DANCING with the Stars host Julianne Hough has possibly dropped a hint as to who could be cast in the upcoming season.
The dancer, who hosted Season 32 of the competition series with Alfonso Ribeiro , revealed who she would like to see as a contestant this year.

Season 33 of the ABC and Disney + series is set to premiere on Tuesday, September 17.
“I don’t know if there are rumblings about this, but I think internally, everybody’s talking about one of the Kelce brothers would be amazing?” she said.
“I mean Jason’s like, not playing, right? Did I just drop something?” the host hinted.
Julianne then confirmed that she’s “the same as everybody else” and doesn’t know who will be cast on the show until the cast is revealed to the public.
“He wants to show his dancing skills,” the insider told The U.S. Sun, who said his decision would be made in the upcoming weeks.
The full line-up for the reality series is expected to be confirmed by the end of August.
Jason, 36, has risen in popularity recently alongside his brother Travis, 34, who just won another Super Bowl with the Kansas City Chiefs in February.
Travis has also made headlines for his romance with Taylor Swift , 34, over the past year.
The brothers also have their own podcast, New Heights , where they have featured a slew of celebrity guests.
RUMORED CONTESTANTS
As DWTS tends to feature a wide range of famous contestants from sports and entertainment, fans have begun to guess who could appear on their TV screens next month.
Last week, some believed they spotted a “clue” on Instagram that rugby union player Ilona Maher , 28, could soon trading the field for the dance floor.

The last 10 winners of Dancing with the Stars, and their partners, are:
Season 22: Nyle DiMarco and Peta Murgatroyd Season 23: Laurie Hernandez and Val Chmerkovskiy Season 24: Rashad Jennings and Emma Slater Season 25: Jordan Fisher and Lindsay Arnold Season 26: Adam Rippon and Jenna Johnson Season 27: Bobby Bones and Sharna Burgess Season 28: Hannah Brown and Alan Bersten Season 29: Kaitlyn Bristowe and Artem Chigvintsev Season 30: Iman Shumpert and Daniella Karagach Season 31: Charli D’Amelio and Mark Ballas Season 32: Xochitl Gomez and Val Chmerkovskiy
This year’s Paris Summer Olympics featured the world’s best athletes, including Ilona, who won the bronze medal.
It would be no surprise for DWTS to feature at least one Olympian in their upcoming season, as many have started to make a name for themselves outside of the sports world.
Ilona also reportedly followed the DWTS Instagram account just days after competing in Paris.
While fans were excited about the possible casting, many other names have been thrown into the mix for Season 33.
