We know well she can move around on the ice.
But we’ll soon discover whether Nancy Kerrigan can shake her groove thing under a different kind of spotlight, as Variety has confirmed the former Olympian has been cast on Dancing with the Stars Season 24.
Kerrigan, of course, is best known for her talent and for one of the most shocking scandals in Olympic history.
In January of 1994, Kerrigan was clubbed on the right knee by a police baton while walking backstage during the U.S. Figure Skating Championships in Detroit.
It later came out that the assault was planned by rival Tonya Harding’s sketchy ex-husband, Jeff Gillooly.
Harding has always denied having had any knowledge of the attack prior to its occurrence… but come on. No one ever believed her.
Although Kerrigan’s injury forced her to withdraw from the U.S. Championships, her fellow skaters agreed that she deserved one of the two spots on the Olympic team.
Incredibly, Kerrigan went on to skate very well in Lillehammer at the Olympics and earned a Silver Medal in the process.
According to Variety, a member of Fifth Harmony will join Kerrigan on Dancing with the Stars this spring, which returns with new episodes on March 20.
With Camila Cabello having left the group, this rumor means that either Ally Brooke, Normani Kordei, Dinah Jane or Lauren Jauregui will compete for the Mirrorball Trophy.
It’s also expected that current Bachelor Nick Viall will Dance with the Stars, which would continue the ABC pattern of slotting the star of one of its reality shows into a position on another network reality show.
From this same franchise, Sean Lowe, Jake Pavelka, Melissa Rycroft and Trista Sutter have all competed on past seasons of Dancing with the Stars.
As reported earlier, two more additions to the Season 24 cast have also been confirmed:
Long-time action star Mr. T is on board, with an insider telling Entertainment Tonight that producers have been trying to rope him in for years.
Last year’s Olympic Gold Medalist Simone Biles is also on board, as she’ll try to make it back-to-back gymnastic winners on the program, following Laurie Hernandez’s Season 23 victory.
The full cast list will be revealed on Good Morning America on March 1.
Which of the aforementioned Fifth Harmony singers do you want to see compete?
Which Real Housewife do you want to see join? (Come on, you know there will be one.)
Which Nickelodeon star? Which recently-retired NFL player?
We’re just going with recent trends here.
As always, ABC itself is yet to confirm any of these casting rumors.
The network never says a word until the complete cast comes out on GMA, but you can trust us here:
Mr. T, Biles and Kerrigan are all on board right now.
