I don't think this has been posted, but sorry if it has.

Marissa Jaret Winokur will be on Dancing with the Stars next season. I hope she does well!

I think Marissa could be wonderful! Good luck to her!

I know, right. Since she has nothing else going on (at least not that I know of) she might as well.

Well, as long as she doesn't sing or talk much, I may watch.

Isn't DANCING WITH THE STARS the equivalent of career purgatory?

I'm surprised she wasn't cast in the Carly Jibson role in CRY-BABY.

It would have been nice to have another Tony Award Winner in the cast.

exactly. That's why we are saying "well, since she does not have offers to do anything else, why not?"

I don't think we'll see her on Broadway again, just a gut feeling. Jibson could act and sing circles around MJW.

This has been posted previously where they also said that Sean Hayes (Will & Grace) is on the show as well.

Sean Hayes needs to get that cute little butt on Broadway, not DANCING WITH THE (D-LIST) STARS.

I completely agree, ray-andallthatjazz86.

Okay, is it really DANCING WITH THE STARS if one can only recognize two or three names on the list?

So I'll throw my hat in...

MJW - good choice, it's proven she has the dancing chops to maybe pull off a good run on the show. The only problem she may have is I don't think she has the fan base she needs. It's pretty known on all those talent contests that no matter how good you are (Sabrina, anyone) if you don't have a huge fan base you don't go far.

That said, I think the cast as a whole is pretty diverse so it may prove interesting.

It just gets worse every year. I can't believe this show is so popular.

The only exciting choices are MJW and Priscilla Presley.

Priscilla can hardly move her face, much less her body.
