We posted our favorite picks for DWTS 24 and our Facebook Page went nuts.
Yes, it's still early in the year, but the article is our most read, commented, and shared post of 2017. So we decided to share some of the top picks by our ArthurMurrayLive.com Facebook Community to see what you thought. Who knows? Maybe an outpouring of support is all the executives at ABC need to pull the trigger on one of the celebrities listed here.
Either way, it's a lot of fun. If you don't find your favorite celebrity pick for DWTS by the end of this article, let us know and we will add it to a future article.
RHONDA ROUSEY |
|
Potential Benefit To Her |
Why She Fits the Show |
| She was on fire, became a mega star, and after a few beat downs - it seems that her star has fallen... sort of like Twitter stock. | She still has some serious star power, is a tough competitor, and is primed for a celebrity career that goes beyond fight night. |
MC HAMMER |
|
Potential Benefit to Him |
Why He Fits the Show |
| Hammer is active within the Oakland community, on social media, and the show could raise awareness and reach to his already broad appeal. | Um.... he's MC Hammer. |
SCOTT VAN PELT |
|
Potential Benefit to Him |
Why He Fits the Show |
| ESPN has invested a lot into Scott, or "SVP's" personal brand on the show. This adds more content and audience appeal to this steadily rising ESPN star. | Disney owns ABC. Disney owns ESPN. It's a play for the home team. |
ALYSSA MILANO |
|
Potential Benefit to Her |
Why She Fits the Show |
| In addition to being a Mom and with a steady stream of work, she is one of the most charitable donors in Hollywood. DWTS could broaden the reach to deliver a bigger fundraising impact. | Milano is to male viewers what Mario Lopez was to the female demographic. 80's star, easy on the eyes, and can still deliver. |
JOHN STAMOS |
|
Potential Benefit to Him |
Why He Fits the Show |
| He's got the presence and character for another solo project, and maybe DWTS is the avenue for a major network to take notice. | The guy is still a multi-talented stud. He's one of the few celebrities that can still move the needle with just about every female demographic |
Dale Earnheardt Jr. - Famous race car drivers have done well on the show
Keith Urban - Studly, fit, and musical. A great combination for DWTS
Sarah Michelle Gellar - She's been out of the spotlight, and DWTS can help
Christopher Walken - A living legend with a flair for the dramatic.
Simon Pegg - Hilarious, and we'd love to see him guest judge on the show.
Hilary Duff - There's always room on DWTS for a Disney Channel alum.
Chuck Norris - ABC doesn't contact Chuck Norris. Chuck Norris contacts ABC.
Kathy Griffin - This would be a celebrity match made in heaven.
Tony Hawk - Super talented athlete, and ultra cool across all age groups
John Travolta - Travolta!!! This would be an epic win for DWTS
Kelly Ripa - Would probably win, then ask to work as a backup dancer in DWTS 25.
Luke Bryan - This country music heart-throb could rustle up some female votes.
Fred Savage - What better way to re-live some Wonder Years nostalgia?
Mark Paul Gosselaar - Can just see the #ZackMorrisDWTS tweets now
Betty White - Has some dance skills, has some attitude, and would have an immediate fan base
