Dancing With The Stars: Getting Cozy With The Stars!


With yet another season going underway, this coming season of Dancing With The Stars might just turn away from all the controversies, for once.

Two seasons ago, singer and The Pussycat Dolls' frontwoman, Nicole Scherzinger, was put in the hot water for making it to the finals and winning the Mirror Ball trophy, given her dancing background with PCD. Olympic gold medalist Evan Lysacek was also in the talks due to his choreographic skills in figure skating.

And last season might have been the most controversial season yet, when politician Sarah Palin's oldest daughter, Bristol Palin, who was famously announced her pregnancy during the 2008 presidential election, was the biggest talk of the show for overcoming every elimination, until the finale, given her flimsy dance skills. Many viewers were outraged when singer Brandy, who received high marks throughout the season, was eliminated over Palin, debating whether the season was based on a political matter.

However, this season, which premieres on Monday at 8 pm EST on ABC, might be avoiding such disputes with 11 new contestants with less dancing backgrounds, with the likes of wrestler Chris Jericho, rapper Romeo, model and tsunami survivor Petra Nemcova and television star Kirstie Alley, it might actually be a drama-free season afterall.
