A rep for Queen Latifah says forget what you heard about the hip-hop royal competing on the next season of “Dancing With The Stars” — it isn’t happening. Reports about Latifah’s involvement in the ABC celebrity ballroom dance-off first surfaced late last week and quickly circulated around the Internet.
An insider also tells “Us Weekly” there were “never any talks” between the actress and “Dancing’s” producers, although she reportedly “likes the show.” Queen Latifah’s name was lumped in together with “Jersey Shore” star Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, actress Tiffani Thiessen and reality TV star Rob Kardashian as unofficially announced contestants for the 13th season of “Dancing.” ABC will officially unveil the show’s new cast in a few weeks on August 29th during an episode of “Bachelor Pad.” The new season will premiere on September 19th.
