Are You More Excited for the DWTS Season 13 Pros or DWTS Season 13 Stars?
As I read through the comments and DWTS tweets, I get the feeling that there’s a mixed reaction to the Dancing with the Stars Season 13 cast. Although, I’d say it’s about like every year where some hate certain stars and others love them.
One thing that has continued to grow is fans of DWTS’s love of the DWTS pros. In fact, I’m now regularly seeing people talk about being more excited for the DWTS Season 13 pros than they are for the DWTS season 13 stars. I decided to put it to a vote, and the early results are quite clear who DWTS fans like more (click which one you like better to see the results):
Side Note: I’m still hating that it seems Chelsie Hightower isn’t on this season of DWTS. I’m not sure Peta will make up for my loss of Chelsie and Edyta.
I have a feeling that there will be some A listers that they are keeping under wraps. I had heard that there will be 20 couples this season and only 11 of those have been revealed….
i heard the same thing ali i heard 20 ….thats alot though who n=knows we will find out tonite
Great poll John. I love both, but, I voted for Pros!! Plus, I watch the show for my love of “dancing” itself.
As for the pros, I’m happy to have Derek back. I’m also happy that Peta’s a pro, but bummed Chelsie isn’t on, and indifferent on Val and Tristan.
Stars-I was expecting a better group of stars for some reason. I think there are more than a couple headcases on this season, but I’m excited to watch it all play out.
For me, it’s the pros!:)
Dude, my post just choked on itself!
Anyway, I tried to say that I just saw another site post about Bono from U2 being a “star” this year, but I’m 99.9% sure they’re wrong, though that would definitely be considered “A-list” for me! I’m thinking whoever runs that site (can’t remember the name) saw the name “Bono” and ran with it.
As for Pros v. Stars, I’m ambivalent about the stars until I see them dance. Then I’ll pick a few to root for. But for the first few weeks for me, it’s all about the pros, especially the new three. Can’t wait to see what they’ll do!
I favor the pros over the stars and will miss Chelsie, too, if she really isn’t coming back. I would really like to see Charlotte Jorgenson again. She would be a perfect pairing for an older male star.
Magnolia,
That might have been my fault that your post choked. I made a minor tweak to something and it caused a major problem. I fixed it pretty quickly, but if your timing was good (or bad if you prefer), then your comment could have choked. Sorry about that. Hopefully no more back end changes for a bit.
I could see how Chaz Bono could get confused with Bono from U2. How much better would Bono be than Chaz though?
You’re misinformed. There are 12 couples.
Definitely more excited about the pros this season! My fav is future bride Karina Smirnoff who’ll be shopping for wedding rings at the Robbins Brothers Mission Viejo store on Sept. 8 (6-8p). Can’t wait to meet her in person! She’s also giving away a free dance lesson to a lucky couple who attends the event. Details:

Tracey, I’m a big fan of Karina’s, too. She’s my second favorite pro. The pros have become my favorite part of the show. I enjoy watching the celebs make progress, but the pros are the highlight of the show for me.
Watching for the pros this season and looking forward to seeing Chelsie, Louis and Dmitry in the pro dances.
Its all about the pros for me , especially Derek, Derek, Derek!
@John, no worries. I just thought it was funny!
Any word on who the new people in the troupe are? I have a lead on one that I’m about 97% sure is true, but as far as the others, I’m clueless. They were replacing one man (Tristan) and two women (Peta and Nicole). Just curious if anyone knows who the two new women are. It seems like Nicole has a lot going on, so I’m not surprised she didn’t return, just a little disappointed since I did think she was great.
If I understand correctly, Louis is not dancing as a pro, but just a ballroom battler? And how Maks said he would be joining us again because of a ‘new segment’ a.k.a ballroom battle, yet he’s not going to be in it?? Confused.
I’m always more excited for the pros. 🙂
The reason I watch dwts: Karina Smirnoff
The pros are my biggest reasons for watching…sometimes a celeb will catch my attention. However, if it’s true that Dymitry and Chelsea will not be on this season; I willbe truly bummed!!! Dymitry and Max have always been my favorites.
