The cast of Season 35 of “Dancing With the Stars” will soon sashay its way onto our screens.
A partial list of names who will compete for the covered Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy has trickled out in recent weeks. One star will follow in the footsteps of Robert Irwin, who won Season 34 of the show, along with pro partner Witney Carson.
“DWTS” returns with a two-night premiere that kicks off Sept. 15 and concludes the next night.
Here’s a look at who is confirmed to put their best feet forward on the upcoming edition of “DWTS.”
The “Love Island” and “Traitors” star is ready to show off her best moves.
“I’m a strong believer in manifesting. I had it on my vision board,” Higgins said about joining the show when her casting was announced at Hulu’s Get Real House event in April.
“And now it is happening, which I cannot believe, and I know it’s going to be so, so hard. But because I really want to do it, I’m going to put my all into it.”
The “Summer House” star, who appeared on a different season of “The Traitors” than Higgins, was also revealed to be a contestant during the April Hulu event.
“I am so excited to join Season 35 of ‘Dancing With the Stars.’ I feel like this is the perfect moment,” she said in a video message.
“I feel like I’m opening a new chapter, and I’m so excited to share it with all of you guys,” she said. “Can’t wait to put my energy on the dance floor, and Maura I can’t wait to share the dance floor with my fellow Faithful. See you soon.”
The Savannah Bananas star was announced as a contestant in May .
“I’m excited, but I’m also nervous,” he told E! News Aug. 20.
“The part I’m most excited for is I’ve only ever danced in cleats, on dirt and on grass. I can’t move my feet in a way that I can on a ballroom floor that I can on dirt and grass. It’s so tough on that baseball field to dance. But in that ballroom, I’ve become a different animal, I think, because it’s a three-hour rehearsal block. And I’m like, ‘Let’s go for three more hours.’ I want to get this down.”
It was revealed in June that the “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” sidekick will compete on the upcoming season. Earlier this week, it was announced that he will team with Carson, who is pregnant, sparking online chatter that the two were put together with the idea he will lose early, allowing her time to rest.
“Well, that’s not going to happen because I’m trying my best. I’m working hard, and I want to go all the way to the final,” he told guest host Rosie O’Donnell on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on Aug. 19.
