If you haven’t seen actress and singer Brandy in a while, let me warn you that she is smoking hot as a young lady and a competitor on the new season of Dancing with the Stars, which begins on Monday, Sept. 20 at 9 p.m. BRANDY Podcast Excerpt: "I've always wanted to do 'Dancing With the Stars' but I'm scared to death!" As for former L.A. Laker Rick Fox, who is also on the show—he’s still very tall. And, I guess, handsome, but I’m not interested in guys. They’re both in one of the most diverse seasons ever for the show. Stepping to the cha-cha-cha this time around, you’ll find Sarah’s famous daughter, Bristol Palin, The Situation from MTV’s “Jersey Shore,” singer Michael Bolton, comedian Margaret Cho, actress Jennifer Grey, Mrs. Brady herself, Florence Henderson, NFL quarterback Kurt Warner, Audrina Partridge from “The Hills” and Kyle Massey from Disney’s “Cory in the House.” Sounds like a great bunch to have over for Thanksgiving dinner this year, doesn’t it?
