DWTS Fans Gearing Up for Major Season 34 Announcement
DWTS Fans Gearing Up for Major Season 34 Announcement originally appeared on Parade. Dancing With the Stars fans are getting ready for some big news that's expected to drop on July 1. On June 30, the show's co-hosts Alfonso Ribeiro and Julianne Hough shared a video on social media teasing this big announcement. "We've got big news coming tomorrow," Hough, dressed in a black gown, said in the video. "Are you ready?" Ribeiro, who has in a black tux, asked. "More to come. Drop your guesses below," read the video's caption. Dozens of fans have been taking their best guesses as to what news could be coming on the first of the month. Many seem to think that production is ready to announce Season 34's third cast member after already confirming Robert Irwin and Alix Earle will be competing next season. Others wonder if the announcement will be something else about the show, perhaps the return of a pro, the addition of a new judge, or even a change in schedule. "It's the Mormon Wives reunion tomorrow so hopefully it will be one of them being announced to do the show!!" one person wrote. "The Lautners will be on season 34 maybe?!! Manifesting this," someone else suggested. "Adding Mark Ballas as a 4th judge? He needs to be a permanent judge on DWTS, he and Derek bring a lot to the judging panel," a third fan guessed. "Well, I hope the big news is a release date for dancing with the stars and the celebrities that's going to be on there," a fourth comment read. Season 34 of Dancing With the Stars is set to premiere on Tuesday nights starting in September. 🎬SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox🎬 DWTS Fans Gearing Up for Major Season 34 Announcement first appeared on Parade on Jun 30, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 30, 2025, where it first appeared.
