Dancing The Dance? - Updated

Dancing with the Stars

Original post:
Will Good Morning, America star Michael Strahan be one of the dancers on the upcoming "all athletes" season of Dancing With The Stars? I think it's possible. The new cast will be introduced tomorrow on GMA and on this morning's show there seemed to be some knowing winking between Robin, George and Amy as they teased tomorrow's big reveal.

Adam Rippon, Tonya Harding and Nadia Comaneci are other names I've seen bandied about as possibilities. What about Bachelor Arie Luyendyk Jr.? For Bachelors trying to extend their time in the television spotlight Dancing is the preferred next gig. Does race car driving count as a sport? Is Arie an "athlete?" Will he follow in the footsteps of ex-Bachelors Chris Soules, Ben Higgins and Nick Viall and dance the night away for money?

Stay tuned, we'll know tomorrow.

Friday morning update: No Michael, I misread the signs. No Arie and no Nadia either. Yes to Adam Rippon and Tonya Harding, who will dance with eight other athletes:

Mirai Nagasu
Jamie Anderson
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
Arike Ogunbowale
Chris Mazdzer
Jennie Finch Daigle
Johnny Damom
Josh Norman
