Following the announcement of the new Dancing With The Stars "stars", many of us were like... "who?" Now that we've had a few days for it to sink it, some nuggets of information are popping up making this season a bit more interesting than originally thought. How? 

 

Well, first of all, Alfonso Ribeiro was cast as one of the stars. Eh hem... Carlton from 'Fresh Prince of Bel Air".

 

Every time I see him, all I can think of is... "It's not unusual to be loved by anyone..." Alfonso has promised the "Carlton Dance" sometime into the season. They have plans but they also want to make it that far.

 

Did you know there was a "Carlton Dance" flash mob? There are actually more moves to the dance than originally thought. World. Changed.

 

In addition to a taste of the 90's, we might see a certain Seattle Seahawk in the audience. If the rumors are true and Seahawks QB Russell Wilson is dating olympian Lolo Jones. The two were at the Espy Awards together and have been spotted spending some major time (no kiss, no funny business) but acting very close.



Here are the pairs:

Michael Waltrip & Emma Slater
