Marie Osmond Will Host Television Talk Show - No Really

Season 5 Dancing With The Stars finalist, Marie Osmond, announced at a press conference today that she will be hosting her own talk show, Marie (no really), that will air in syndication. The show will debut in the fall of 2009.

Former Dancing With The Stars Contestant Mario Lopez To Host New Dance Show

If you're wondering what Mario Lopez is up to these days, wonder no more. He is soon to be hosting a new dance series for MTV, "Randy Jackson's America's Best Dance Crew."

Yes. That Randy Jackson.

The show will pit some of America's best dance teams against each other in a reality show competition setting. The competition will be judged by former N-Sync star, JC Chasez and "So You Think You Can Dance" choreographer Shane Sparks.

Like Dancing With The Stars, those that tune in can vote either via phone or internet. And just like Dancing With The Stars, those with the least amount of votes will be eliminated from the competition.

While the show unveiled a 2 hour casting session on Saturday night (January 25, 2008), the show will premiere on February 7 at 10 p.m. EST.

According to various celebrity gossip websites, Brooke Hogan, pop star and daughter of Hulk Hogan, is seriously considering participating on season 6 of Dancing With the Stars.

So, what do you guys think? Is Brooke ready for the ballroom?

Dancing With The Stars Season 6 - Who Will The Stars Be?

Soon, we should be hearing the line-up for Dancing With The Stars season 6. In the meantime, however, we can simply contemplate the various casting spoilers that are currently floating about.

• Tori Spelling - First Ian, then Jennie, now Tori. It's a natural progression, but is a real one. Tori is a bit more infamous than both Ian and Jennie which may be a disadvantage to her when it comes to viewer votes. However, she's also garnered a good bit of fans through her other reality outlets and there's a good chance they could take her fairly far on fan loyalty alone. The question is, however: can she dance?
• Celine Dion - Stifle that choking sound you're making. I've heard this one since the finale of season 5. However, I have my doubts. While Celine has appeared as a performer many times, I'm not sure she will ever appear as a dancer (unless her record sales REALLY start slipping).
• Donny Osmond - I hear you groan and I second your groan! Not another  Osmond! As we saw with season 5 and Marie Osmond, those Osmond fans mean business. Even to the point of ousting talented dancers in place of their beloved. It's natural to assume that there might be another Osmond, but I can only hope not.
• Florence Henderson - I'm actually quite surprised we haven't seen her yet. She has been in the audience countless times. It's obvious she's dying to get on that dance floor.

Whether any of these will actually pan out, time will only tell. As soon as I get wind of the cast, I'll post it here first thing.
