The rumors are coming fast and furious for Dancing with the Stars season 24 ahead of the official cast reveal on Wednesday, March 1. The latest new additions include a Real Housewife and a former cast member of Saturday Night Live.
According to E!Online, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Erika Jayne and SNL comedian Chris Kattan will both compete on DWTS season 24.
Nancy Kerrigan and More Join DWTS Season 24>>>
Jayne is a 45-year-old singer who joined the cast of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in season 6. The Bravo franchise has been a popular go-to source for DWTS contestants with Kim Zolciak and Lisa Vanderpump. However, none have done particularly well, with NeNe Leakes finishing in seventh place as the best performance of any Real Housewife.
Kattan, 46, is best known for his time on SNL during the ’90s with his memorable characters like Mango and one of the Roxbury guys alongside Will Ferrell.
So far, this is the list of leaked and rumored names. Not all of them are confirmed, so take with a bit of a grain of salt as you get to the bottom of the list.
-Olympic gymnast Simone Biles
-Olympic figure skater Nancy Kerrigan
-Fifth Harmony member Normani Kordei
-Mr. T
-Possibly Bachelor Nick Viall
-Possibly Pretty Little Liars star Ashley Benson
That still leaves a few pots open, especially for the men. As for the pros, in addition to Maks and Peta, it seems Val, Witney and Sharna are all back as well. People also reports that Jenna Johnson, who became a pro last season, will not return as a pro for season 24.
