SEASIDE HEIGHTS, N.J. - ABC will announce its "Dancing With The Stars" cast on Monday night, and expect a Palin on the fall show.
Bristol Plain, the 20-year-old daughter of Sarah Palin, is almost certain to be named one of the cast members.
Palin will follow Kate Gosselin as a controversial addition to the ABC show, which found success last spring by using Gosselin to get additional viewers to the show.
The other celebs and reality figures linked to the fall cast include "Jersey Shore" star Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, former NFL player Kurt Warner, singer Brandy, and Florence Henderson.
ABC usually adds some one from its own extended network of shows, and "Bachelorette" Ali Fedotowsky is expected to be on the show.
Other rumored cast members include former NBA player and actor Rick Fox, actor David Hasselhoff, actress Jennifer Grey, singer Michael Bolton, comedian Margaret Cho and reality TV star Audrina Patridge.
Kirstie Alley has denied rumors she will be on the show.
The three most outrageous rumors, which are not corroborated, have Oksana Gregorieva, Nadya Suleman and Jon Gosselin as long shots to join the cast.
Suleman has lobbied to be on the show and Jon Gosselin has said he can dance better than his ex-wife.
We already know two celebs who may be on this fall’s ’Dancing With The Stars’? But now show faces a Jersey Shore style situation.
Yes, Mike ’The Situation’ Sorrentino is in negotiations with the popular ABC reality show, says TMZ.
The Situation’s PR person wouldn’t confirm that the self-styled king of Seaside Heights would be fist pumping this fall.
Troy Aikman and Teresa Guidice are also rumored to be on ’Dancing.’
Among the other celebs who may be lobbying for a highly-paid short-term gig are Jon Gosselin and Johnny Weir.
However, Weir and Gosselin’s ex, Kate Gosselin, have feuded in the past after they appeared together at a benefit.
