IS JEREMY RENNER READY TO DANCE AFTER THAT AWFUL ACCIDENT?

Jeremy Renner is being wooed to show the world how FAR he’s come after that almost deadly snowplow accident on New Years Day, 2023 – by taking a twirl on Dancing With The Stars. Jeremy is a part of the Disney/Marvel family thanks to his role on The Avengers and Disney owns ABC, the network that airs the popular dancing competition. According to a network insider, ABC wants Jeremy to appear on DWTS not as a competitor, but during a special episode dedicated to Marvel movies. The idea is for Jeremy to rehearse for a few weeks and then do one special dance as a way to promote the Marvel franchise during next season.

GEORGE SANTOS WANTS TO DANCE HIS TROUBLES AWAY

As far-out as it sounds, George Santos is hoping to pivot from Congress to the dance floor! The just indicted Congressman from New York is ignoring calls to resign after pleading not guilty to a plethora of charges, but IF he’s thrown out of the House of Representatives, he’s aspiring to show off his moves on Dancing with the Stars. As we previously reported, George is working on a tell-all book that he hopes to release once his time in Congress ends, but his new scheme involves landing a spot on the popular show. George has a contact who is connected to DWTS and despite the fact that he’s an accused felon and proven liar, the consensus is that he’s PERFECT for this type of reality TV and could very likely compete!

CHERYL BURKE: PUPPY LOVE ETC

She’s no longer Dancing With The Stars, but Cheryl Burke’s next gig might be a better match. The recently divorced (she split from Matthew Lawrence last year) – and former DWTS pro, has been tapped to become the celebrity brand ambassador for Match.com. Despite her good looks and perky personality, for the most part Cheryl has been unlucky in love – her unexpected divorce from Matthew is the latest in a string of failed romances. While she hasn’t signed on the dotted line just yet, an insider says that Cheryl is seriously giving the idea a lot of thought, especially if it helps her find her soulmate.

JULIANNE HOUGH REALLY LOVES THOSE FREEBIES

Dancing with the Stars pro Julianne Hough made the MOST of her time at the Day of Indulgence party on Sunday. Looks like she stocked up on just about everything that fit her and more… Will she make it to her car without help? That white bag on her back is full of Spanx which she might need when she appears on The Bachelorette. ABC wants Julianne, who happens to be divorced and between boyfriends, to appear on the show to boost ratings, which have sunk to an all-time low. Julianne is currently on a break from DWTS, and she’s definitely open to appearing on an upcoming season.

BROOKE BURKE: YOUR SWEATER IS NOT A MASK

What the heck is going on at Nobu in Malibu? Brooke Burke walked out after dinner there, looking like THIS. A pulled up turtleneck is no substitute for a mask (according to Dr Fauci) – we wonder if she got away with this inside. At least her boyfriend, real estate developer Scott Rigsby, has a mask in his hand. Brooke, 49, divorced David Charvet in 2018 and has been with Scott through the pandemic. She has four kids with two ex-husbands so this girl has baggage, but luckily she’s super-cute. (Did you know Brooke started out as a Frederick’s of Hollywood catalog model?) Brooke won Season 7 of Dancing with the Stars and they liked her so much that she hung around as a host on the show for years. All she needs now is a real mask…

JENNA JOHNSON: DWTS IS A FAMILY AFFAIR

DWTS pro Jenna Johnson (she’s only 5’2”) gave her dance partner Nev Schulman a special treat – to celebrate being the first couple to get a perfect score of the season on Dancing with the Stars. She brought her adorable little dog to meet Nev and give him a sloppy kiss before practice today. So far Jenna is way ahead of her husband of one year, pro Val Chmerkovskiy and his partner Monica Aldama, in the competition.

DID DANCING WITH THE STARS USE CAROLE BASKIN AS “BAIT” TO ATTRACT VIEWERS?

Certainly the most unexpected contestant – and object of curiosity- on Dancing with the Stars this year is Carole Baskin. You might remember Joe Exotic accused his rival Carole of murdering her wealthy ex-husband in the Tiger King documentary miniseries. The husband went missing in 1997 and was never found. Carole and her ex-husband ran the Big Cat sanctuary in Florida. She was definitely the most controversial dancer this season, and to tantalize viewers, she appeared last on the opening show. Too bad she got the lowest score. (Her awful costume and hair didn’t help!) During the show, her missing husband’s daughters aired a 50 second ad in Florida offering $100,000 for information about their father’s disappearance. Carole dismissed it as a “huge publicity stunt” but it makes you wonder – why would that family want “publicity?”

NELLY: NOT AS DANGEROUS AS HE LOOKS

Nelly has never been the gangster rapper that some people assumed he was. The fact that he’s appearing on Dancing with the Stars should validate that fact. We met Nelly over 16 years ago when he filmed part of a music video at our house. He was slim and cute and surprisingly well spoken- we got the feeling he wanted to be more of a bad boy than he really WAS. (In those days rappers were mostly from the east or west coast – not the midwest, like Nelly.) Fast forward to today – he’s a fierce looking muscleman and he has raised four kids of his own…and he DANCES.

YOU CAN’T FOOL WENDY WILLIAMS!

Love, love, love, Wendy Wlliams’ theory on what REALLY happened to Christie Brinkley and Dancing with the Stars. Wendy is convinced that Christie, 65, FAKED that shoulder injury that supposedly happened during practice last Thursday, just so her model daughter Sailor could take her place and dance on the show! Wendy has a good point: Sailor is 21 and not famous enough to be invited to do the show herself. Wendy thinks Christie agreed to appear and schemed ahead of time to have Sailor take her place! It’s great publicity for Sailor! What’s more, Wendy summed it up with a wink “You can LOOK like a teenager on the outside, but it’s all 65 on the inside!”
(It will be interesting to see if Sailor knows the dance routine perfectly on opening night Tuesday)

PAM ANDERSON BOUNCES BACK AFTER FROM SPLIT FROM SOCCER STUD

Pam Anderson, 51, leased out her Malibu house and moved to Marseille to live with her soccer playing boyfriend Adil Rami, 32, last year. She said she wanted a fresh start for the second half of her life and had always planned to move to France. In July, Pam was wearing some sort of promise ring from Adil but recently the couple has been on the rocks. Pam promptly booked a job competing on Danse Avec Les Stars (the French version of Dancing with the Stars) and now she’s living in Paris. But it’s not over yet- Adil was seen leaving Pam’s hotel this week…
