Maria Menounos Has Been Cast
According to a report from TMZ.com, Extra host Maria Menounos will be a contestant in Dancing with the Stars season 14. This marks the fourth leaked celebrity name for the season: Maria Menounos joins Melissa Gilbert, Sherri Shepherd and Jack Wagner as reported dancers for DWTS season 14.
Although she is best known for being the co-host (with Mario Lopez) of the entertainment “news” show, Extra, Maria Menounos also has an extensive acting career (albeit in bit parts). She has appeared in such TV shows as Without a Trace, One Tree Hill and Scrubs. Internationally, Menounos is best-known as a presenter of the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest.
Who will Maria dance with? No clue. But we’ll find out soon!

Who’s Got Maks?
Despite rumors that Maksim Chmerkovskiy would not be returning to Dancing with the Stars season 14, there is now confirmation that the controversial dancer will come back. TMZ.com asked the professional dancer directly and got an affirmative answer. Then, in true paparazzi fashion, the same source trailed Maks to the studio.
Where he met… Melissa Gilbert.
Granted, this is hardly confirmation that Maksim Chmerkovskiy will be dancing with the former Little House on the Prairie star. But it does look like we may soon see Mad Maks yelling at sweet little Laura Ingalls…
