America's favorite dance competition show, 'Dancing with the Stars' released their 18th season cast line up in the first quarter of 2014. Now, only a few months later, fans are spreading rumors about who will star in the next season of the show, Season 19.

Maksim Chmerkovskiy, one of the show's regulars, is rumored to be retained on the series' forthcoming 19th season. However, reports claim that Chmerkovskiy might return this time as a judge, instead of his regular role as a professional dancer on the show.

In a Life & Style article recently published, sources claim that Chmerkovskiy has expressed interest in moving up as a judge, and that the professional dancer seemed to be driven to achieve this new goal. In an interview with the same magazine, Chmerkovskiy was once quoted as saying that he was discussing his future on 'Dancing With The Stars' with one of the show's judges, Len Goodman, and that he has nothing left for the show after its 18th season.

In addition to this, rumor mills have named 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' star Kandi Buruss as one of the celebrities tapped by ABC to join the show's 19th season.

Another rumor circling about the media is that 'Bachelorette' Season 10's Andi Dorfman and partner Josh Murray are set to join the 'Dancing With The Stars' Season 19 cast. According to reports, the 'Bachelorette' stars have already been asked to compete in the widely popular dance series, even before their own competition show has revealed its winner.

In addition to Buruss, Dorfman and Murray, reports from HollywoodLife last month have also revealed that the ABC show already expressed interest in casting US soccer player Landon Donovan onto the show.

As it stands, no cast members have been confirmed for Season 19 of 'Dancing with the Stars'.
