"Dancing in the Stars" is coming back in two months, and the show's producers and pro dancers have been busy making wish lists for Season 24. In the report, it is said that before she led to the People's Choice Awards past this week, Cheryl Burke teased that she may be competing on Season 24 of Dancing with the Stars, which premieres March 20 on ABC.

The 32-year-old pro dancer took a three-season break from DWTS before recurring last season to dance with Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte. They placed seventh and it looks like Cheryl is pursuing to do better during Season 24 by scoring an extremely popular partner. The International Business Times reported that the two-time Mirrorball Trophy winner showed her dream Dancing with the Stars partner during CBS' Facebook live stream of the People's Choice Awards red carpet.

Burke told that she would love to partner up with Blake Shelton and also stated that she always say people that would never do it. The previous time Cheryl Burke won Dancing with the Stars, she was paired with a different kind of cowboy: former Dallas Cowboys running back Emmitt Smith. Cheryl and the Super Bowl champ got the Season 3Mirrorball Trophy. At her first win, arose the season before with "98 Degrees" singer Drew Lachey, as cited on the INQUISITR.

Dancing with the Stars Executive Producer Deena Katz also lately mentioned the name of a celebrity who she desires to see on DWTS. Katz said Dance Network's Kristyn Burtt that she's attending to the Los Angeles Women's March today, and she's wanting to persuade one of the event's famous attendees to sign on for Season 24 of Dancing with the Stars.

In the report, Katz also mentioned that she had her casting hat on full twenty-four hours a day. That she was the first person in America hired and there is not a day that goes by that she's not working on it and searching people out. She said to trust her that she might be asking Jane Fonda that day.

Jane Fonda is at the moment 79-years-old, but she wouldn't be the oldest celebrity to join on Dancing with the Stars. That honor goes to Cloris Leachman, who performed on the show when she was 82, as cited on Dailymail.

Deena Katz assisted organizing the L.A. Women's March, so she would possibly get the chance to speak to all of its celebrity participants. Doubt actress Laverne Cox and Broadway star Idina Menzel will be meeting Jane Fonda at the event, as will Married with Children actress Christina Applegate, comedian Keegan Michael Key, and singer Ariana Grande.

Katz said that she would bet someone who ends up dancing there on this next season. She also said she doesn't know who but that she will look at the list and see what happens. The list contains over 50 celebrities, so Katz has quite a lot of options to choose from. Dancing with the Stars pro Sasha Farber and his Season 23 partner, Little Women LA star Terra Jolé, will be amongst the contestants.

During the latest interview with Glamour, DWTS Executive Producer Rob Wade exposed that the celebrity cast for Season 24 is halfway complete. The Bachelor star Nick Viall has stated an interest in competing on the show, as has Drew Scott, one half of HGTV's Property Brothers. As the INQUISITR formerly reported, pro dancer Emma Slater listed Drew's brother Jonathan as one of her top three dream partners along with Storage Wars star Barry Weiss and comedian Russell Brand.

Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles has also stated an interest in challenging on Season 24 of Dancing with the Stars. Her colleague gymnast, Laurie Hernandez, took home last season's Mirrorball Trophy. Biles lately stopped by the DWTS tour to watch Hernandez complete, so there's a good chance that she's being seen by the show's producers.

As far as pros are concerned, most of the Season 23 cast will in fact return for Season 24. Though, Derek Hough will be busy working on other projects, so he may be swapped by Mark Ballas. It's also indistinct whether Maks Chmerkovskiy and Peta Murgatroyd will come back or whether they'll take some time off to be with their new baby.
