Dancing With The Stars is certainly not the first reality show many of these celebrities have appeared on.

In addition to MasterChef stars Hayden Quinn and Julie Goodwin, Nova Peris previously competed on Australian Survivor in 2019, Adam Doville got his start on House Rules in 2014, Shane Crawford and Samantha Jade appeared on Celebrity Apprentice in 2011 and 2022, respectively, and Nikki Osborne challenged herself on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in 2020.

Speaking of I’m A Celebrity, the show’s former host Dr Chris Brown will be joining Sonia Kruger on DWTS as her co-host for the very first time, replacing Daryl Somers.

The judging panel for season 21 will also be made up of Craig Revel Horwood, Sharna Burgess, Helen Richey and Mark Wilson, with Todd McKenny leaving the show.

Dancing With The Stars is coming soon to Channel Seven.
