GMA Pro Cast Announcement (08-19-15)!!


Season 21 Pros Revealed At Last On

Good Morning America, 08-19-15!!!



Whoo-hoo <Jumping up and down and squealing with absolute delight!!>, DWTS has officially begun the count-down clock towards its 21st Season Premiere (September 14th, 2015) with GMA's (Good Morning America's) highly-anticipated Professional Cast Announcement, which took place on August 19th, 2015!!

And so, without further ado, and no small amount of unbridled enthusiasm <clapping hands excitedly!>, I present to you our Pros (thus far) for Dancing With The Stars, Season 21:

First up, we have Valentin Chmerkovskiy: DWTS' reigning, Golden Mirror Ball Champion!

Val Chmerkovskiy, finally, hugging his very own
hard-earned (and well-deserved) Mirror Ball Trophy.

I'm so excited that Val will be returning to the Show! ... He was so great last Season with his Celebrity partner, Actress/Singer Rumer Willis!


DWTS' Season 20 Mirror Ball Champions,
Rumer Willis & Valentine Chmerkovskiy!




Peta Murgatroyd:  Season 14's Mirror Ball Champion (with former Wisconsin Green Bay Packer and Super Bowl Champion, Donald Driver) and most definitely a personal, all-time favorite!

Artem Chigvintsev:  Alright!!  Artem is coming back!  After only 2 Seasons as a Pro, Artem has endeared himself as a loveable member of DWTS' Professional Cast, and I thought that he was particularly great when dancing with Motown legend, Patti LaBelle, in Season 20!

Sharna Burgess:  Who doesn't just adore this Season 20, 3rd Place Finalist (along with Iraq War Veteran, Noah Galloway)?! 


 I'm so very glad to see that she will be returning to the Show!





Mark Ballas:  Yay!!  Mark is back!

 And a good thing, too, since America's favorite Ballroom Dance competition would not be the same without the participation of this creative genius!


Allison Holker:  Despite her somewhat shaky beginnings as a DWTS Professional for the show's 19th Season, Allison managed to make a real name for herself among the other Pros when she Placed 2nd last Season with R5 member, Riker Lynch, and I'm very glad that she'll be back!














Witney Carson:  Yeeeeesss!

As another all-time favorite, I'm positively thrilled that Season 19's Mirror Ball Champion (With Actor Alfonso Ribeiro) will be back to dance on this next Season of DWTS!!



Derek Hough:  Friggin' A, and watch out Season 21 competitors, because 5-time Mirror Ball Champion and Fan Favorite, Derek Hough, is coming back for yet another run (or, dance!) around the Ballroom!  I'm so excited!!

And, last, but most certainly not least, we havvvvve ...

Karina Smirnoff:  After a Season's hiatus from the show, Karina is set to return to the Glitter Dome once more as a competing Pro, much to delight of fans everywhere, myself, of course, included!

Well, there you have it, folks, Dancing With The Stars Professional Lineup (thus far) for Season 21!

Of course, there were only 9 Pros announced on GMA, so it is very possible that DWTS will be adding a few more before the Show's September Premiere!


I certainly hope so, since I cannot help but note that Pro Favorites Keo Motsepe, Tony Dovolani, and Emma Slater are missing from the list!

Check out these pictures from GMA's (Good Morning America's) "DWTS Season 21 Pro Reveal".


Karina Smirnoff  is back!  Say whaaaaaat!
