The cast for the 25th season of Dancing With the Stars has been revealed! The list of 13 competitors for the coveted mirror ball trophy contains a pop singer, a married duo, and stars from both the NBA and the NFL.
The show has also added a “Fantasy League” element to the game in which fans can predict which couple will win the season. Players earn points for each correct prediction, and each point is an entry into the grand prize drawing for a chance to win a trip for four to Hawaii. For info: ABC.com/DFL
