ABC officially announces the cast for the upcoming 13th season of the immensely popular reality dance competition show Dancing With the Stars Monday night, but some names have already leaked including Jersey Shore‘s Snooki, Queen Latifa, White Collar (and Saved By the Bell) actress Tiffani Thiessen, and reality star Rob Kardashian.
Celebuzz has now revealed that we should add The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star (and Paris Hilton’s aunt) Kim Richards to the list, claiming the 46-year-old mother of four “has been rehearsing her moves in the studio and could be in the lineup when the cast is announced next week.”
Kim was a HUGE child star, appearing in such memorable roles as Tia Malone in Escape to Witch Mountain and Olga Nordstorm, Laura Ingall’s friend with one leg shorter than the other on Little House On the Prairie. (You can see some video clips of Kim’s television acting resume in our posts titled Top 5 Kim Richards Television Clips.
Kim is coming off a very rough year after her appearance on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills caused a falling out with her sister Kyle Richards and exposed to the world that she had a drinking problem. In the RHoBH Season 2 preview trailer it appears as though has regained some of her self confidence and appears to be getting her act together, which is a good thing if she expects to have a chance on Dancing With the Stars!
