Dancing With The Stars is set to premiere Season 35 this fall. With a new season on the horizon, the show has already announced a few celebrity participants, but who else will appear in the ballroom this season? Here are our predictions.
Dancing With The Stars Season 35 Celebrity Predictions
Aspyn Ovard
The past few seasons, there’s been the inclusion of a social media/reality show celebrity. Though some could argue both Maura Higgins and Ciara Miller check that box, Aspyn is a great inclusion due to her place on the new ABC series Secret Lives of Mormon Lives Orange County. Aside from the reality show, Aspyn has gained fame on YouTube, for her previous marriage.
our next chapter guys!!!!
Caleb McLaughlin
We wouldn’t be surprised to see a Stranger Things star on this season of Dancing With The Stars, since the finale garnered so much attention in early 2026. Our prediction is Caleb McLaughlin, who played Lucas Sinclair, since he had studied dance at multiple schools, including Harlem School of the Arts, before landing his role on Stranger Things. It would be great storyline to see his return to dance.

Connor Storrie
He’s not heading to the cottage, he’s (potentially) headed to the ballroom this fall. It’s no secret that Heated Rivalry was one of the biggest shows on television in 2026, so Dancing With The Stars has to be casting someone from the series. Obviously, we hope to see both Ilya and Shane compete, even if it’s not on ice.

Evan Bates
Earlier this year, the hot topic of the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics was figure skating. In the ice dance category was Evan Bates and his wife Madison Chock. The pair made national headlines for their undeniable chemistry on and off the ice. It would be fun to see the couple, who normally competes as a team, be competitors.

There’s no way Dancing With The Stars will cast Ilya and not Shane right… right?? Like stated for Connor Storrie, we hope to see both Ilya and Shane compete, even if it’s not on ice.

Jillian Webber
TikTok influencer Jillian Webber gained national attention on TikTok within the past two years due to her dance videos. Specifically, she blew up from the trend created by Molly Long Choreography to the song “Pop Muzik” by M (Robin Scott). She recently shared a video of her doing that dance on the Dancing With The Stars tour stage. She later shared multiple videos featuring pros Val Chmerkovskiy and Jenna Johnson.

Lindsey Vonn
There’s no denying that people love a comeback story. Another widely televised news story from the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics was Lindsey Vonn’s injury. For those who may have missed it, Vonn fractured her left leg, including her tibia, fibula head, and tibial plateau, in a severe crash during the women’s downhill race. She’s still actively gaining back her mobility since her crash and recently was a commencement speaker at USC Annenberg.
Madison Chock
The internet created the theory that Evan Bates and Madison Chock would be competing against one another on the upcoming season of Dancing With The Stars, and we think that’s a total possibility. As stated above, Chock and her husband Bates typically perform together, so it would be entertaining watching them compete against one another.

Noah Beck
TikTok star Noah Beck is also in the weird in between of being known as a TikToker and being known as an actor. Since gaining traction on TikTok, he’s recently taken on more acting work. He’s reportedly been cast in the remake of Baywatch.
this song+dance just oozes good vibes tbh

Sydney Sweeney
Euphoria actress Sydney Sweeney has been the talk of national headlines for quite some time. After rising to fame in Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and HBO’s White Lotus, Sweeney took on the role of Cassie Howard in Euphoria. Due to the nature of the character, the celebrity quickly gained popularity, and had her fair share of controversies.
