Rumor has it former Jon and Kate Plus 8 star Kate Gosselin will be kicking up her heels on the next season of Dancing With the Stars. The official cast list for the new DWTS season hasn’t been announced yet, but various sources are reporting Kate Gosselin will be among the competitors.
Radio host Lisa Stanley reportedly said Kate Gosselin has been practicing for Dancing With the Stars “under a shroud of security,” according to BuddyTV.com. Gosselin previously told Jay Leno she’d like to do Dancing With the Stars, despite her admission that she “so cannot dance. It would be a sad sight.”
The official cast of Dancing With the Stars season 10 will be announced during The Bachelor finale on Monday. Other rumored contestants include diver Greg Louganis, John Stamos, Kevin Federline and Olympic gold medalist Evan Lysacek. As for the pros, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, Cheryl Burke and Derek Hough will reportedly be returning this year, but Karina Smirnoff, Jonathan Roberts and Lacey Schwimmer will not.
Frankly, we’re not sure if we really believe Kate Gosselin would be lame enough to abandon her eight children for the grueling rehearsal schedule of Dancing With the Stars. On the other hand, it might be pretty damn amusing to watch her getting skewered by the DWTS judges — so we actually do kind of hope the rumor is true in that regard. But we’d still feel pretty lousy for the kids if mom decided to dump them on the nannies yet again for the sake of her ‘career’.

As much as I was not a fan of Kates because of her shabby treatment of Jon,I don’t see what difference it makes if she’s on dancing with the stars.Other celebrity moms are away from their children when they’re working,etc.If being in the limelight is her thing as long as those kids are loved and well taken care of that’s what matters.They have a father who loves them too and nannys who care for them as well!
I got sick of that show long ago, Kate would just be another reason not to watch it. Maybe they can get her hair out of her face so she can see what she’s doing.
She needs to be with her 8 kids, instead of worrying about dancing and getting publicity. those kids need her not a paid baby sitter. she makes me sick!
