Well, it's official. Yesterday, ABC announced their new line-up for the eighth season (!) of Dancing With The Stars. And, as usual, the names chosen range from weird to ... even weirder (really, David Alan Grier?). Not that we necessarily disagree with the producers' choices, but we'd like to take a moment to suggest seven potential choices of people we believe to be fully primed for a spot on the dance floor.Listen up, DWTS producers. Season nine is just around the corner, and Alan Alda is probably waiting by the phone. (...In our wildest dreams, that is.)
What do Shar Jackson,
Angie Everhart and Marla Maples have in common? They're all the ex-wives of famous men (or famous by proxy if you're
talking about Kevin Federline). That alone is enough to land them a show on television. ABC will soon launch a reality
series called The Ex-Wives Club, where the celebrity ex-wives will help other recent divorcees reclaim their
lives. With the help of a counselor, Jackson, Everhart and Maples will take a week to re-build the self esteem of men
and women who have recently split from their partners. The divorce rate in this country is so high that this show has
the potential to appeal to a lot of people.
