ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars” wants to take a turn around the dance floor with former White House spokesman Sean Spicer, Politico reported Wednesday evening.
The New York Post first reported, citing an unnamed “TV insider,” that the ABC show reached out to Spicer — an idea the source said “has legs.”
Politico confirmed, citing two unnamed sources, that the dance competition show “expressed interest” in Spicer, who resigned from his White House job last week.
Spicer spent the afternoon in New York meeting with Fox News, CBS, NBC News and ABC’s news division, according to the report, which cited multiple unnamed sources.

Another member of President Donald Trump’s administration, Energy Secretary Rick Perry, appeared on “Dancing With the Stars” in September 2016 and joined Trump’s cabinet only a few months later.
Trump’s former spokesman and the network both kept mum on Wednesday about their prospects for a pas de deux.
“We don’t comment on casting,” an ABC News representative told the New York Post.
Spicer told the New York Post, “I have no comment.”
Oh please, do it and put Spicey out of his misery.
Maybe a trip to Tibet for an in-depth purification ritual might be more appropriate. But, if he agrees to perform on DWTS using Melissa McCarthy’s motorized podium, I’m all in.
This is all well and good, but why is TPM ignoring that the GOP is having Browder testify to things of which it is, at best, questionable he has actual and direct personal knowledge, in order to gin up their counter-narrative that it all goes back to Clinton and Obama and that the whole Russia thing was in fact a big set-up to trap Trump and that Clinton and her campaign and the DNC were the ones who were really colluding with Russia through Fusion GPS and this Russian lawyer lady? What’s the angle? Has Putin offered to drop prosecuting him? To let him have his Gazprom money? What? That would be a far more interesting thing to educate us on than what Brokefact Fountain’s latest inane escapades might be.
Why not?
They had the criminal Tom “Cockroach Killer” DeLay on before.
Not exactly new ground they are breaking here.
And who can forget Rick Perry’s turn twirling 'neath the lights?
