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.
