There are already rumors flying around about the cast of season 11 of Dancing With the Stars (Lindsay Lohan, Troy Aikman, NJ Housewives, to name a few, and I will be reporting on those when I see new ones), but I sat down and thought for a while. Who would I like to see grace the ballroom floor on season 11? There are some usual categories of stars that they put on the show, so I tried to stay within those parameters.

- The funny/oddball/comedian: Jason Mewes (Yes he’s funny, unpredictable, obnoxious, on and on. And just what the show needs)

- The musician/singer: Harry Connick, Jr. (I know it’s a long shot, but time to do a singer in a genre other than R&B/dance)

- The TV star: James Callis (I know he’s doing Eureka on SyFy, but I think he would be fabulous and a great nod to the nerd set who adored him on Battlestar Galactica like I did)

The Gorgeous Male star: James Franco (hey, he did General Hospital, why not DWTS?)

- The Octogenarian star: Betty White (nuff said)

- The Old School Star: Mayim Bialik (Blossom was so cute when she turned on her video camera and started to dance. She recently got a makeover from the What Not to Wear crew and is ready to be in the spotlight again)

- The Pro Athlete/Olympian: Johnny Weir (I liked Evan Lysaceck, but Johnny has much more pizazz and controversy potential)
Check out this post on Johnny to see what I mean.

- The ABC Soap Opera Star: Michael E. Knight (Michael’s been on All My Children for-EVAH and I think he’d be fantastic dancing)

- The Reality Star: Tom Colicchio (I have always really enjoyed Tom’s dry wit on Top Chef, and it’s time to not have a completely obnoxious reality star on the show. Plus I think he’s cute)
- John Travolta

- Ewan McGregor
My Never-In-A-Million-Years Picks: John Travolta, Ewan McGregor (John just because it would be amazing to see him dance every week and Ewan because he surprised me so much in Moulin Rouge with his singing I would love to see him dance)
What’d ya think? You like or hate? Got any to add? Let me know!!

[...] The only one I know is Snookie, and I can’t stand her. Although he would fill the “funny/oddball/comedian” [...]
