The new season of Dancing With the Stars premiers in a two-night special on September 14th and I am so excited!

I’m excited for the show to be back and to see how all the cast members get on. I’m also excited to get back to doing recaps as I thoroughly enjoyed it last time.

Season 21 will see the return of Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews as hosts, as well as Carrie Ann Inaba, Julianne Hough, and Bruno Tonioli as judges. Len Goodman won’t be a judge this season.

Many of the celeb guests have been announced in the past couple weeks, but the final list was revealed today (September 2nd) on Good Morning America. The couples are as follows:

Tamar Braxton & Val Chmerkovkiy

Gary Busey & Anna Trebunskaya

Nick Carter & Sharna Burgess

Paula Deen & Louis van Amstel

Victor Espinoza & Karina Smirnoff

Andy Grammer & Allison Holker

Hayes Grier & Emma Slater

Bindi Irwin & Derek Hough

Chaka Khan & Keo Motsepe

Alexa PenaVega & Mark Ballas

Carlos PenaVega & Witney Carson

Alex Skarlatos & Lindsay Arnold

Kim Zolciak & Tony Dovolani

I am very excited to see how these couples get on, it’s definitely an interesting group this season.

Some of the pros are returning after some time off from the show so it’ll be interesting too to see how they get on after being away for so long.

Personally I’m #TeamBindiandDerek (or, you know, whatever their actual team name is) and am keeping my fingers crossed that they go far.

Who are you most excited to see this season?

Which couple are you rooting for?
