The man who single-handedly made the mustache hot again is joining Dancing With The Stars. Yes, we're talking about Tom Selleck. He was apparently talked into it Steve Guttenberg, who was a part of last season's cast.
Producers thought Tom would be a major draw to the cougar demographic. And let's be honest…do you know any moms who don't love that show?!
This is shaping up to be an interesting cast! Kim Kardashian is in, as well as her mom Kris Jenner, as well as Toni Braxton and Lance Bass, to name a couple.
Poor Tara Reid, who was reportedly denied several times from the show, for not being "family friendly" enough. We're psyched to see Selleck's dance floor moves!
I have nothing against DWTS, but I'm a little disappointed to hear that TS is doing this. With his talent and abilities, it just seems there would/should be something better out there for him. I don't why, but I kind of relate this show to attracting celebrities whos careers are slowing down. Don't want TS to have that image or perception.
I've never seen DWTS, by it does seem to be wildly popular with the under 40 female crowd. The weekly (?) results are big news in mags like US Weekly.
A stint on a show like that is going to expose TS to loads of people who aren't familiar with him....not a bad thing. He should get lots of press...also, not a bad thing. And, he will end up in great shape...again, not a bad thing. He'll probably have a great time doing it, as well. JMO
Higgins: You've washed the car?! How extraordinary. Why would you do such a thing?

Myself, I've only watched DWTS a few times but I agree with you. The show is probably one of the most popular and talked about shows. It's always top of the ratings every week if not the #1 show.
It will definitely show a side of TS we've never seen before which will be fun. Plus, he'll will get tons of press. You'll see him everywhere.
My husband -- who's not a dancer by any means -- has become hooked on DWTS. After seeing Emmitt Smith do so well a couple of seasons back, I was even able to convince him to take beginner ballroom dancing lessons with me through our local Adult Ed. Not that either of us remember anything we learned!
I'm kinda conflicted about the prospects of seeing TS on the show. But in addition to Steve G, Jane Seymour also did it, so what the hey!
The official "new cast" announcement is scheduled for August 25th.
