When I look at this list of mirrorball hopefuls, what jumps out first are the 3 NFL players who were a major force on the football field. This pleases me because it helps quell my longing for the next football season. After that, I notice the mix of television personalities who are likely there to promote their latest project. Of these, I am most interested in watching Ginger Zee, weather forecaster for GMA, but Jodie Sweetin is a close second because I want Keo to have a partner who can actually bring it - for a change. I believe Marla Maples is there just to remind us that Mr. Trump owns the television ratings, but like just about everything else we see about the Republican primary candidate, it doesn't make him look very presidential.
Wanya Morris probably has moves from his experience on stage with Boys II Men, but is he popular enough to go far? Not likely, but he will be around long enough to dance the rhumba to "I Swear." Male model, Nyle Dimarco will get enough of the women's vote to keep him on the show for awhile too, simply because he is so easy on the eyes. We are going to have wait and see about his dancing, because his deafness will certainly make competing for the win a challenge. All that being said, I think the surprise contestant will be Geraldo Rivera. He is going to have better moves than we think, a little like Donny Osmond but without the trophy. Paige VanZant, the Ultimate Fighter, is my sight unseen pick for the win. She is paired with Mark Ballas - and he never gets a lousy partner. I plan to weigh in next week after I watch tomorrow night's show, to recap and make a more educated choice.
