Believe it or not, DWTS is going into its 22nd season!

This season's contestants range from singers to athletes to meteorologists!

The pairings are as follows:

Jodie Sweetin from Full House with Keo Motsep
Mischa Barton formerly of The O.C. with Artem Chigvintsev
Kim Fields with Sasha Farber
Former NFL quarterback Doug Flutie with Karina Smirnoff
Super Bowl MVP Von Miller with Witney Carson
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown with Sharna Burgess
UFC fighter Paige VanZant with Mark Ballas
Geraldo Rivera with Edyta Sliwinska
GMA Meteorologist Ginger Zee with Val Chmerkovskiy
Marla Maples with Tony Dovolani
America's Next Top Model winner Nyle DiMarco with Peta Murgatroyd
Boyz II Men singer Wanya Morris with Lindsey Arnold

I'm liking what I am seeing here. My favorite Mark Ballas is paired with an athletes which usually means good things. Athletes are used to the training and long hours.

As you may have noticed Derek Hough's name is missing. He is not participating in this season due to commitments on Broadway.

His sister Julianne is also not returning as a judge, but head judge Len Goodman is back.

 

Fun, fierce and full of talent... help us welcome these 12 Mirrorball Trophy hopefuls to Season 22 of #DWTS! 🎉 A photo posted by Dancing with the Stars (@dancingabc) on
