Today's Subjects: ----------------- Re: [EDA] Jewel to be on Dancing With The Stars [Mike Connell Subject: Re: [EDA] Jewel to be on Dancing With The Stars The official list is below. Looks like her hubby Ty is on the show too, and they will be competing AGAINST each other. A married couple, an Olympic champ, yet another former NFL star and the man who serves up "Chocolate News" will be "Dancing with the Stars" in a month's time. ABC announced the cast for the eighth cyle of its popular dance-off on Sunday night (Feb. 8), dropping names during its prime-time schedule. The 13 stars will begin competing on Monday, March 9. Singer Jewel and rodeo champion Ty Murray are not the first husband and wife to have been part of "Dancing with the Stars" -- that honor falls to Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin. They are, however, the first married couple to compete against one another in the same season (Rinna danced in the show's second season, and Hamlin followed her in season three). The cast also includes NFL Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor, who joins the likes of Jerry Rice, Emmitt Smith, Jason Taylor and Warren Sapp in transitioning from the football field to the dance floor. Shawn Johnson, one of the stars of the U.S. gymnastics team at the 2008 Olympics, will also compete. So will comedian David Alan Grier, the host of Comedy Central's "Chocolate News." Here's the full cast: Name: Belinda Carlisle Famous for: A music career with the Go-Go's and as a solo artist Name: David Alan Grier Famous for: " In Living Color," "Chocolate News" Name: Jewel Famous for: A Grammy-nominated music career, hosting "Nashville Star"; married to fellow competitor Ty Murray Name: Shawn Johnson Famous for: Her four-medal (one gold, three silver) performance in gymnastics at the 2008 Olympics Name: Lil Kim Famous for: A Grammy-winning hip-hop career, outrageous fashion choices Name: Gilles Marini Famous for: Making Samantha have impure thoughts in the "Sex and the City" movie Name: Ty Murray Famous for: Winning seven world all-around rodeo championships; married to fellow competitor Jewel Name: Nancy O'Dell Famous for: Hosting "Access Hollywood" Name: Denise Richards Famous for: "Wild Things," "The World Is Not Enough," a rocky marriage to Charlie Sheen and currently an E! reality show Name: Steve-O Famous for: Being a "Jackass" Name: Lawrence Taylor Famous for: Terrorizing quarterbacks in a Hall of Fame NFL career Name: Chuck Wicks Famous for: Country-music hit "Stealing Cinderella," dating "Dancing" pro Julianne Hough Name: Steve Wozniak Famous for: Co-founding Apple Computer ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 8 Feb 2009 21:18:47 -0800 From: Larry Greenfield Subject: Re: [EDA] Jewel to be on Dancing With The Stars Ok, now I KNOW it IS April Fool's day. When did I fall into the coma (the deeper one)? Ty would win the "hand-shake" contest, feet down. The rest of this is a Martian joke. - -=-Larry-=- On Sun, Feb 8, 2009 at 8:21 PM, Mike Connell wrote: > The official list is below.
