New Co-Host for "Dancing"

Gotta admit I was pulling for Melissa Rycroft, former Dancing contestant and bachelor star, to be the new co-host of "Dancing With The Stars"... But the job has gone to yet another "Dancing" alum, in fact she won the whole shebang... It's Brooke Burke! Check out the People Magazine atricle about the announcement here...

I do think Brooke will do a great job... (in fact, I'll probably like her better than Samantha Harris, who she is replacing... was never really a fan of hers!)

As for the upcoming season... We also now have a list of which stars are teaming up with which pros...

• Astronaut Buzz Aldrin and Ashly Costa
• Baywatch babe Pamela Anderson and DWTS newbie Damian Whitewood
