Cast was announced yesterday (https://people.com/dancing-with-the-stars-season-34-cast-revealed-11801444). The "stars" are as follows...
Hilaria Baldwin (YUCK!!!) Jordan Chiles Baron Davis (not sure who this is) Dylan Efron (related to Zac?) Corey Feldman Danielle Fishel Elaine Hendrix Lauren Jauregui Andy Richter (not sure who this is either) Robert Irwin (his sister was great, he seems like a good personality as well) Alix Earle (meh) Whitney Leavitt / Jen Affleck (this show is my guilty pleasure) |
Wow I know very few of these stars. At this point I might know the dancers more than the so called celebrities. |
This has been the case for me for a while! Out of the dancers, I love Daniella and will root for her and whoever her partner is. |
Andy Richter was Conan’s sidekick |
Dylan Efron was a contestant on season 3 of The Traitors earlier this year. He came across as a really nice guy. |
Here's my take:
Hilaria Baldwin (YUCK!!!) - agree. she'll be insufferable only made worse by the fact that she can dance. Jordan Chiles - it'll be interesting to see her dance Baron Davis (not sure who this is) - agree Dylan Efron (related to Zac?) - yes his younger-by-four-years brother. Corey Feldman - he has tailored his life so he's in charge so it'll be interesting to see if he can take direction from the dance pro (and if he can dance) Danielle Fishel - I feel like she'll work very hard and be solidly mediocre Elaine Hendrix - ? Lauren Jauregui - ? Andy Richter (not sure who this is either) - I think he'll be among the first (of the 'stars' I know) to get voted off Robert Irwin (his sister was great, he seems like a good personality as well) - he'll be a pleasure to watch Alix Earle (meh) - I always confuse her with the Call Me Daddy podcaster. unless she IS that podcaster? Whitney Leavitt / Jen Affleck (this show is my guilty pleasure) |
I do think dwts really needs new pros in their 20s Also why take Sasha out but keep Gleb?! |
Filling in some gaps... Baron Davis is an ex-NBA player. But a pretty long time ago and, even then, he wasn't a star. Weird pick. Elaine Hendrix was in Parent Trap (the Lindsey Lohan version). Lauren Jauregui was in 5th Harmony. She's probably the least famous of them/least successful solo. |
My daughter is so excited about Jordan. I know she watched for Stephen last year. |
I think Jordan will do very well. The gymnasts usually do. And she was always dancing on the sidelines at competitions so we know she has rhythm |
I dunno - she wasn't dancing to music other people could hear. And I don't know if she can be graceful. She was always grinding or twerking. Dancing with a partner is a whole different ball game. |
Andy Richter used to be Conan ‘O Brian’s sidekick. |
Im excited about Jan, the pro, who is one of Taylor’s dancer on tour. |
I'll be watching because I enjoy the show. They do an amazing job with choreography and costumes and it's usually entertaining and relatively wholesome. I get annoyed with the judging and some of the contestants. The first few shows can be painful to watch because some of the celebs are so so bad until they get eliminated.
In early days I'll be voting for everyone except Hilaria. |
Wait you actually vote? I have never voted for anything non-political in my life. I had no idea real people voted on these shows. But I agree with being anti-hilarious. |
