AceShowbiz - One celebrity who may participate in the upcoming season of "Dancing with the Stars" is revealed. Ashley Hamilton, an actor who is also known as the son of George Hamilton, reportedly is working on a deal to compete for the disco ball in the ninth season.
Should the casting report is true, then Ashley will be following his father's footstep in joining the show. In 2006, George was partnered with Edyta Sliwinska but he was the 6th to be eliminated. Ashley's mother Alana Stewart also has a reality show history, participating in the 2003 edition of "I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!".
ABC will not announce the official line-up of season 9 until August 17 on "Good Morning America". The dancing season, meanwhile, will be kicked off with a 3-night premiere starting September 21.
Apart from Ashley, there have been several names linked to the casting. Danny Osmond has expressed his interest while designer Vera Wang admitted being approached by ABC to do the show.
