Dancing With The Stars Season 17 Cast: Bill Nye, Jack Osbourne Featured, Keyshawn Johnson Eliminated
Bill Nye "The Science Guy" is more known for his educational programs for children, but lately the scientist has found himself branching out to the dancing world.
"Dancing With The Stars" this season is featuring Nye along with partner Tyne Stecklein, and both of them have become a fan favorite in the process. Following Nye's performance on the show this week, the crowd broke out into a "Bill, Bill, Bill" chant despite that he tripped during the performance.
Former NFL star and current ESPN personality Keyshawn Johnson was also brought in as a contestant in the show, but he was the odd man out this week as he was eliminated. He said he has had to travel back and forth each week between Connecticut and Los Angeles to both compete in the show and maintain his role as an NFL analyst.
So as Bill Nye remains alive heading into the next round, let's take a look at some of the rest of the contestants he will be facing on the road ahead. Amber Riley and partner Derek Hough received rave reviews as Riley even did a cartwheel; Corbin Bleu and Karina Smirnoff were rated with a 9, 8, and 9; and even Jack Osbourne, Snooki, and others were in the show and made it to the next round.
Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne were in the audience to cheer for Jack, and according to USA Today, Sharon told her son during rehearsal to "get that terrified look off your face."
The season's third episode will air next Monday at 8 p.m. Eastern time on ABC.
