Whats moving to Seven??

[turdall]

Look at the article. Clearly a joke as peter ford made a mistake stating it was coming to 7.

If only Lee Lin Chin, Russell Coight and Tim Bailey could go on DWTS. Social media would go nuts.

Agreed, although I personally would’ve said that Sandra Sully might also have made for a great contestant.

@JBar

But wouldn’t the Ten hosts be People You’ve Never Heard of in the Media?

Perhaps, but at least it’d make for good network cross-promotion opportunities.

@SydneyCityTV

seems like a wasted opportunity to have a children’s TV host from the ABC as a contestant

It’s probably more the appeal that he already has with kids plus the mums (and I dare say some dads) will be tuning in to cop a glimpse

In the SMH, in response to Peter Ford’s claimed exclusive:

a Network 10 spokesperson confirmed some names on the list are correct “but you haven’t quite got them all”.

More:

Is Karl Stefanovic's ex-wife Cassandra Thorburn set for reality TV?

It also states that the cast will be revealed in the next fortnight.

Whilst 10 did not issue a denial a spokesperson told TV Tonight, “Good try! There are some correct names on that list but you haven’t quite got them all.”

Judges are also yet to be confirmed.

Wasn’t Michelle Payne supposed to be on the show?

Maybe you’re thinking of Michelle Bridges, as she is rumoured to be on the show?

Michelle Payne is currently pregnant if i recall correctly or maybe i am thinking of someone else

[JeepersCreepers]

You may be right. I’d heard that Michelle Payne (jockey) was meant to be going into the jungle, then someone said that it was actually DWTS, which actually makes more sense to me. I hadn’t heard she was pregnant though.

Cassandra Thorburn has outed herself as a contestant on Dancing with the Stars. The headline in The Daily Telegraph, and the photo with the story in Confidential:

Confidential also has an interview with Samuel Johnson confirming his appearance, and it also claims to confirm Curtly Ambrose.

Confirmed. Samuel Johnson being interviewed by Fitzy and Wippa right now about DWTS.

[TV_Addict]

Only recognise the guy.

[MarleneKratz]

Er, there are 2 guys.

[nationalnews]

@killy06

Given all the Dancing news today and teaser in the [Studio 10] intro I’d say she is a surety Bonnie [Lythgoe] will be involved in the show.

If we go along with this logic, former DWTS judge Mark Wilson appeared on Studio 10 the other day…

Cass looks stunning. Great buzz building for the Ten brand show. Why were Seven never capable of generating this sort of speculation or buzz in the lead up to DWTS when it aired there for them? I guess they never needed to in earlier seasons but the differences in approach are interesting.

Who says? I think you have selective memory.

There certainly was. It was all you would read about for months on end.

[Tom_TV7]

I’m still not sold on Cass as a celebrity but that’s just me.

Samuel and Curtly look fantastic though. Should be a good season.
