Bruce Jenner to Compete on Season 21 of 'Dancing With the Stars?' Top Dancers Reportedly Angling to be His Partner [Watch]
Bruce Jenner is rumored to be seriously considering competing on the next season of "Dancing with the Stars," and several of the show's top dancing pros are reportedly angling to partner with him.
Hollywood Life reports Jenner is now in talks with ABC network officials to star during Season 21, and the pros willing to partner with him are split between both male and female dancers.
The 65-year-old Olympic gold medal recently announced he is in the midst of a sex transition.
"Julianne [Hough], Derek and Mark are all vying to dance with Bruce if he signs upfor the show," a source said. "The producers have told Bruce this to sweeten the deal that if he comes onto the show, he will be given one of the best dancers they have."
More details about Jenner's transition were released in the E! Network special, "Keeping Up with the Kardashians: About Bruce." On the special, he can be seen breaking the news to his family. Later this summer, he is also slated to star in his own network documentary series, which will further depict his decision to begin living his life as a woman at the age of 65.
"You're thinking someday you're gonna get over it," Jenner said in a minute-long clip released before the airing of the show, May 17. "They're my secrets that I have to deal with on my own."
The show will see his family struggling. Kendall Jenner told her dad she wasn't happy with the way people talked about him.
"I just don't like when people say Bruce is gonna be gone," she said.
"I'm not going anywhere," he replied, trying to comfort her.
"Dancing with the Stars" execs are also rumored to be in talks with the likes of Amber Rose, Demi Moore, Jalen Rose, Amanda Bynes, Jamie Chung and Steve Ballmer about competing on next season's show.
