The 30th season of ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars” features two Atlantans: “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Kenya Moore and former NBA player Iman Shumpert.
The show, which returns Sept. 20, will feature a typical array of reality stars, singers, social media influencers, actors and athletes.
Moore has been on “Housewives” for much of the past decade, clashing with many of the other women in a colorful style. She also married New York restaurateur Marc Daly, had a baby, and is now in the process of getting divorced.
Shumpert, who now lives in Atlanta, has spent the past decade in the NBA, playing most of his career for the New York Knicks and the Cleveland Cavaliers, where he won a championship in 2016. He is on an E! reality show with his wife Teyana Taylor called “We Got Love Teyana and Iman.”
Martin Kove, who plays tough man John Kreese in the Netflix series “Cobra Kai,” spends plenty of time in metro Atlanta while shooting that popular series based on “The Karate Kid” films.
WWE’s Mike “The Miz” Mizanin lived for a time in McDonough as a wrestler in the mid-2000s. “The Bachelor’s” Matt James is dating Cumming’s Rachel Kirkconnell.
The rest of the cast is ‘The Talk” co-host Amanda Kloots, “Beverly Hills 90210″ star Brian Austin Green, “Bling Empire’s” Christine Chiu, Peleton instructor Cody Rigsby, country star Jimmie Allen, YouTube superstar JoJo Siwa, Spice Girls’ Melanie C., “The Office’s” Melora Hardin, social media influencer Olivia Jade (whose mom Lori Loughlin went to prison over the college admissions scandal) and Olympic gymnast Suni Lee.
