The highly anticipated cast for *Dancing With the Stars* season 33 has finally been revealed, and it’s packed with big names and unexpected stars ready to hit the ballroom floor.
Fans will see an eclectic mix of celebrities this season, including actress Tori Spelling, *The Bachelorette’s* Jenn Tran, and Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model Brooks Nader, who are all set to bring their charm and competitive spirit to the stage.
This star-studded lineup was announced on *Good Morning America*, and excitement is already buzzing as we approach the show’s September 17 premiere. The competition promises a diverse mix of talent, from sports legends to reality TV stars and even a notorious fraudster.
Among the cast are former footballer Danny Amendola, *Real Housewives of Atlanta* star Phaedra Parks, NBA’s Dwight Howard, and actor Reginald VelJohnson of *Family Matters* fame. Each celebrity is partnered with a professional dancer, and they’ll soon be competing for that coveted Mirrorball Trophy.
One of the most surprising additions to this season is Anna Delvey, the infamous con artist whose life story became the basis for Netflix’s *Inventing Anna*. Delvey, who spent years defrauding banks and wealthy New Yorkers while posing as a socialite, seems eager to show off her skills. Paired with pro dancer Ezra Sosa, Delvey quipped that she’s out to prove how good she is at the Cha-Cha.
Meanwhile, Tori Spelling admitted that while she’s been asked to join the show many times in the past, she’s always been too nervous. But now, at 51, she’s ready to conquer her fears and embrace the dance floor, drawing inspiration from her late *90210* co-star Shannen Doherty. “She always said you got to turn your power on. So I’m doing it now,” Spelling shared.
Also in the lineup is *The Bachelorette* star Jenn Tran, who is hoping to dance away her heartbreak after a tough season finale. She revealed that this opportunity is a dream come true and joked that her one ballroom class in college qualifies as experience. Tran’s enthusiasm mirrors that of fellow competitors, like Olympian Ilona Maher, who’s swapping the rugby field for the ballroom, and Disney actress Chandler Kinney, taking on a new challenge.
In a season filled with personalities from all walks of life, *DWTS* is sure to deliver plenty of memorable moments. Sports fans will be watching closely as NBA star Dwight Howard and Olympic gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik take the floor, with both athletes eager to show they can master more than just their respective sports.
With the return of judges Derek Hough, Carrie Ann Inaba, and Bruno Tonioli, and co-hosts Julianne Hough and Alfonso Ribeiro, season 33 promises to be another entertaining chapter in the *Dancing With the Stars* saga. Whether it’s the dazzling footwork, celebrity drama, or unexpected partnerships, this season is set to be one of the most captivating yet.
As the contestants prepare to lace up their dancing shoes, one thing is certain: there will be no shortage of glitz, glamor, and fierce competition when the show kicks off. Will a sports star take home the Mirrorball Trophy, or could a reality TV favorite waltz away with the win? Stay tuned!
