Dancing With the Stars betting remains a popular pastime and the new season cast was announced Monday. Those who will be dancing include former Republican Majority Leader, Tom DeLay and poker playing super model Joanna Krupa.
They will be joined by entertainer Donny Osmond; singers Mya, Macy Gray and Aaron Carter; actors Melissa Joan Hart, Debi Mazar and Ashley Hamilton (son of George); model Kathy Ireland; reality stars Kelly Osbourne and Mark Dacascos ("the Chairman" on Food Network's "Iron Chef America"); mixed martial artist Chuck Liddell; professional snowboarder Louie Vito; Olympic swimmer Natalie Coughlin; former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Irvin and the 62-year-old former congressman from Texas.
Host Tom Bergeron also unveiled a new competitive twist during an appearance on "Good Morning America".
"In the middle of our season, over three weeks, we're going to have double eliminations," said Bergeron. "We'll lose about half of our cast within that period. It will be a ballroom bloodbath."
Samantha Harris returns as co-host, with the panel of judges including ballroom judge Len Goodman and dancer-choreographers Bruno Tonioli and Carrie Ann Inaba.
The ninth season of the hit ABC show premieres Sept. 21. Betting on Dancing With The Stars will be offered at BetUS.com
