For many moms, Dancing With the Stars is their guilty pleasure; a time to escape into the make-believe world of TV land after the kids have gone to bed. Who will be among this year’s competitors? Tori Spelling was rumored to be a new cast member, but she recently denied the rumor. Recent reports from Us Weekly and MSNBC state that La Toya and Jermaine Jackson, plus Lou Ferrigno, Michael Jackson’s personal trainer, have all been approached by the show’s executives. Mirror reports that Paula Abdul may turn up as a competitor, having left American Idol.
