Or maybe we should call it Rappin' with the "Stars," considering what the rumored lineup is.Former Baywatch babe Nicole Eggert, singer Aaron Carter and web gossiper Perez Hilton are going to be on the MTV show, according to a source at the network. Much like Dancing with the Stars pairs a celeb with a real dancer, this show will pair a celeb with a real rapper. I think the only other difference is dancing is spelled with a "g" and "rappin" is spelled without one.
I don't want to see Eggert, Carter or Hilton rappin(g). I want to see people that you'd never expect to see rappin(g) rap. How about Rue McClanahan from The Golden Girls, or Bob Schieffer from CBS News? Or maybe PBS host Bill Moyers?

LOL. Most definitely, with a show like that I would rather love to see Bob Shieffer rap than the others! The rumoured 'stars' are so eh. I mean Aaron Carter? I thought he was already a 'rapper'? :P Yeah give us something fresh!
I think Bob does actually front a sort of honky tonk country band if I'm not mistaken.

Dude, they should just make Rappin' with the Golden Girls. Rue McClanahan, Bea Arthur, and Betty White bustin' rhymes? I'm so there.

I don't even like rap music when it's performed by "real" rappers. Why would I watch this?

I would love to see Aaron Carter on 'Rappin With The Stars'. It will give him exposure which he needs now. So this article is waaaay off when it says it doesn't want to see Aaron.
