Kurt Warner, Rick Fox Joining ‘The Situation’ on ‘Dancing With the Stars’

Kurt Warner's career took him on a path from the grocery store to the Arena Football League to a borderline Hall of Fame career in the NFL. Now, with his spikes hung up for good, the 39-year-old is trying on a new pair of dancing shoes.

The cast of next season's Dancing With The Stars was released on Monday night, with Jersey Shore's Michael "The Situation" Sorrentino, former Baywatch star David Hasselhoff and the retired quarterback headlining the list.

Also included is former Laker and Celtic Rick Fox, singers Michael Bolton and Brandy, actors Kyle Massey, Florence Henderson and Jennifer Grey, comedian Margaret Cho, reality star Audrina Patridge and Bristol Palin.

Last season, the show received heat from fans when professional singer/dancer Nicole Scherzinger won. This year, it appears to be a more level playing field (especially without an octogenarian "competing").

The two-hour season premiere will air Sept. 20 at 8 p.m.
