‘Dancing With the Stars’ Season 16 Cast Revealed

In a live telecast Tuesday (Feb. 26) morning, ABC announced the celebs that would sashay and pivot across the ballroom for the 16th season of Dancing With the Stars.
As per usual, there’s a football player, an Olympic gold medalist (a gymnast and a figure skater), reality star and Disney star.
