The official Dancing with the Stars 2024 cast was revealed in a promotional video shared on the show’s official Instagram this weekend.
The clip showed new host Chris Brown teaming up with his co-host Sonia Kruger as the pair race around in a car called a ‘star catcher’ looking for celebrities to kidnap for the show.
Among the stars who appeared in the promotion was AFL legend Ben Cousins, who was long rumored to be taking part.

Next up was four-time Gold Logie winner Lisa McCune, another who had long been slated to be part of the series.

Fans were already captivated by Brown and Kruger’s on-camera chemistry after the pair co-hosted the TV Week Logie Awards.
Brown was rumored to be a candidate for the DWTS co-hosting role with Kruger last year, but according to The Sunday Telegraph he missed out due to a “miscalculation” over his contract.
TV bosses were “forced to extend the invitation to Somers” after misjudging Brown’s start date at Channel Seven.
Brown officially joined Seven in July last year, which was already too late for the show’s producers, BBC Studios, to begin filming.
Better Homes and Gardens host Adam Dovile is on the lineup
