ABC has announced the full lineup of celebrities for Dancing with the Stars' 19th season, as well as their pro partners for the duration of the season.

'Dancing with the Stars' Cast

Dancing with the Stars showrunner Rob Wade broke the news Thursday morning, revealing the list of 13 actors and athletes, reality TV stars, a digital celebrity and a fashion designer.

“There still is no shortage of who wants to do this show,” Wade told Entertainment Weekly. “It’s not just about name value or something like that. It’s about the stories you can tell with these casts. We want to be original and different. We want archetypes, not stereotypes, going in.”

Among the cast of celebrities will be actors, including Mean GirlsJonathan Bennet (Aaron Samuels), The Fresh of Bel-Air’s Alfonso Ribeiro (Carlton) and Pretty Little Liars' Janel Parish (Mona). Athletes Lolo Jones (track/bobsled) and Randa Couture (MMA) will also compete alongside Duck Dynasty’s Sadie Robertson and political commentator Tavis Smiley.

Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews will be returning as hosts for the upcoming season, as will judges Carrie Ann Inaba, Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli. Joining them at the judges table will be actress and Dancing with the Stars alum Julianne Hough.

Dancing with the Stars will premiere its 19th season on ABC Monday, Sept. 15 at 8/7c. The first elimination will take place Tuesday, Sept. 16.
