Entertainment TV Reality TV Ballroom Blips? 16 Celebs You Forgot Competed on 'Dancing with the Stars' PEOPLE is celebrating the Sept. 18 premiere of Dancing with the Stars' 25th season with 25 days of exclusive interviews, fun retrospectives, and new details about what fans can expect from the milestone season. By People Staff Published on June 30, 2017 03:53PM EDT Close 01 of 16 KIM KARDASHIAN Kelsey McNeal/ABC/Getty Season 7 (2008) Long before she broke the Internet, the Kimoji Kween tried her hand at a different kind of reality television alongside pro Mark Ballas. She headed home third — but no one really stood a chance going up against the season's eventual winner, Brooke Burke-Charvet, who went on to co-host the show from 2010–13. That said, the Kardashian family always finds a way! Three years after Kim's twirl on teh boards, her baby brother Rob Kardashian and his partner Cheryl Burke took second in season 13. —Aurelie Corinthios 02 of 16 DAVID HASSELHOFF Season 11 (2010) If there's one thing Baywatch fans learned in this season, it’s that The Hoff is better on the beach than he is in the ballroom. The actor, alongside partner Kym Johnson, survived the competition for just one week before getting the boot for his cha-cha. Safe to say, this was no smooth sailing. —Joelle Goldstein 03 of 16 PAMELA ANDERSON Adam Taylor/ABC/Getty Season 10 (2010) The Baywatch bombshell danced her way to season 7 with Damian Whitewood before being shown the door. She returned in 2012 for DWTS All-Stars but was eliminated with partner Tristan MacManus in the first round. Anderson has continued her acting career, and as iconic the Baywatch babe, was in 2017’s movie version of the series. —Alexis Chestnov 04 of 16 JERRY SPRINGER Season 3 (2006) The talk show ringleader was barely edged out in week 7 when his foxtrot and mambo fell a few points behind the competition. Here’s hoping we get a special DWTS episode of The Jerry Springer Show where the season 3 contestants air out their elimination grievances. Jerry! Jerry! Jerry! —Benjamin Vanhoose 05 of 16 TRISTA SUTTER Adam Larkey/ABC/Getty Season 1 (2005) The former Miami Heat cheerleader was one of just six stars vying for the Mirrorball Trophy on the show's first season. Sadly, her stint was short — she and partner Louis Van Amstel were the first sent home. But she's still the only Bachelorette to have graced the ballroom's dance floor! (Four Bachelors have competed — though none have won.) —Aurelie Corinthios 06 of 16 JOEY McINTYRE Season 1 (2005) True Blockheads will remember the NKOTB star's stint on the reality competition's inaurgural season. Though the triple threat is better known for his singing and acting, he actually managed to samba his way to third place with partner Ashly DelGrosso. —Lanford Beard 07 of 16 SHANNEN DOHERTY Adam Larkey/ABC/Getty Season 10 (2010) The Beverly Hills, 90210 bad girl showed a softer side of herself during her two weeks competing with Mark Ballas. Despite dedicating the season to her father, who had suffered a stroke before Doherty signed on, the actress never quite quite Charmed voters enough with her first two performances — she was sent home first. —Lanford Beard 08 of 16 DENISE RICHARDS Season 8 (2009) Denise Richards made it to the week 3 with partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy. Like her marriage to Charlie Sheen, it looks like this was yet another partnership with a bad boy that wasn't meant to last. —Alexis Chestnov 09 of 16 STEVE-O Kelsey McNeal/ABC/Getty Season 8 (2009) Lasting six weeks before being booted off, Steve-O suffered several injuries throughout his time on the show. The Jackass star and dancing partner Lacey Schwimmer's final dance was a rumba, for which they received a 16 out of 30 from the judges. —Benjamin Vanhoose 10 of 16 SHANNON ELIZABETH Kelsey McNeal/ABC/Getty Season 6 (2008) While American Pie's Shannon Elizabeth certainly looked the part alongside DWTS' most-decorated pro Derek Hough, they only managed to make it just past the show's midpoint, getting eliminated seventh due to stellar performances by the remaining cast. —Liam Berry 11 of 16 BILLY RAY CYRUS Season 4 (2007) The country music singer and actor danced his way to a top-five finish, putting together a nice run on the dance floor with partner Karina Smirnoff. But it was ultimately speed skater Apolo Anton Ohno who made it to the finish line and secured the Mirrorball Trophy. —Jack Henkels 12 of 16 MACY GRAY Adam Larkey/ABC/Getty Season 9 (2009) The singer-songwriter best known for her 1999 single “I Try,” certainly did try on the ninth season of DWTS. Unfortunately for Gray and her partner Jonathan Roberts, their efforts were only enough to stave off elimination once, as they were the second pair say to quickstep out of the ballroom. —Jack Henkels 13 of 16 STEVE WOZNIAK Kelsey McNeal/ABC/Getty Season 8 (2009) Due to his effusively positive energy and Teddy Bear-like appeal, the Woz and partner Karina Smirnoff managed to cha-cha their way to week 4, when they were finally eliminated due to low judge scores. Wozniak’s appearance was a nice boost for Apple's PR team, which was dealing with former CEO Steve Jobs' declining health at the time. —Liam Berry 14 of 16 TONI BRAXTON Kelsey McNeal/ABC/Getty Season 7 (2008) Braxton proved she has more than just the chops to sing in a season that saw future-DWTS host Brooke Burke take home the gold. Braxton and partner Alec Mazo were eliminated fifth, and it certainly came as a surprise as they were a consistent couple from the start. Her sister Tamar later competed in season 21 and was similar the victim of a surprise elimination. File under: Unbreak Their Hearts. —Joelle Goldstein 15 of 16 PENN JILLETTE Kelsey McNeal/ABC/Getty Season 6 (2008) There was, apparently, no room for magic on the show's sixth season. The world-famous illusionist and dance partner Kym Johnson were sent packing in the show's first round of eliminations. What would Teller have to say about this? Oh, right … —Liam Berry 16 of 16 MARGARET CHO Adam Larkey/ABC/Getty Season 11 (2010) The funny lady's partnership with Louis Van Amstel was short-lived but full of pride. Cho headed home third in a season that was dominated controversial contestant Bristol Palin and Dirty Dancing star–turned–eventual winner Jennifer Grey. Hey, if anybody's going to put you in a corner, it might as well be Baby herself! —Lanford Beard
