Dancing with the Stars Rumor Power Rankings


There are (as always!) lots of rumors as to who is on a new season of DWTS.  In fact, in some ways, it's the best part of the show!

They all get mixed together with wannabes complicating things, some stars negotiating for future seasons and, of course, the negotiations might not get anywhere.

I have found that at least 2 celebrities per season are the subject of rumors for previous seasons so there are probably discussions going on all the time.

This time the rumoprs seem to come in spurts and as we get closer they are coming out of the woodwork thick and fast.  So here are the "main" rumors I'm aware of with a ranking of how likely they may be.  I'm sure I've missed a lot out and I'm certain some of these are plain wrong!  If you know of any more, or disagree with the ranking let me know in the comments.

Almost certain

1. Hope Solo - as well as being the subject of rumors, Hope actually tweeted to Maks "What do I need to do for Sunday? Help!" and then deleted it minutes later.  One assumes she meant to DM him.

Strong Possibilities

2. Chaz Bono - the son of Cher and Sonny Bono is high in the tabloid rumor rankings.  He followed Karina Smirnoff and then unfollowed her.
3. Rob Kardashian - Rob has been a strong rumor for a while and without any denials looks to be set up for the show
4. Christina Milian - Christina has been rumored for a while and pulls very strange faces when asked about the show!
5. David Arquette - a late entrant, David is reported to have started rehearsal with Kym Johnson

Possibles

6. Candace Cameron Bure - Candace was a rumor for season 12 and seems to be playing it coy.
7. Chynna Phillips - the singer was rumored a while ago and has not denied anything.  She also tweeted that she would be spending some time in California.
8. Dinah Lohan - reported to have told people she was in discussions.  They could have fell through though.
9. Kristin Kavalari - the reality star from the Hills has been rumored for a while.
10. Elisabetta Canalis - The ex-girlfriend of George Clooney was mentioned too close to their break-up to my mind.  I'm not sure she's in.

Outside chances

11. Henry Winkler - Henry was a rumored contestant last year but when, in June, he said he would never go on the show we assumed he wouldn't.  However, a couple of tweets could mean otherwise.
12. Jenna Jameson - the ex-porn star is rumored to be appearing and follows some of the DWTS cast, but I can't believe ABC would want her on such a family show. (I sure she's a very nice person.)
13. Kelly Preston - Kelly was in the audience fior her friend Kirstie Alley and was rumored to have "auditioned".  Nothing has been heard since
14. Ryan O'Neal - a late entrant, Ryan was a rumor for season 11.  There are rumors again.
15. Donnie Wahlberg - after appearing in the "Guily Pleasures" week last season he seemed interested but nothing recently

(A lot of the information comes from PureDWTS.com and @DWTSGossip.  Thanks to them.)

So, who have I missed?
