DWTS Season 23 Media Roundup – Pap And Entertainment Reports And More

Just a media round up to start the day. First, see ABC.com for their top 9 reasons to watch Dancing With The Stars this season. They mention the return of Julianne Hough as a judge even though she wasn’t mentioned in the Disney ABC press release yesterday as Judging. So, I don’t know what to think? But, she looked so pretty at an Emmy event last night.

Below is an Insider report on the new cast of Dancing With The Stars Season 23 and they also chat with a few of them…

Here are a couple of reports on Ryan Lochte. He really gets hounded at the airport by the paps, but, he’s trying to stay positive….

I also ran into this WGN office pool. Hilarious. I wonder who will win?

Speaking of, some of the cast members talked to People about who they think will win. Be sure to read the link for the full article.

“I think Laurie obviously is the one everyone’s got their eye on,” race car driver James Hinchcliffe told PEOPLE of who he views as the potential frontrunner. “Half of what her profession is is dance anyway. And she’s such a great personality, such a fun person, great character, huge smile. It’s easy to love her so on the dance floor and off in the vote world, that’s gonna be tough for sure,” the 29-year-old added.

Professional dancers Sharna Burgess and Lindsay Arnold also agreed. “Oh yeah, she’ll be incredible” Burgess, 31, told PEOPLE. Arnold, 22, added: “I feel like Laurie is gonna be pretty incredible. When you watch her compete in the Olympics, she has so much grace. I would say she’s the most graceful of the 5 that competed so I’m like dang, she’s gotta have some serious moves. I’m assuming she’s gonna be really great.”

Though Maksim Chmerkovskiy joked that he and Amber Rose are the “biggest competition,” he also has his eyes on Hernandez and his brother, Valentin Chmerkovskiy.

And lastly, below is a Pap video with Maks and Amber…

Vogue over and put. More coming. Stay tuned! xx
