Paula Deen, Chaka Khan Join ‘Dancing With The Stars’
Celebrity chef Paula Deen and legendary singer Chaka Khan will be joining the cast of Dancing with the Stars for its 21st season.
They join a growing list of celebrities that includes Bindi Irwin, daughter of the late Steve Irwin, Backstreet Boy Nick Carter, and Triple Crown-winning jockey Victor Espinoza.
Deen agreed to compete after turning producers down twice, telling Extra in 2010, "They did ask me and I said no. Fat girls don't look good sweating."
The full season 21 cast of DWTS will be revealed on ABC's Good Morning America Sept. 2 and the season premiere will air Sept. 14.
