I know who two of the "stars" are, and I think I know who one more is. The barrel is empty.

I know who Debbie Gibson and Terrell Owens are. I've heard of Nick Lachey, but I don't remember why. That is all.

But I don't ever watch this show. For real dancing, it's SYTYCD and World of Dance. DWTS is like watching paint dry and marveling at the colors.

From Jordan Fisher's Wikipedia article:
Jordan William Fisher (born April 24, 1994) is an American singer, dancer and actor. His self-titled EP was released by Hollywood Records on August 19, 2016. He has had recurring roles on the television series, The Secret Life of the American Teenager and Liv and Maddie, and supporting roles in the television films, Teen Beach Movie, Teen Beach 2 and Grease: Live, and is featured on the Moana soundtrack. He assumed the role of John Laurens/Philip Hamilton in the Broadway production of Hamilton on November 22, 2016. He played Noah Patrick in the tv series Teen Wolf.
I'm surprised he hasn't showed up in a Tangredi yet.

Is "Malcolm in the Middle" one of them?

I suppose he's done something since that show ended, but nothing comes to mind.

Only heard of 3 of them. No clue on the others.

I've only read that he's been racing cars.

His IMDB page shows several guest appearances on shows (playing himself).

Some of these people are not all that obscure:

Barbara Corcoran--Shark Tank
Debbie Gibson--80s pop star
Frankie Muniz--Malcolm in the Middle
Nick Lachey--98 Degrees, host of The Sing-Off
Terrell Owens--sportsball player

Nice gimmick: Nick Lachey and his wife Vanessa (used to be on Entertainment Tonight, apparently) are partnered with married couple Peta Murgatroyd and Maks Chmerkovskiy. Also, Nick's brother Drew won season 2 of DWTS.

None of this means I'll be watching. Looking at Wikipedia it looks like I watched pretty regularly in seasons 6-8, started up again in seasons 12-15, then lost interest for good.

Those of you who watch SYTYCD and DWTS already have seen Lindsey Stirling -- she is the dancing violinist who was on AGT and then played her hit "Crystallize" on DWTS, with Allison Holker and Twitch as the dancers. (The song allows for a great fusion of contemporary ballet and hip hop. My son did a piece choreographed on him a couple years ago to this song.)

She has a very popular Youtube channel and tours nationally. (She will be in Omaha during the first week in December).

Talk about weird coincidences. I'd never heard of her before, but right after I read Appa's reply I checked my e-mail and found I got a notice that she will be in concert here in Atlanta November 22 (I'm on the auditorium's e-mailing list).

I missed seeing her here in Tucson because I had the new job in Chicago. I'm sorry I missed the playing on DWTS but won't bother with watching her dance.

This is a good illustration of why I would suck on BAM these days. When you only recognize 3-4 contestants on Dancing, you are certainly out of date with regard to pop culture.
