  • Dancing with the Stars shared new teasers for the upcoming season 28 cast to Instagram.

  • Fans are speculating Hannah Brown, Karamo Brown, and Abby Lee Miller of Dance Moms may be competing for the Mirrorball Trophy this fall.

  • The full list of contestants will be announced on Good Morning America, Wednesday Aug. 21.


I'm seeing mirrorballs, because the first of many teasers for the upcoming Dancing with the Stars season just hit. Fans are stoked already, even though they know next to nothing about what DWTS season 28 will hold. Yep, there have been 27 whole seasons so far, and one more is right around the corner.

After new promo photos dropped, fans started putting on their detective caps, trying to figure out who is coming to the ballroom and competing for the coveted Mirrorball Trophy this year.

One of the potential cast members may not be so lucky in love, but she's already a crowd-pleaser. Fans are convinced, as are US Weekly's inside sources, that former Bachelorette Hannah Brown will join the DWTS cast for season 28.

The DWTS Instagram account shared a black-and-white photo of a woman with her hands on her hips. There are tell-tale freckles visible on her hand and hints in the caption, "We'd LOVE to tell you who this is..." One of the pros, Sasha Farber, commented, "Yesssss let the games begin !!!!" Could he be her partner?

The Bachelorette's not the only familiar face from TV rumored to be dancing for the mirrorball trophy this fall. Fans are also convinced Karamo Brown, of Queer Eye fame, is dusting off his dancing shoes.

Clues like a Florida A&M pennant, bomber jackets, and the coordinates for Houston in an Instagram post left fans with Karamo as the only possible star, and they, along with judge Carrie Ann Inaba, are stoked.

Not all the cast members are coming from other TV shows, however. There's bound to be at least a few athletes testing whether their ball skills transfer to the ballroom. (Spoiler: they usually do.) And this season, there are some big names popping up as potential contenders. After an Instagram post hinted at an NBA star, Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Dwayne Wade, Kobe Bryant, and more names are up in the air. An Apple watch on one wrist could be the key to predicting who this mystery figure is.

Another teaser photo shared to Instagram gave a few clues about another cast member. It shows a blurred, black-and-white figure holding an emoji paddle in front of her face. The silhouette looks familiar: Could it be Dance Moms star Abby Lee Miller?

It's possible, and here's why: Abby has worn big rings just like the hand in the photo, and the hair in the silhouette looks kind of like one of her wigs, too. ICYMI: Abby went to jail and battled cancer in recent years and is in a wheelchair now, which would make her a very unique contestant. However, her nails tend to be longer than those in the image. Still, commenters remained hopeful: "Okay but like if that’s Abby Lee Miller, DWTS is gonna be lit."

Take a look at the post and judge for yourself:

Meanwhile, the DancingABC account encouraged followers to share who they want dancing this fall. "We can’t wait to sing these names from the rooftops! 😄 Who do YOU want to see in the #DWTSballroom this season?"

There are some very fun answers coming in. Besides Bachelorette Hannah Brown, fans have also suggested retired hockey star Wayne Gretzky, model and TV host Tyra Banks, and many more celebs of varying fame.

Others offered up who they don't want to see on the dance floor. "Please Tell Me There Aren’t Any The Bachelorette/The Bachelor Contestants. THEY CAN’T DANCE," said one person.

The official Dancing With the Stars cast announcement is coming next week on Good Morning America, during the August 21 show. Put that date in your calendar, stat.
