From what's been said, Tristan was still under contract to DWTS and they transferred it to Strictly. Kym's contract might have been transferred to DWTS Oz. I hope not, becauser she's one of my favourite pros and I'd like to see her dancing again on DWTS USA.
I like Kym too, but did think she was a bit wrung out in her last couple of seasons and needed a break. (Be happy to see her back though). I think she may well be under contract still, because she's been doing the DwtS cruises. Or perhaps she's out of contract and just staying in the fold. Either way, I guess that keeps a door open .
The thing is, Tristan is still a dancer, presumably on the same sort of wages and conditions he was signed onto at DWTS, so to transfer to Strictly is no biggy, it's just another person signing the same pay check (Except in pounds rather than dollars)

As for Kym, to judge in Australia would, presumably, require an entirely different contract and different terms. Whether that means she cancelled her contract with the U.S. or just signed a different one is a different matter. As Fridgesoup said, she's doing the cruises still, which would imply she still has connections to the American group. Either way, she's clearly in the ring to be contacted by the new execs. And, if you're going to bring anyone back for your first year as executive producer, you're going to want to bring back a 2 time Champion! (Hence I expect to see the likes of Cheryl, Karina and Derek on the show until they decide to quit, I doubt they'd ever be pushed!)

I'd like to see Kym back too.

I'd be happy for Peta to miss a series as well.

So, there's an announcement on Good Morning America as to who the pros will be, but not the celebs?

Seems the new team are pushing the pros as stars in their own right...

Should be hearing very soon who the pros are for this season. Supposedly they hear the same time as we do, but that seems unlikely . Kristyn Burtt has said some of the pros were told to 'keep the dates free' .

George Pennacchio ‏@ABC7George 7h
Hey #DWTS fans, we learn which pros are dancing tomorrow on #GMA. But @derekhough did tell me there's a "good chance" he'll be back.


Valentin ‏@iamValC 41m
Who's excited ? #gma #dwts

Tbh they're. They make the show. These days, they're MORE famous than the so-called celebrities

I don't know why this time, I fell for it....I thought that Derek was finally leaving " insert roll eyes emoticon "........I guess NOT lol.

Only just realised Sharna's not there - I'm really surprised and disappointed. Not so surprised by Allison Holker (good mates with Derek, is she not....? ) . She's appeared as a featrued dancer a couple of times. I think the one I didn't recognise might be Keo from Burn the Floor (South African IIRC). Gorgeous body if it is! . No Gleb , Henry or Sasha. Did they mention the troupe? (My computer crashed at a critical moment - too many things open at the same time! )

NO Troupe announcement today so you didn't miss it.
I guess Allison be IN kind of makes sense with the Derek connections ( first thing I thought ) BUT I'm Still surprised.

Poor Sharna , really shocked about that . She was VERY outspoken ( one thing I liked about her ) so hopefully she didn't burn any bridges. Hopefully this means that she'll feature on Afterbuzz tv as a regular like Anna.

Btw they announce ALL the celebrities September 4th on Gma.

Allegedly, from what I'm hearing Gleb Will be part of the Troupe AGAIN since Artem has been promoted as a pro. He's taking his place. I really hope that this rumour is true.

Women:
Whitney
Karina
Cheryl
Emma
Allison
Peta

Men:
Derek
Val
Artem
Tony
Keo (?)
Mark

I expect that Derek in the line up means they have either another inspirational muse or a great American icon in the cast. I would love it if - just once - he was paired with some lumpenprole no-one had ever heard of. The new producer would soar in my estimation . (Still, he'd probably turn her into an elegant swan and everyone would cry 'ringah' anyway... )

Well, his missus tweeted a not very subtle clue that he was employed on DwtS again , so I guess that means the troupe. I'd have liked to see him with a celeb, though - I like his sense of humour (as well as other assets )

They may up-size the troupe again, now there's time for some more dancing in the results show. I'm guessing Sasha and Henry might be in too, but there were rumours of Paul something or other (from SYTYCD?) and Armen Way.

Is the results show for the whole season or just the first few weeks?

ETA: I see it's just for two weeks ...

Pffffff don't hold your breath on that one...

Probably.
YAY I'm mostly happy for Gleb . He's SO lovely and a great dancer. Not too forget good eye candy

WOW I'm really excited about Dwts AGAIN !!! I can't believe it !!!

WELL done, new producer

Ah, I'm sure Keo was auditioned for Strictly- it was definitely mentioned on the forum/ Twitter one year? He's a BTF alum. The first ever black professional on DWTS

I have to say, as happy as I am for Artem, I'm really disappointed for Henry. Not that I expected him to get the call-back, but he had so much more to give.

Sharna out must hurt. She seemed to be one of the favourites in the past couple of seasons. To be replaced by someone with no ballroom training must hurt!

I'd far rather have Sharna in the pro lineup than Peta I like Sharna very much but I'm not particularly enthusiastic about Peta.

Still, I'm glad Emma's back, and Artem's choreography and dancing style is definitely better suited to DWTS than Strictly.

I'm also glad Witney's back, as I'd like to see her get a second chance. She did better with Drew Carey than Cheryl did, so I hope we see her with a celeb who actually wants to make an effort this time, unlike Cody Simpson, who really wasn't interested in learning the different styles of dance.
