‘Dancing With The Stars’ 2011 Cast Revealed – Was The Leaked Info Right?

Yesterday’s leaked info of the season 13 cast of Dancing With The Stars was almost 100% correct.

With the exception of one celeb (Ryan O’Neal) the info was dead on. O’Neal is not stepping onto the hardwood floor, instead Queer Eye for the Straight Guy alum Carson Kressley gets his fancy dancing slot.

Ricki Lake, Nancy Grace, David Arquette, Chaz Bono, Rob Kardashian, Kristin Cavallari and Elisabetta Canalis are in as well.

The ABC show will return on Monday, September 19th with 12 new celebrities set to twirl and tumble their way through the dance routines.

Who else is dancing this year? Read all their bios below. (Read the article)

DWTS Season 13 Cast Leaked?

The season 13 cast of Dancing with The Stars has come out a little early.

The announcement was supposed to happen during the Bachelor Pad 2 episode airing tonight however DWTSGossip tweeted what it says is the complete list of performers for the new season.

Chaz Bono, David Arquette, Rob Kardashian and Kristin Cavallari are no surprises – their names have been out for a while but there are a few unexpected names added to the list.

“nancy grace, kristin cavalleri, riki lake, chynna phillips, hope solis, elizabetta canalis. david arquette,rob kardashian,ryan oneal, Jr. martinez, chaz bono, ron artest” according to the tweet.

Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi and Queen Latifah‘s names had been tossed around but both shot down those rumors.

The show was aiming for more A-listers but it certainly fell short there, although there are some interesting names on this list.

Assuming this is correct – how do you think the new season will shape up?

Independent Spirit Awards Red Carpet: The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

Rosario Dawson Attends The Independent Spirit Awards 2010

Precious took off with another pack of statuettes at the Independent Spirit Awards Friday night.  I love the ISAs – they’re kind of like the anti-Oscars.   But just like the Academy Awards, the ISAs have their share of red carpet triumphs and disasters.   Here’s the highlights.

The good:  Rosario Dawson, flawless and simple in gray lace.  Gabourey Sidibe looking very elegant and really, really pretty.  And when did Maria Bello get so hot?!

The bad: Rachelle Lefevre wrapped in someone’s drapes. Ricki Lake… it would take someone with a hell of a lot of style to pull off a fringed cocktail dress, a leather jacket and pearls, and you are not that woman, hon.  Jodie Foster and Jemaine Clement (Flight of the Conchords) wearing the same jacketAlan Cumming with more makeup on than most of the women.   Brittany Snow wearing the linoleum flooring from some diner.

The ugly:  Maggie Gyllenhaal in whatever the heck that is.  A jumpsuit?  Oh, Maggie.   Was the saggy side boob really necessary?

And finally, the slutty:  Mariah Carey.  I swear, she could make a nun’s habit look skanky.  If she’d pick clothes that actually fit, it would improve things about 147%.

The National Enquirer is reporting that Friday Night Lights star Minka Kelly was having lunch with a hot guy at the Fred Segal restaurant in West Hollywood recently, and it wasn’t John Mayer! “The two seemed awfully chummy,” the site reports.

This story comes on the heels of a John Mayer/Ricki Lake love affair rumor, though Lake told TMZ her love life is “nonexistent” and that she’s only “a fan” of Mayer’s work.

Odd Couple Alert: John Mayer and Ricki Lake

John Mayer/Ricki Lake

Minka who? John Mayer and Ricki Lake are the hot new item?There are rumors that a new (and adorable!)Hollywood couple are about to be kissing under the mistletoe!

Star reports:

As soon as he arrived at the party, the studly musician chatted up Lake the entire night, reports the New York Post‘s Page Six. The two were discussing Lake’s new documentary, The Business of Being Born, when Mayer revealed, “I’ve had a crush on you for two years.”

Publicists ushered the love-stricken couple to a back area, where they exchanged numbers, reports Page Six. Later that night, Lake left and went to the trendy NYC lounge Rose Bar, where Mayer flooded her phone with text messages.

Yesterday we reported on Lake’s struggle with obesity due to childhood abuse. Let’s hope funny man Mayer can make the Hairspray cutie pie happy!

Ricki Lake Turned to Food After Childhood Sexual Abuse

Ricki Lake


The original “Tracy Turnblad” and talk show host Ricki Lake blames childhood sexual abuse for her weight issues. Ricki weighed 260 pounds at her heaviest.After a lot of determination, she was able to get down to a size 2 and has kept the weight off for years..

OnceLake started taking her health seriously, she was able to lose half of her body weight. She feels that she would not have been facing weight issues if she had not been physically abusedas achild.

“I was a victim of childhood sexual abuse and I think it contributed. Who knows for sure? I’ve done many years in therapy and worked on all my issues. I didn’t talk about it for, like, 15 or 20 years; I didn’t admit that it had happened to me because I wanted to kind of bury things.
“It, in some way, made me who I am today… I don’t want to be a poster child for this at all but it’s very weird thing for children when they’re violated in that way. Food became a comfort to me; it was my kind of security blanket.”

Speaking exclusively to Access Hollywood, Lake admitted she never confronted her abuser when she eventually told her parents of the abuse, but the person was “quickly removed” from her life.
