The cast of season 24 of the hit reality Tv show “Dancing with the Stars” was announced reside on “Superior Morning America” today.

This year’s lineup of stars features decorated Olympic gymnast Simone Biles, legendary figure skater Nancy Kerrigan, and the “Genuine Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Erika Jayne, amongst other celebrities from music, television and sports, who will all be hitting the dance floor to battle each other for the mirrorball trophy this season.

Biles, who will be dancing with companion Sasha Farber, joins the cast the season following her Olympic teammate, Laurie Hernandez, took home the trophy last season.
