparently he’s 5’10. I think he’s taller than that.. no? I’m not sure I wanna believe Google.
Thinking about it, I guess I wouldn’t mind her with Tony. His choreo may be boring, but maybe she’ll inspire him to come up with more fun, creative dances. She may be exactly what Tony needs…
That’s not a benchmark, CM. People who like DWTS and who want to be on DWTS also follow.
I think ya’ll are getting a bit carried away on the twitter thing. This happens every season and it’s rare that celebs figured from just who they follow end up being on the show. There is usually MORE than that involved.
@CC NY, Yes, I just saw she was that tall. I didn’t realize. I saw a picture of her with Amy Purdy a few months ago, and Amy towered over her. I guess it was the shoes Amy was in.
I guess she’d be okay with Tony. He’s patient which is what you would need in that kind of situation.
Bethany would be too tall for Artem as he’s 5’10 so either Shay or Allison would suit him! Bethany would be ideal for Tony, Val or Keo height wise!
Val isn’t much taller than Artem or Derek – in fact, I’ve gotten the impression from watching them that he’s shorter than Derek by a hair.
Never go by pics – they’re very deceptive! Just googled heights – Val is taller than Derek – he’s 1.83m whilst Artem & Derek are 1.78 m
Maks is 1.88m followed by Tony (1.85m) then Val (1.83m) & as I said Artem is 5’10 (1.78m)
Enough said!
LOL!!! Never go by Google!! Anyone can lie about anything on there. Val is not that much taller than Derek, trust me.
You crack me up – yeah, the internet is ALWAYS right. Like when it said Derek and Mark were living together, when what they were doing was flipping a house. Like all the people they have Derek dating.
Literally funniest thing I’ve read all day. I have some swamp land in florida for you….
ETA: I forgot…Enough said! Sounds pretty snotty when it’s directed back at you, doesn’t it?
I’m a huge RuPaul’s Drag Race Fan so if Michelle Visage did the show, I’d be extremely happy. She’s feisty but also has a warm earth mama vibe.
Yeah Val in that god awful “Whip and Nae Nae” more like no no trailer he was barely the tallest. Heck Zendaya and Lizzie BL dwarfed him. Anyway on Ye Olde Twitter thingy some people fail to grasp that celebs are also fans of TV shows. That Nick Carter fellow might like Sharna and be a fan of her specificly. The Twitter thingy is also a topic of discussion over here in the UK and nothing ever really becomes of it.
Nl, Mel B managed a pretty good DWTS showing with a few month old child whilst touring with Spice Girls, so maybe on Bethany?
As for any GMAers that might have defected last season, maybe it was Lara wanting to keep a lower profile amidst divorce?
