Uh oh! There’s a new cast for Dancing With the Stars. Time to play the C-List Celebrity Realty Show Red Herring Game.
You’ve got to pick the right cast member of the following groups of three. I’ll just tell you now that Marlee Matlin is going to be on it. Because if I put up a category of “The Deaf Actor,” I don’t think anyone would know any of the other ones.
Ready, go!
The stage thespian: Marissa Jaret Winokur, Jennifer Ehle, Beth Leavel
The radio host: Adam Carolla, Howard Stern, Rush Limbaugh
The pretty girl: Carmen Electra, Shannon Elizabeth, Jenny McCarthy
The Latin actor you’ve never heard of: Juan Soler, Cristian de la Fuente, Poncho de Ando
The Veronica Mars guest star: Patty Hearst, Steve Guttenberg, Lucy Lawless
The magician: David Copperfield, David Blaine, Penn Jillette
The singer: Mario, Bow Wow, Nelly
The Presley: Priscilla Presley, Lisa Marie Presley, Jamie Pressley
The tennis star: Steffi Graf, Monica Seles, Chris Evert
The football player: Jason Taylor, David Martin, Joey Porter

The answers, via USA Today, are here.
Dan, when you have to make up the other two football players’ names, it’s really easy. Also, the participation of Kristi Yamaguchi has now definitively killed off my childhood ambition to be her when I grew up.
I’ll have you know that the other people are fellow Miami Dolphins players. How should I know what caliber football player Jason Taylor is, much less the names of two other similar-tier players?
kristi yamaguchi, how could you? this hurts more than a triple toe-loop through the heart.
Well, if he plays for the 1-15 Dolphins, probably not great. But well done with choosing actual football players. I recant my criticism.
With a Bafta and two Tonys, don’t think Jennifer Ehle is ever going to be desperate. Easy to guess that one!
Priscilla Presley will pull a muscle trying to dance, and she won’t be able to make any facial expressions in any brief interview breaks…so sad.
