The new lineup for Dancing with the Stars has been announced, and I will give you a quick look at the list of celebrity dancers.

Adam Carolla - Best known from his time spent with Jimmy Kimmel on The Man Show. Currently a very popular radio personality.

Christian De La Fuente - Actor. Can be seen opposite Sly Stallone in 2001's Driven.

Shannon Elizabeth - The hot foreign exchange student from American Pie. Dancing with the Stars continues to stock up on young, beautiful women.

Steve Guttenberg - Ha. I love it. The star of such classics as Police Academy, Cocoon, and Three men and a Baby. Still acting, and apparently, is going to start dancing.

Penn Jillette - Part of the Vegas comedy duo of Penn and Teller (Penn is the one that talks).

Mario - The singer that butchered Biz Markie's "Just a Friend." Also can be seen acting in the films Step Up and Freedom Writers.

Marlene Matlin - A very popular actress that may be best known for the fact that she is deaf. Can be seen in one of my favorite Seinfeld episodes of all time, 'The Lip Reader.' Dancing with the Stars brings in another star that will encounter unique challenges while learning how to dance.

Priscilla Presley - She was once married to Elvis. I wonder if the Dancing with the Stars judges will make any references to the way he shook his hips? Or maybe they will ask her if she learned anything from Michael Jackson while he was married to her daughter, Lisa Marie.

Monica Seles - The first of three athletes Dancing with the Stars is bringing on board. Monica is a former number one tennis player, and was in the news for a far more unfortunate reason when she was stabbed in 1993 at a tennis match.

Jason Taylor - A player for the Miami Dolphins, he is one of the best defensive linemen in the game today. He is bigger than Dancing with the Stars alums Jerry Rice and Emmitt Smith are, so it will be interesting to see how he is on his feet.

Marissa Jarret Winokur - A tony award winning actress. She played Tracy in the original Broadway production of Hairspray.

Kristi Yamaguchi - One of the most recognizable names in the world of figure skating. She won a gold medal in the 1992 Winter Olympics. Of all of the contestants, you would think Yamaguchi would have a leg up based on her performing arts background.

Dancing with the Stars lineup: Marlene Matlin, Penn Jillette, Marissa Jarret Winokur, Adam Carolla, Kristi Yamaguchi, Christian De La Fuente, Monica Seles, Mario, Steve Guttenberg, Jason Taylor, Shannon Elizabeth, and Priscilla Presley.

Watch Dancing with the Stars Monday and Tuesday nights on ABC.

    I really think that Capt. Sig Hansen of Deadliest Catch would be a Great choice on the line-up of this season, and he commented this was his dream, and I've seen a vedeo of him dancing and he can dance very well !!
