NEW YORK (AP) - A gold-medal figure skater, a country music legend and a kooky comedian are stepping their way onto "Dancing With the Stars."
ABC says Dorothy Hamill, Wynona Judd and Andy Dick are among 11 contenders for the mirrored ball on the new season of the celebrity dance competition.
Other famous faces in the show's 16th edition include standup comic and actor D.L. Hughley, Baltimore Ravens football player Jacoby Jones and former "American Idol" contestant Kellie Pickler.
Also on hand will be former welterweight boxing champ Victor Ortiz, "General Hospital" star Ingo Rademacher, actress-singer Zendaya Coleman and Lisa Vanderpump from "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," as well as Olympic gold-medal gymnast Aly Raisman.
The new "Dancing With the Stars" season kicks off on ABC with a two-hour premiere on March 18.

Having Andy Dick is a gamble for sure. Â The guy is best known for his drunken 'whipping out of the weiner' episodes lately! Â Anything could happen, maybe I should watch this show!
And the funny thing is I've only really heard of only 3 of them. Can't believe this stupid show is still on.
Andy Dick is such a prick. Â Also, this program still airs??? Â

A) I no longer watch the show.
That being said - I can not for the life of me understand why they felt the need to select such a high-profile perv sicko in Andy Dick.
@Throbbinhood Maybe they'll bring on Jon Lovitz as a surprise guest to beat the crap out of Andy Dick.  I'd tune in for that.
@Throbbinhood his last name says everything about him!
