This Season of Dancing with the Stars will feature fancy footwork from three over 50 cast members. These three contestants range in age from 62 – 71. The youngest of the over 50 crowd is R & B Diva, Chaka Khan.
Chaka Khan
Ms. Khan is known for her soulful sound, beautiful red hair and influences on generations of artists. She is a singer, songwriter, producer, activist, actress, and mother to name a few of her titles. Chaka, the ten-time Grammy Award winner is no stranger to music and dance some call her the Queen of Funk, so we look forward to seeing her fearless moves this season.
Paula Deen
Paula Deen age 68 is next up in the over 50 crowd. Ms. Deen is an American celebrity and chef. She is a cooking show television host and owns and operates a restaurant in Savannah Ga with her sons. Ms. Deen has an inspirational story of courage and being an overcomer. Although, she received some bad press recently about allegation of racism, she still has a large following of fans. Ms. Deen at age 68 is expected to be an inspiration to the over 50 crowd, especially women. We can’t wait to see what Paula Deen is cooking up for the dance floor.
Gary Busey
Rounding out the over 50 trio is Gary Busey. Mr. Busey, age 71 is an American actor with a career that spans almost 50 years. He has enjoyed major success in movies such as The Buddy Holly Story, Lethal Weapon(1987) and The Firm (1993). He is also a comedian and was a cast member on Celebrity Apprentice.
