A new cohort of celebs is about to descend on the brightly lit podium located inside Los Angeles's CBS Television City, the shooting location of Season 31 of Dancing With the Stars. Stepping into the shoes of DWTS alumni like Kim Kardashian and Chrishell Stause, the new contestants will no doubt feel under pressure to showcase their finest moves and impress the viewers with their ability to nail even the most complicated salsa and Viennese waltz routines.

The lineup of Season 31 has already garnered considerable buzz — and it's easy to see why. Charli D'Amelio, mom, Heidi, and Jordin Sparks are some of the A-listers who will make their debut in the Season 31 premiere of DWTS on Sept. 19, 2022. Colton Underwood (of The Bachelor fame) will join the cast too. Comedian and actor Wayne Brady and CODA star Daniel Durant are expected to compete in Season 31 of DWTS as well.

Heidi and Charlie are DWTS’s first mother-daughter duo competing against each other. However, they plan on supporting each other through the process, though Charlie hopes her dad, Marc, and sister, Dixie, vote for her instead of Heidi.

“There's definitely going to be a little side-eye if my own father or sister don't vote for me," Charli shared with Good Morning America in September 2022. "I guess we're going to have to see who they like better. ... I think my sister is definitely on my side. She is my roommate, so she has to live with me — she better be on my side!"
