  • Dancing with the Stars shared new teasers for the upcoming season 28 cast to Instagram.

  • Fans are speculating singer Jessica Simpson may be among the stars competing for the Mirrorball Trophy this fall.

  • The full list of contestants will be announced on Good Morning America, Wednesday Aug. 21.


She can sing, she can run a super successful business, but can Jessica Simpson ballroom dance? Fans may not have to wait long to find out. The latest Dancing with the Stars season 28 teaser photo has rumors flying that Jessica will join the cast.

Y'all this is big, as in Lone Star State big, news. The new promo photo has a lot of clues hiding in plain sight, so fans put on their detective caps and got to work in the comments section. The most popular answer: Jessica.

The DancingABC account shared a photo of a vanity table piled high with clues about the latest cast member. The caption offers a few hints: "Can you figure it out? 🤔 She’s a queen on stage already – Can’t wait to see how she does in the #DWTS ballroom. Catch the entire cast reveal on @goodmorningamerica this Wednesday!"

The picture is packed with personal details. There is a rack of dresses and a microphone on a stand, hinting at Jessica's fashion line and singing career. There's also an outline of Texas on the wall, and sure enough Jessica hails from the Lone Star State. Last but not least, there's a Cancer symbol on the table. Jessica's birthday is July 10, putting her squarely in Cancer season.

If it is her, Jessica would be in good company with other leading ladies rumored to be lacing up their dancing shoes. She may be going toe to toe with former Bachelorette Hannah Brown, Queer Eye's Karamo Brown, and even Dance Moms star Abby Lee Miller. These aren't official yet, but season 28 is heating up before it begins.

The official Dancing With the Stars cast announcement is coming Wednesday on Good Morning America, during the August 21 show. The countdown is on.
