Dancing with the Stars: Season 12 Preview

The Dancing with the Stars Season 12 premiere is just over a week away, and I don’t know about you, but I got pretty excited when I saw this year’s cast announcement. While there’s an unfortunate lack of Olympians, there are also no political figures, soap stars, or token oldies. Which means … maybe this season will actually focus on the dancing? Or maybe that’s too much to hope. Either way, let’s take a look at the new cast and make some early predictions:

Chelsea Kane
Partner: Mark Ballas
You Know Her Because: She was in Jonas, Jonas L.A., and various Disney Channel movies
Mirrorball Potential: High. Disney Channel stars have a solid track record on this show (case in point: Monique Coleman, Cody Linley, Kyle Massey, Sabrina Bryan), and I think Chelsea will be no exception. She’s young, she’s pretty, she has the right partner – if she can dance, it should be smooth sailing to the top.

Chris Jericho
Partner: Cheryl Burke
You Know Him Because: He’s a six-time world champion wrestler, host of ABC’s Downfall, and contributor to various VH1 shows.
Mirrorball Potential: Debatable. Big guys are usually lacking in the grace department, but Chris’s charm may take him further than expected.

Hines Ward and the rest of the cast below the jump:
