    Re: Who would you include in the DWTS All-Star cast? **Speculation For Now**

    I agree with the no winners, but I just adore Apolo and would hate not to see him back.

    I would love to see

    Ralph Macchio, Giles, Joey Fatone, Evan, Katherine Jenkins, Erin Andrews, Kirstie Alley, and Audrina.

    I do not want the following anywhere near the show Kate G, Bristol, Melissa Rycroft, Nichole whatever her name was, Mario Lopez, or Shannon Elizabeth.

    They better have Misty May back on if she wants to. With the Olympics just before the season it would be great timing. Plus she got injured last time so we never got to see how well she would have done.

    And while I would dislike any former winners being on the show, I would only give an exception for Apolo. Love him!

    Looks like Mario Lopez put his foot in his mouth and got the smackdown, but he's playing it off as if he's the one turning down DWTS:

    Keck's Exclusives: No Dancing All Stars for Mario Lopez

    Jun 11, 2012 09:56 AM ET
    by William Keck

    Seems Extra co-host and past Dancing With the Stars contender Mario Lopez got his dimples slapped for saying on Live! With Kelly in April that ABC had invited him to return to the show for fall's All Stars edition.

    Talking about casting before the official announcement is a no-no. Now Lopez says, "I'm really busy, so I don't think I'll be able to do it. I don't watch the show and didn't even watch when I was on it. My mom wanted me to do it."
    Oops: Mario Lopez Breaks One of the Rules of 'Dancing with the Stars' -- And Now It Looks as Though He's Off the Show

    One star who apparently will not be returning for the fall all-star edition of ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" is Mario Lopez, reports TV Guide.

    The "Extra" co-host broke one of the cardinal rules of the ABC reality program by leaking information about the show while on "Live! with Kelly" in April. He wasn't supposed to let on that he had been asked to return as an all-star contestant.

    Because of the faux pas, Lopez is now saying it's his choice not to appear. "I'm really busy, so I don't think I'll be able to do it,” Lopez said. “I don't watch the show and didn't even watch when I was on it. My mom wanted me to do it."

    Re: Who would you include in the DWTS All-Star cast? **Speculation For Now**

    I read that in my TV Guide this week. Not disappointed, I don't mind Mario, but he's not my favorite person. I was really turned off by his attitude on here during season 3. Unless it's a red herring and he really is going to participate. I heard Cheryl would only come back if she could partner Gilles (which I roll my eyes at, because no doubt she'd be back even if she didn't have Gilles; but kind of a slap in the face to her other partners). However, Cheryl probably figures Gilles is the only one she could win with and who would likely have one of the best chances of winning regardless of who he's with. I want Gilles back, but would hope he's partnered with someone else. And Julianne says she might consider coming back, but I kind of doubt that. Brooke also said she wouldn't do it (after saying she wanted to, so I'm guessing she was turned down), but wouldn't mind performing during a results show one of her previous dances from season 7. Frankly, I consider Brooke the worst when it comes to co-hosting, and the least memorable winner. I could do without having to see her anymore than I have.

    I'm really thinking this AS edition will be a disaster.

    Interesting -- IMO there is no way that Julianne would come back as a pro dancer -- her agent would lock her in a closet first. She was just included in that big "Paramount 100" photo with the biggest stars in Hollywood; in the showbix food chain, her coming back to DWTS as a pro would be like her going back to a place where she once waitressed. (I don't mean that as a diss at DWTS, but once stars reach a certain status, half their job is working to keep that status)

    I hope it's true that Mario Lopez won't be on. *please*

    Don't want anyone that is in the DWTS Las Vegas gig either. Carson was entertaining to watch, and even with all the training for the Vegas gig he'd never win this show, it's not fair to the other participants.

    Apolo is still my fave winner, but no winners.

    For All Stars I want to see people who had a chance to win but didn't. Not sub par dancers with no shot at the title.

    Just an FYI--

    Kelly Monaco had a fan event at GH's fan club weekend today, and according to recaps, she doesn't know if she has been chosen for the cast, but it is a possibility.

    Apparently she also said that if she is chosen, her partner will be Derek.

    I don't know any of the people who posted this, so grain of salt and all that. Makes sense though, because GH needs some PR badly.

    According to Tom, they'll be announcing the cast Friday morning (I heard 10:45/EST), and all but one celeb will be named. Apparently, the fans will vote on the last person added to the cast. Bristol Palin continues to be the strongest rumor. However, I'd be curious the staying power she'd have this time. Louis van Amstel said none of the pros know yet who is returning. Since they're announcing the cast nearly 2 months before the premiere, I hope that's not a bad sign they are re-casting a bunch of horrible hoofers and hope the extra time will work a miracle. I'm still curious why they're making the announcement so early, but surprised that nothing had leaked out about the cast.

    Of the former champions, Emmitt and (likely) Nicole are out, and Jennifer said she's not up to doing it again. Donald Driver wouldn't be able to with football coming up in the fall, since he's still active. Shawn Johnson had said she was interested in returning, and she's out of the Olympics this year, so she might be a possibility. Maria has also expressed a desire to return. If they want to use a contestant from every season, they might go with her. Not sure who else from season 14 would want to do it so soon or be able to. Donny Osmond originally said he didn't see the point in returning again since he won (and he had to rub it in he beat Marie), but now there's strong rumors of both of them returning. Not that I expect Jonathan Roberts to come back, but if bringing Marie back meant him returning, I'd be all for it. Maybe they can redeem the dreaded doll dance. Or resurrect it if they make it to Halloween.

    I wouldn't mind Kelly Monaco, although she'd probably be another Ricki Lake type partner for Derek. The show seems so different from season 1, I'd be curious how she'd do, the reaction from the judges, and if she'd have the fanbase to go far (of course, Derek would probably make up for whatever she's lacking). Joey MacIntyre would be my pick for a seaosn 1 returnee, but I always felt Kelly got shafted big time by that stupid dance off to hand John O'Hurley a win. Didn't like him on Seinfeld, didn't like him on here. But loved Charlotte, his partner.

    If they are going to let the fans vote they need to announce at least 2 weeks early. Will be interesting to see how many candidates they have for the last spot---just pick one of two candidates or select from a dozen?

    I suspect that they are also announcing early to get a jump on the Olympics. Wouldn't it be great if the last slot is reserved for a current olympian and we'll have 3 weeks to vote? This seems unlikley since the Olympics are on NBC, but would be fun.
