Season of “Dancing With the Stars” 33 is just around the corner and with the show returning with a new season soon, it’s time to start thinking about which pros and contestants we might see on the dance floor this fall. No announcements have been made yet, but some rumors have been circulating about who might be coming Dancing with the stars in Season 33 are circulating. That’s why we’ve collected them all for you in one place.

Who are the Dancing with the stars Participants of season 33?

Chris Judd

The speculation about the possible end of JLo’s marriage to Ben Affleck makes her ex-partners look quite attractive for the dance competition. The first of them is Cris Judd, whom the pop superstar met when he was hired as a dancer for her music video Love Don’t Cost A Thing in 2000. It was a whirlwind romance for Lopez and Judd, who married in September 2001 and split in June 2002.

Casper Smart

The other JLo ex who is in the running for Dancing with the stars Season 33 is about Casper Smart. He dated JLo in 2011, which is much longer than Judd, five years in fact – although the two never married. Smart, another dancer, met JLo when he was a backup dancer on her tour, so at least we know he would be a perfect fit for the dance competition. Either way, the show wins, no matter what is or isn’t revealed about the pop star’s love life.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard

Blanchard, a survivor of Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy, rose to prominence when she was convicted of second-degree murder for the death of her mother, Dee Dee, who had physically, mentally and medically abused Gypsy-Rose throughout her life. Blanchard was released from prison in December 2023 and has published a book and appeared on The KardashiansHer appearance on Dancing with the stars However, this seems unlikely, as Blanchard is currently pregnant and her child is due in January 2025.

A baby reindeer actor

One of the biggest shows on Netflix this year, Baby reindeer Stars Richard Gadd and Jessica Gunning are both on the radar for Dancing with the stars Season 33 and it wouldn’t be a surprise to see any of them on the dance floor in the upcoming season. Gadd wrote the Netflix drama and also plays the main character, while Gunning plays his real-life stalker. The show is on track to become one of the most popular Netflix shows of all time.

Joan Vassos

The next Golden Bachelorette, Vassos, is reportedly also in the running for the lead role in the next season of Dancing with the starsThe 61-year-old, who left Gerry Turner’s series early on to look after her daughter, will get her own chance at love when her season premieres in September.

Caitlin Clark

Clark, a WNBA player and former college basketball star, was reportedly one of the show’s main targets. But Clark also reportedly turned down the opportunity to be on the show. To be fair, there may be some overlap between the show and the WNBA season, which ends in mid-September.

Shohei Ohtani

Another athlete the show was reportedly interested in was Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani. However, with the MLB season still running through the end of September and the Dodgers in first place in the National League West, putting them in a pretty good position to qualify for the postseason, Ohtani’s participation in Dancing with the stars seems quite unlikely.

Ilona Maher

Olympian Maher, who won a bronze medal as a member of the US women’s national rugby sevens team at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, is one of the Olympians named as a new player to the roster of Dancing with the stars for Season 33. She certainly wouldn’t be the first Olympian to join the show after the Olympics, although there is also a lot of talk about the possibility of Jordan Chiles joining the show, especially due to the post-medal controversy. One of the reasons Maher is a stronger possibility? She recently started hosting the Dancing with the stars Instagram account.

Sutton Stracke

The The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Stracke could be heading to the ballroom! And an anonymous source at gossip site Bravo and Cocktails reads: “ABC has cast the newest Southern fan favorite from Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills to dancing on Dancing with the starsher enormous popularity and quirky personality will keep people entertained next season.” So that’s that.

Parvati flat

The traitors has taken the reality TV world by storm, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see someone who recently appeared on this show Dancing with the stars. The Dancing with the stars Instagram account favored a video by Parvati Shallow, a Survivors and reality TV legend in December. So could this mean we’ll see Shallow on the show in season 33?

A TikTok star

The choice is vast, but the Daily Mail reported that several TikTok stars were vying for a chance to star in season 33 of the show. Given the other stars rumored to be starring in the show, adding a TikTok star would at least add some variety to the cast, and that can be fun sometimes. Maybe someone like Alix Earle or Jake Shane?

Biden, Harris or Trump relative

This is self-explanatory. With elections coming up in November, the show would love to bring a relative of Biden, Harris or Trump on the show – even if it’s not a close relative. Someone like Mary Trump would be an obvious choice, but there’s also Ella Emhoff and even one of Biden’s granddaughters.
