The official cast for Dancing with the Stars 2024 has been revealed in a promo video shared to the show’s official Instagram this weekend.
The clip showed new host Chris Brown team up with his co-host Sonia Kruger as the pair race around in a car named the ‘star catcher’ looking for celebrities to kidnap for the show.
Among the stars appearing in the promo was AFL legend Ben Cousins, who has long been rumoured to be taking part.
The 45-year-old footy star, who has been rebuilding his life in recent years after a fall from grace, explained that part of his redemption arc will include reality TV.
Next up was four-time Gold Logie winner Lisa McCune, another who was long slated to be part of the series.
Another beloved star – MasterChef Australia fan favourite Julie Goodwin – appeared next in the promo cooking up a storm.
‘Life is too short to say no to something like this,’ Goodwin told The Daily Telegraph.
‘Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine I would be capable of dancing,’ she continued
‘I have always loved to watch the show, and to watch people dance, but it never occurred to me that one day I might be able to do it too.’
