I'm quite excited by this line up. Particularly interested in how Shawn Johnson will do. Will also be interesting to see how a real-life couple (Chuck and Julianne) fare.

Does anyone know when we'll be told which celeb is dancing with which pro? We know some of the pros already, but not the whole lineup as far as I know.

A few partnerships have been leaked -- Steve O was on a late night talk show (Kimmel) and said he was partnered with Lacey Schwimmer.
Shawn Johnson has been photographed coming out of a dance studio with Mark Ballas: http://photo.wenn.com/index.php?ref=...209&version=us Maks has said he's with Denise, and he said Julianne was with Chuck Wicks, her boyfriend It was hinted, at least, on somebody's Facebook, I think, that Derek Hough's with Lil Kim. Cheryl Burke put Gilles as her friend on myspace (and none of the other celebs are there.) I think the other rumors are Wikipedia ones without any other evidence. I heard there's an official announcement on Thursday. |

Another confirmation - the website of the tv show "Access Hollywood" has an article saying Nancy O'Dell will be partnered with Tony Dovolani and there's a nice picture of them together, if the link works:
http://www.accesshollywood.com/nancy..._article_14334 Also, Shawn Johnson confirmed she was with Mark Ballas on the Billy Bush radio show. |

The Official Announcement is Due Tomorro but this looks to be accurate
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dancing...(U.S._season_8)
Two new young pros as Cheryl said in an interview last week. |

I hope Belinda is a decent dancer. I think she is a wonderful woman, and it's about time Jonathan made the Finale for a second time!

Jonathan is so so sweet - I missed him last season and I'm thrilled he's back. It sounds like he fared pretty well. I keep reading everywhere that Jewel's stiff as a board - Nancy's nearly 5'10" - I think he probably did the best he could do, as he wasn't going to get 17-year-old Shawn who along with Lil Kim is under 5'. (I think Jonathan's around 6') Oh I hope he has a chance against this relatively weak (?well maybe) field.
I feel like W. C. Fields (who said anybody who hates dogs and children can't be all bad) but I don't like the kiddie comp either. |

This site has a lot of pictures of some of the celebs practicing with their pro partners (Chuck, Shawn, DAG, LT, Gilles, and Steve-O, who looks like he's got quite a jette' -- or whatever you call those giant leaps that ballet dancers do!):
http://www.abcmedianet.com/web/showp...et&typecode=ph I think each couple is either doing a Fox Trot or a Cha Cha - you can tell which one the couple has by looking at these practice photos - well usually. |

3rd post from top:
http://forums.televisionwithoutpity....#entry11348296 9th post from top at: http://forums.televisionwithoutpity....3181970&st=225 If those don't work I'll come back and give analog descriptions of how to get there ![]() I think I've figured out from the pictures above: Foxtrot: Shawn, DAG Cha Cha: Chuck, LT, Gilles And Steve-O looks like he's doing Swan Lake or some other ballet, lol. But in one picture, maybe they've got a Fox Trot hold? And it's possible they're practicing the first TWO dances they'll have so what's in the pix may not be what they do on the first show? Also other dances look like FT and Cha Cha - I can't remember if that's an actual spoiler or not about those two dances being the ones in the first show. (It may be one of those seasons when no one leaves till week 2 after they've each done a ballroom or a Latin - we've had several seasons like that.) ETA to fix 2nd link. |

oops! -- in the practice pictures (page 1) - the one I've been calling Chuck is actually Ty Murray, the rodeo star -- and the pro I thought was Julianne is the new girl Chelsie Hightower. Wow, those girls look alike to me!
