Margaret Cho

“Dancing With the Stars” revealed its next celebrity dancers tonight during a nationally televised news conference on ABC.

The women are actress-singer Brandy, “Dirty Dancing” star Jennifer Grey, comedian Margaret Cho, Audrina Patridge of “The Hills,” “Brady Bunch” star Florence Henderson and Bristol Palin, daughter of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. Cho was the surprise; all the others had been rumored last week.

The men are singer Michael Bolton, Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino of “Jersey Shore,” David Hasselhoff, former quarterback Kurt Warner, Disney Channel star Kyle Massey and former basketball star Rick Fox. They had been rumored to be taking part.

Hasselhoff said his two daughters love “Dancing” and persuaded him to the show. He said “Dancing” would be harder than the recent Comedy Central roast.

Bristol Palin said her mother is excited for her. Will Sarah Palin be in the ballroom? “Hopefully,” Bristol said.

Grey said “Dirty Dancing” fans shouldn’t have unreal expectations about her abilities. “I’m 50. It’s been a lot of years,” she said.

As the short news conference started, host Tom Bergeron joked, “We’re all about keeping it low-key.” ABC dragged out the announcement during a particularly boring episode of ”Bachelor Pad.”

The new season of “Dancing With the Stars,” the most popular series in Central Florida, starts at 8 p.m. Sept. 20 on WFTV-Ch. 9. The casting on “Dancing” is crucial to ABC. The show is the most popular one on the Disney-owned network.
