Rumor: Several new celebrity moms to join Dancing With The Stars
Although the cast won’t be officially revealed until tomorrow on Good Morning America, TMZ and several other media outlets are reporting that this season will feature no less than three celebrity moms — Jennie Garth, Melanie Brown and Jennie’s former Beverly Hills 90210 alum Tori Spelling. Jennie’s rep confirmed her role on the show already, and we’ve previously reported rumors that Mel. B. would be involved; No word yet from Tori on her MySpace, but in May she told friends she was considering taking a turn on the dance floor, noting that "it’s the best way to lose baby weight."
It is not yet known which women, if any, are alternates and which are considered ‘first-tier’ contestants.
Together, the women have six celebrity babies among them; Jennie is mom to three girls — Luca Bella, 10, Lola Ray, 4, and Fiona Eve, 11-months. Tori welcomed son Liam, 5-months, in March. Melanie B. has two daughters — Phoenix Chi, 8, and Angel Iris, turning 5-months next week.
Previous DWTS mommy-alums include Sara Evans, Lisa Rinna, Shanna Moakler, Tia Carrere, Heather Mills and more.

Don’t forget Shanna Moakler, Tia Carrere, Tatum O’Neal, Rachel Hunter, to name a few more mothers.
Actually if I remember correctly, both Shanna and Tia went on DWTS almost specifically in an attempt to lose the baby weight.

You forgot to add Tia Carrere to the list of moms!

I would LOVE to see Tori and Jeanne on the dance floor! That would be SO much fun! I miss the old 90210 gang and love how they’re all still close friends. Imagine all the silly guests who would show up to support them. CUTE!

Really? Melanie Brown? But the Spice Girls are going on fall in December/January, so obviously they’d be in rehearsals October/November. Unless this new season doesn’t start for a while…
Interesting, nonetheless.

The new season starts September 24th I believe so maybe it would be over before the tour. I think it’s only 10 weeks.

From what I hear melanie brown won’t be a celebrity dancing, but more of a guest judge. Jennie and tori will be dancing, as well as tom brady’s gf giesle I read. This season of DWTS sounds good, can’t wait to see how everyone does.

I’m glad jennie’s going to do it! I would love to see a really good pic of Fiona. Her other girls are precious (they look just like their papa).
And not to mention Peter Facinelli would hopefully be at some of her performances

“DANCING STARS” REVEALED
August 29, 2007
Contrary to leaks about the purported new cast, Gisele Bundchen, Tori Spelling and Aaron Carter will not be appearing on the reality hit, “Dancing With the Stars.”
So who will be twirling and kicking across the famed stage? A Spice Girl, one half of a dynamic duo and an ex-90210 star are just a fraction of the new cast.
And the complete list is…
Melanie “Mel B” Brown, 32 of the Spice Girls (aka “Scary Spice”), Sabrina Bryan, 22, of The Cheetah Girls, Helio Castroneves, 32, a racecar driver, Mark Cuban, 48, owner of NBA’s Dallas Mavericks, Jennie Garth, 35, of Beverly Hills, 90210, supermodel Josie Maran, 29, “All My Children’s” Cameron Mathison, 38, Floyd Mayweather, Jr., 30, boxer, singer Wayne Newton, 65, singer Marie Osmond, 47, male supermodel Albert Reed, 22, and actress Jane Seymour, 56.
For the season debut, the show will air on three consecutive nights its first week, with the cast split into male and female. The six female contestants perform on Monday, and the six males on Tuesday. One contestant will then be sent home on Wednesday’s live results show.
