The ABC network has finally released the official line up for the 2015's 10 anniversary season of Dancing with the Stars, and none of the names bandied about by the media as potential Season 20 stars haven't panned out. It turns out that that the new Kate Upton, Charlotte McKinney, best known for her near-nude Carl's Jr. commercial, and Rumor Willis, daughter of Demi Moore and dad Bruce, will be joining the cast instead of the much rumored Roseanne Bar and current Bachelor Chris Soules. According to the lasts gossp news updates, Derek Hough will even be returning this year despite the reports that he would be dancing with the Rockettes in NYC instead. Word has it that Kate Hudson's boy toy has a fill-in to take his place on the show whenever he is too busy at Radio City Music Hall.
This year the Dancing with the Stars producers are pulling out all the stops casting everyone from disabled veteran Noah Galloway to famed R&B singer Patti LaBelle, but just as interesting are some of the names at the top of the list that didn't wind up making the final cast.
Hollywood royalty, Rumer Willis, who parents Demi Moore and Bruce Willis were famous long before she was conceived, is hardly a replacement for a real-life Kennedy.
Below is a list of all the new cast members here were actually chosen for the competition as well as their professional partners as provided by E! News:
"Michael Sam, partnered with Peta Murgatroyd
Suzanne Somers, partnered with Tony Dovolani
Patti LaBelle, partnered with Artem Chigvintsev
Nastia Liukin, partnered with Derek Hough
Robert Herjavec, partnered with Kym Johnson
Riker Lynch, partnered with Allison Holker
Charlotte McKinney, partnered with Keo Motsepe
Redfoo, partnered with Emma Slater
Willow Shields, partnered with Mark Ballas
Rumer Willis, partnered with Valentin Chmerkovskiy
"Noah Galloway, partnered with Sharna Burgess"
While Robert F Kennedy Jr. may not be dancing this year, at least, Derek Hough won't be taken away from us a previously reported.
According to Us Weekly, Hough worked out an arrangement with the producers to have Olympic gymnast Natasi Liukin fill in for him at Dancing with the Stars, whenever he is too busy with New York's Spring Spectacular to tear himself away.
Liukin told the publication that he was excited to have a chance to appear on the show, even if it is just as a second string position:
"I 'm so excited to be joining Dancing with the Stars for their 10 year anniversary!
"I can't wait for this fun opportunity."
You have to wonder what Sean Lowe did to ruin it for all the Bachelors that have followed.
