A disgraced former chef, a former boy bander and the daughter of the crocodile hunter: These are your new “Dancing with the Stars” contestants. The full list was announced this morning, and in a sign of the times, there’s also a Vine star included in the list of stars — Hayes Grier is one of the contestants. But we’re putting our money on Nick Carter for this season. The guy used to dance every night for a living! Some of those Backstreet Boys moves must still be there, right? The show returns Sept. 14 on ABC at 8 p.m., so you’ll have to check in on Mr. Carter’s chances then. Here’s the full list, courtesy of Entertainment Weekly, along with who all the professional dancing partners are.
