Dancing With The Stars: 10 Singers Who Would Be Perfect For The Show
From athletes to actors, Dancing With The Stars never fails to entertain audiences. Every year, the reality show always welcomes celebrities with various backgrounds and talents. However, only a few people manage to impress the judges as anything can happen on the night of the final dance...
Since the show's title has the word "star" in it, many who watch the show can't help but wonder what it would be like if their favorite celebrities were to dance the night away onscreen. Talented singers, such as Marie Osmond have appeared on the show, so it would be great to see if more stars with wickedly powerful vocal pipes could showcase their dancing talents.
10 Miley Cyrus
While her Hannah Montana days are long over, loyal fans can't help but remember the choreography she had to learn from a very young age. Even now, Cyrus isn't afraid to show off some spontaneous dance moves while she belts out any tune onstage.
While Cyrus is one of the most talented singers in Hollywood, her dance skills shouldn't be underestimated. Early 2000s fans of her former alternate persona recall how much hard work she would have to put into during rehearsals as Hannah. Cyrus could be a top contestant on Dancing With The Stars with her acquired stage skills.
9 Lady Gaga
Not only is Lady Gaga a multi-talented singer, but she has also accrued critical fame for her acting skills, including American Horror Story and A Star Is Born. This is exactly why she should star on the hit reality show. She has proven to be such a daring, confident personality.
Lady Gaga has proven that she can dance in some of the zaniest and sometimes most dangerous costumes and shoes. The choreography for her concerts consists of different dance styles, but most involve a heavy amount of athleticism. There is no question that this vocalist could train with one of the cast's professional dancers and possibly samba her way into the finale.
8 Camila Cabello
This insanely talented singer, and performer in general, should most definitely show off her dancing skills. Viewers will never forget Camila's televised performances, especially at awards shows when it's time to show off those dance moves that look like she has had them all her life.
Camila not only makes singing look easy but she also gracefully executes each dance performance too. Her music videos consist of some of the most advanced dances. Even some of the videos of her rehearsals reveal Camila tirelessly learning individual and paired dance routines, such as in her video for "My Oh My." It would be fitting for this brilliant performer to put the microphone down for a bit and wear her dancing shoes.
7 Shawn Mendes
Shawn shouldn't be overlooked for his potential as a dancer for this show. Fans only know him as a calm and cool singer. Whenever he performs on a stage, Shawn is seen mostly standing still, playing the guitar or just singing. However, his attention to detail within his performances conveys that he can certainly follow choreographic training if he were cast on DWTS.
Shawn's presence in the collaborative music video with Camila Cabello showcased his skills. Shawn clearly seemed like he wasn't as adept as Camila in rehearsals, but he obviously caught on with learning the dance as quickly as possible. This goes to show how dedicated Shawn is as a performer, and should therefore be given a chance if cast on the reality show.
6 Selena Gomez
Selena's dancing abilities have shined throughout her onstage vocal performances. It wouldn't be too much of a surprise to see her excel in dancing. Her evolution of onstage performances proves that she is capable of learning new things, in addition to her ingrained confidence in performing live.
Gomez's new material is emblematic of her growth as a pop star but also as a person, and DWTS includes having enough confidence in oneself to improve at a skill. Dancing isn't the only thing the show teaches its famous contestants. Selena would thrive on this show if she were to guest star,
5 Demi Lovato
Aside from Lovato's recent music video and onstage performances, she has spoken about her personal growth which is precisely what DWTS involves when learning how to be a genuinely skilled dancer. Her music video "Me, Myself, & I" is a perfect example of what she can do as a dancer.
Her physical abilities span far and wide as she also participates in a spectrum of athletics. This would put her at a strong advantage as a potential dancer.
4 Harry Styles
Harry Styles has the backbone needed to excel on this show. Not only did his One Direction days expose him to choreographed live performances, but his solo career also has matured him in ways that a dancer would need on DWTS. Working with one of the professional dancers on the show involves a lot of sweat, and possibly even some blood and tears, as has been seen throughout past seasons.
That's why Styles would be able to compete and learn how to genuinely dance the waltz with his calm and collected demeanor as a performing artist.
3 Dua Lipa
The one and only Dua Lipa could knock competitors off the stage if she were to compete as a dancer. Winning the award at the 2019 Grammys for both Best New Artist and Best Dance Recording, Dua Lipa doesn't need much of an introduction into how skilled of a dancer she has come to be as a performing artist.
She may be underrated as a dancer since she's clearly known for being a vocalist, but nevertheless, Dua Lipa's tenacious, fearless personality would guide her in training sessions with one of the professional dancers in the cast.
2 Cardi B
No one should ever underestimate Cardi B, who most definitely can compete like there's no tomorrow on DWTS. Her experience on stage in many different types of performing would contribute to her comfort in learning different dances on the show. Her familiarity with choreography, but also spontaneous dancing, would strengthen her position as a contestant.
Her tough and outgoing personality would illuminate in any dance routine she learns. Working with a professional wouldn't come as a surprise to her as her career as a professional rapper includes dancing that has quicker and sharper movements. This experience adds to how she would bring some change to the show, but also learn a lot when finishing the show.
1 Lizzo
Lizzo's vocal career doesn't stop with vocals. She is a skilled flutist. Playing the flute in modern rap and pop songs is rare, but it's one of the most unique traits about her as a performer.
Dancing wouldn't be too much of a new challenge to her because of the self-confidence and ambition she's gained over the years of her music career. Her sassy and fun personality would add a different atmosphere to the classical dances that DWTS teaches its famous participants.
