So the new “Dancing with the Stars” cast was announced… Is it a pre-req ot have a largie in the cast so everyone can talk about how much weight she’s lost during the show? Also, are you as embarassed for Gavin DeGraw as I am? I think Maria Menounos or Urkel (aka: Jaleel White) are going to take home the big trophy.
