Check out who will be  twinkle-toeing all over the dance floor when DANCING WITH THE STARS returns for its new season on March 21st on ABC.

Ralph Macchio – “The Karate Kid”
He’s a successful actor, writer, director and producer. And we’ll always love Ralph Macchio for being The Karate Kid. He chopped and kicked his way to stardom in that classic crowd-pleasing flick and as well as its successors, The Karate Kid, Part II and The Karate Kid, Part III. Ralph’s extensive list of film credits includes Francis Ford Coppola’s The Outsiders and the hit comedy My Cousin Vinny.

Ray was host and mentor for the first three seasons of the TV series, The Contender, on NBC and ESPN. Regarding the big screen, Ray appeared in the The Fighter and served as a consultant on the upcoming film Real Steel, starring Hugh Jackman.

Wendy Williams – “The Queen of All Media”
Called a “breakthrough in daytime” by The New York Times, Wendy Williams burst onto the national talk show scene in 2009 with the launch of her daily, syndicated program, The Wendy Williams Show. Touted by People as one of the “best shows of 2009,” the critically-acclaimed series now has the distinction of being destination television. A mother, wife and bestselling author, Wendy built a devoted following from her years as one of radio’s most popular personalities. In addition to her daytime TV success, Wendy will host GSN’s new original series Love Triangle, slated to premiere April of 2011.

Chris Jericho – “Wrestling’s Superman”
A 6-time WWE world champion, 2-time NY Times best-selling author, lead singer of the rock band Fozzy and host of the ABC game show, Downfall, Jericho began wrestling at age 19 and is best known as one of the most popular performers in wrestling history. In 2001, he was the first ever Undisputed Champion of the WWE and is the only performer to have held six different titles in the 44-year history of World Wrestling Entertainment. Jericho became a New York Times bestselling author in 2007 with his autobiography, A Lion’s Tale: Around the World in Spandex, and is currently on the list again with his follow-up, Undisputed: How To Become The World Champion in 1,372 Easy Steps, his second auto-biography. His rock band Fozzy has sold a quarter million CDs worldwide.

Hines Ward – “The Super Bowl Steeler”
He’s a four-time Pro Bowler, three-time Super Bowl participant, two-time Super Bowl champ, and the Super Bowl XL MVP. Now Hines Ward is adding “ballroom dancer” to his already-impressive resume. Hines holds virtually every record in Pittsburgh Steelers’ wide receiving history and will go down as the team’s all-time leading wide receiver. He was named to the Steelers’ 75th Season All-Time Team and will be entering his 14th season with Pittsburgh this upcoming fall. That makes him the longest tenured wide receiver with the same NFL team.

Kendra Wilkinson – “The Bunny Next Door”
TV personality/glamour girl Kendra Wilkinson is probably best known from her self-titled hit reality series Kendra. Just wrapping its 3rd season on E!, the show follows Kendra, NFL star hubby Hank Baskett, and son Hank IV through their crazy lives. Between life in the spotlight, raising a toddler and the challenges of being an NFL wife, the show is a fun-filled, action-packed look into Kendra’s world. Kendra got her start on one of E! Entertainment’s highest-rated shows, The Girls Next Door. She was on the reality hit for five seasons until 2009. That’s when Kendra closed one chapter in her life and started a new one. And by that we mean she got married, celebrated the birth of son Hank IV and of course, launched her hit show, Kendra.

Kirstie Alley – “Hollywood’s Most Outrageous Actress”
Kirstie Alley has emerged as one of the top actresses of her generation, proving time and again that she is capable of great depth and range, as well as a comedic timing second to none. Kirstie’s TV work earned her seven Golden Globe and eight Emmy nominations. She’s won a Golden Globe, two Emmys and three People’s Choice Awards. Kirstie co-wrote and starred in Showtime’s critically acclaimed comedy Fat Actress. She also played the title character in the NBC sitcom Veronica’s Closet and also served as executive producer.
Mike Catherwood – ‘Loveline’s Lover Boy”
Born and raised in Los Angeles, Mike Catherwood (aka “Psycho Mike”) has an eclectic background from the city that made him the person he is today. After finishing school, Mike returned to L.A. to become a member of the top-rated Kevin & Bean Morning Show on KROQ-FM. Known to listeners as “Psycho Mike,” he has developed many of the show’s most well-known characters and segments. His often-controversial music has garnered him worldwide notice and acclaim. In addition to the Kevin & Bean Show, Mike is the co-host of Loveline Radio with Dr. Drew Pinsky.
