What’s better than a rag-tag collection of actors, pop icons, athletes, and politicians? A rag-tag collection getting jiggy with it for the favor of millions across America. Dancing with the Stars, the nation’s most beloved dancing competition is back.
This year, the cast is perhaps more eclectic than its ever been. Supermodel Christie Brinkley, James Van Der Beek, and Kel Mitchel (of Good Burger fame) up the ’90s quotient, but don’t worry, there’s also modern superstars Queer Eye’s Karamo and The Bachelorette Hannah Brown. Netflix and Chillers will be happy to see Kate Flannery from The Office, while sports fans can root for NBA champ Lamar Odom and MVP Ray Lewis. Also, Former White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer is there too, for some reason. Whose dance moves will blow away the competition? Who will fall flat on their ass while attempting a pirouette? Tune in to the latest season to find out.
Here’s everything you need to know to watch Dancing with the Stars online.
