It's that time again; the ABC hit show 'Dancing with the Stars' will be waltzing onto our screens on Sept. 24 at 8pm with as much glitz and glamour as before.
The US version of the international show known as 'Strictly Come Dancing', which was originally a UK show, is commencing it's fifth series and promises to be the "most surprising and biggest season to date" as quoted by abc.com.
Not only is the show competing six ladies and six gentlemen, their largest number of celebrity dancers to date, but during the '3 Night Premiere' the ladies will be competing the fi rst night to strut their heels performing either the Cha-Cha or the Foxtrot to set the standard for the gentleman, who will be competing the following night, Sept 25at 8pm.
The judges scores will be combined with the public vote to then determine which couple will be the first to leave the competition on Wednesday night. You can vote by calling the phone number representing your favorite couple, via text or online on abc.com.
The last series showed a very high level of dancing, considering that the celebrities have little time before the show starts to learn the basics of the dance let alone perform in front of millions of eager viewers every week.
The new female celebrities consist of Scary Spice Mel B, 90210 star Jennifer Garth, Emmy Award winner Jane Seymour, Swimsuit model Josie Maran, Cheetah Girl Sabrina Bryan and the family girl Marie Osmond.
In the second grouping of males, there are Boxer Floyd Mayweather, model Albert Reed,
Mr. Las Vegas Wayne Newton, Indy Car driver and two time Indianapolis 500 winner Helio Castroneves, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban and actor Cameron Mathison. Tom
Bergeron (known for presenting 'America's Funniest Videos') and Samantha Harris (presenter on 'E! Entertainment') will be
presenting the show along with choreographer/director/dancer Carrie Ass Inada, choreographer Bruno Tonioli and Ballroom/ Latin Expert Len Goodman, who will be judging the celebrities.
