Spicer said that he hoped the show would give people “another opportunity to see a side of me that is different.”

From Sean Spicer to Lamar Odom to Hannah Brown of “The Bachelorette,” this year’s “Dancing With the Stars” cast is ripped from the headlines.Advertisement

Given his comments to CNN, Spicer, who had been rumored to join the cast since his 2017 White House departure, also seemed fairly certain that he would win over Bergeron and hoped for unity rather than division. “I firmly believe when the season is over, he’s probably going to realize bringing a diverse group of people together, who can interact in a fun, civil and respectful way, is actually a way we can move the country forward in a positive way,” Spicer said. “And it will make this show an example of how Americans can disagree about politics and tune into good entertainment shows and keep their politics at bay.

The new season of the show also features NBA champ Lamar Odom, actor James Van Der Beek, supermodel Christie Brinkley, the Supremes’ Mary Wilson and “Queer Eye” star Karamo Brown. Brown was among those who

Nnnnnnnope

He is despicable. How could they?!

The man lied to Americans 'daily'. it's not about politics at all! He's a corrupt crook with no ethics. How would he be 'fun' or entertaining? He's part of all that's wrong in the world. He didn't suddenly become an honest man. He's just as greedy & dishonest as before!

Shorter Spicey: “I lied to the nation on a regular basis — and got paid for it. That’s over now — so watch my slick dance moves.”

Not so sure about all this positivity.

No. seanspicer has done damage to America by lying for Trump. This is a PR move for redemption he doesn't deserve & ABCNetwork DancingABC are accomplices. There are victims to what he's done. So no. BoycottDWTS BoycottDWTS BoycottDWTS BoycottDWTS BoycottDWTS

Relax haters it’s just dancing hush up already cray cray

No.

Dancing with Nazis

Yet he still works for a trump PAC......... hmmm

exactamente.

Nope.

Nobody is talking about Judge presiding on Black Panther copyright case, holding AT&T financial stock interest, completely disqualified. 28 U.S.C. Section 455 a, b1, b4.

Dancing with the podium.......................

Low rating just like Donnie

Or we can see him make a fool of himself again.

This is a back door way by ABC to get polling from views that vote on the contestants. They hoping he is voted off after the 1st show, so they can say see Americans don’t like GOP, that’s all this is. Who’s watching this show , low IQ era.

The Liberal/Socialist Fake News media going bonkers over former press secretary Sean Spicer appearing on 'Dancing with the Stars.' Get a grip! It is just a damn TV show. Liberals/Socialists politicize everything. Take a breath and enjoy the show if 'DWTS' is your cup of tea.

No thanks.

Go ahead Libs, boycott this one too, you’re running out of things to boycott.

Do not watch this show !

Still spewing his LIES!

Don’t expect many people to tune in, idiots

He lying again

I am not a fan of Spicer, but c'mon, it's a TV show. Relax as he'll most likely get voted off first.

Nope. In normal times, sure, but not now. He gets no pass, and he gets no help in normalizing his actions or rehabilitating his image. Nope.

The ignorance this has is beyond me. It's not about politics fuck ass. It's about American lives that are being destroyed everyday due to this president and administration that you backed and supported while you went on that podium everyday and lied to everyone's faces. Wow!

Yeah, right. It's a quick way for that dimwit to earn some moolah.

Nope I wont watch. He didnt have to tell all those lies. He chose to do so. That makes him a liar and sorry human being. He needs to crawl back under his rock. Nobody wants to see him.

Imagine, how entertaining, it would be, if he, & his dance partner, were completely naked, above their shoes. He, would be flopping away, unerotically.

Not watching the show until Spicer is out!

Remember how everyone put aside grudges while Benedict Arnold did his season of Naked and Afraid?

No one wants watch that creep or will

It's not 'disagreeing about politics.' This administration is an abomination. The end.

Lying to the public isn't disagreeing in politics. It's lying to the public.

Who cares? Maybe cover those forrest fires in Brazil instead?

TuneoutDancingwiththeStars TuneoutDWTS

Dancing With The ‘Stars’ reeeeeeealllllllly scraping the bottom of the barrel with this polarizing assclown.

Americans disagree, sure thats fine. But Spicer lied to the American People for his boss.

except the only reason he got the gig is because of politics

When I think of entertainment, I don’t think of Sean Spicer.

We don’t “disagree about politics.” You violated your oath. “I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same” seanspicer .

NO!

It will be produced by the Ingsoc Dept of Culture. And you will enjoy it.

Go away please.

Oh, is seanspicer famous for some other reason besides his politics? The lying? Perhaps he considers that a separate skill/employment? 'Keep politics at bay' works when it isn't professional liars expecting us to find them 'entertaining.' cc: TelevisionAcad StephenAtHome

Nope. It wasn't just politics. It was lying to the American people day after day after day.

We Americans love Sean 👍

Please ABC, hire Melissa McCarthy, dressed in Sean Spicer drag, for one night only on DWTS!

Nobody who enabled this disasterous presidency gets a pass without serious and sincere repentance

Nope.

Lying racist wants people to forget his support for white supremacists rapists child abusers seanspicer

🤮 I will pass 🤦🏻‍♀️

is that spin for “short on cash and losing name recognition”

Nope

Americans will agree on one thing: he’s horrible. That’s how it will unite Americans.

Yeah, for me it’s an example of how you can lie and disrespect the American people and there are Zero consequences. Thanks abc and disney for having very low standards. BoycottDWTS

Nope!

seanspicer lied to the American public on a daily basis. He is a complete disgrace and DWTS should NOT give him the opportunity to rehabilitate his image.

Gross

Nope.

Count me out!

Hahaha. NO

It was a disagreement it was the constant lying seanspicer

That guy *is* directly from recent Politics - there is no way to separate him from it! It would be different if he was a celebrity with differing opinions...Sorry, hard pass until he’s off the show.

No ABC, just no.

seanspicer lied to the American public on a daily basis. He is a complete disgrace and DWTS should NOT give him the opportunity to rehabilitate his image.

BoycottStupid

Yet another lie ...

If he dances as well as he lies he should do ok JustSaying

So what he's saying is this is a great opportunity to remember that he enthusiastically and knowingly lied to the American people on a daily basis.

Not entertaining if he's on the show. Not watching.

DancingABC needs to send seanspicer home. If not, I won’t be watching until spicer is voted off!

The Kato Katelin of the Trump administration should just disappear now...

'Claims.' You people are the worst.

BoycottDWTS

Good entertainment as the opium of the masses ... The opioid epidemic in the USA so long blamed on Chinese exports of fentanyl was actually created by the entertainment industry! 😉

NOPE! NOPE! NOPE!

All of us to Sean Spicer

Loving the LA Times attempting to sugar coat shit... That’s show biz!

Spicer walks away or it’s BoycottDWTS.

The former press secretary is delusional. Maybe in normal times but these aren't normal times.

Umm no

it’s going to be two things, actually: 100% not that total garbage

No! Never!

If that’s true let his performance be open to the public.

Naw

No

Walking Dead. They never go away

Nope. Trash take. There must be consequences for lying for a fascist government.

I love that show. But hard pass on that until he gets kicked off

Yeah that’s show biz..... shit

WHATEVER. Thanks to the La Times freeing up space to provide this useless info on this worthless turd. I DON'T CARE.

Poor misunderstood spicy.

I don't buy that. Spicer has a right to be on TV. If the advertisers want to face the backlash and tarnishing of their brands that's up to them. He lied from the WH to protect Trump and not the country.

Who wants to see his ass ?

It will be fun to see seanspicer and everyone who has been associated with this racist, xenophobic and treasonous regime rot in hell. RobertIger ABCNetwork realDonaldTrump DancingABC

No one cares about you rehabilitating your willful destruction of character. You made choices, live with them. You were a precursor to even worse but you stood there and lied every time you spoke. Recall that the lowest level of hell is reserved for traitors, thieves & liars

I really don’t want to see the other lying face.

Lmao 🤣 what a time to be alive.

I’ll pass.

I’m not interested in seeing the other side of Spicer. Two-faced people are all the same. He lied to this nation over and over again. Next

He doesn't deserve anything

Vomit inducing

Seriously? Sean Spicer? Flippin joke!

Sean, we’ve all seen as many sides to you as we can possibly stomach. You sold your soul to the devil, now you live with the consequences.

Dancing With Stars is the new battleground of the dipshits on the Left.

BoycottDWTS

Why would anyone want to see another side of him? The one we saw when he was press secretary was more than enough. GoAwaySeanSpicer

We’ve seen the only side that matters, seanspicer.

The non propagandist side. The one that doesn’t lie to his country for his authoritarian god. The one that didn’t write a dick-sucky book about dear leader. seanspicer

He showed his true colors we've seen all we need to see. Will not watch DancingABC with seanspicer

The non-douchebag side?! Count me in!

I don’t care to see any sides of Mr. Spicy.

The “slightly less dark side”

There will never be another side of you! You will forever be remembered for being a lying fool! Hope it was worth it!

An “item” that’s warped, is warped on both sides.

Isn’t that what some Nazi’s and their supporters said.....

We could care less about your good side, we already saw your bad side & that’s the side that counts. BoycottDWTS

Whatever. Yawn. Not a hot button issue in the big scheme of things. I would have no interest in the show if he wasn’t on it.

So let’s pretend he’s not normally a lying sack he just did it for his job

We’ve already seen his two faces. I won’t watch him on tv ever again

Now all the Lefties will boycott Dancing With the Stars. Maher to DWTS, pretty soon nothing else to boycott, you all will have to move out of Country 🇺🇸👌

thank you, next

We’ve already seen him speak out of both sides of his mouth.

No. It really wouldn't. We have seen enough.

seanspicer get lost

Can you not LA times. What are you, free advertising for criminals?

Then he should come out about his time at the White House.

You mean the non-liar part?

Everyone knows you're an ass..we don't need to see it on the dance floor!

Dance moves don’t lie. So yeah, that will be a different side of you.

seanspicer hahaha

There were Sean Spicers on both sides!!

Nope.

If u can move your feet on the floor as good as u moved your facts on the podium, u will be crowned 😂

Fuck him. Don’t watch DancingABC

A non-lying side seanspicer doesn’t exist.... No thanks

There's nothing else for the to talk about....?

Mask on, mask off.

Sorry Sean but like Tucker you will be first voted off. Unless you can really dance?🕺

He does have an opportunity to redeem himself if he is truthful about his time in the WH and admits he was part of a propaganda machine to spread misinformation and deceive the American public and apologize for his part in the deceit. justMHO

Oh Lord. Let seanspicer have fun too y'all. Come on now. I am not a Trump supporter at all but DETS is supposed to be fun. Did you all love every start on there? I doubt it. Come on now. Chillax y'all. BeTheGood

i like to see trump on DWTS...anywhere else but the WH....

We don't want to see any side of you seanspicer

Nothing will alter the damage you have done.

That will not be happening 😀

You don't have to give this liar any press, ya know. Thanks.

Nope

Omg. These comments are cruel. Everyone has the right to earn an income. I understand the anger out there but the cruelty that is directed towards this blip in time is not worth the words in hatred. No one is putting a howitzer to anyone's head demanding they watch DWTS.

We really don’t need to see you at all. Enough is enough.

Which side of Sean is on the show? The Bunny Suit WH Jester side or the Bunny Suit WH Jester side? He may have done different jobs at the WH, but there's only one side to that fool.

Repulsive but different

Well, we had hopes, too, Spicey, but you helped destroy those pretty handily during your last gig...

Sure sure, let’s just forget how he lied over and over to protect the trash in the White House. Heck, why doesn’t he partner up with Sarah Sanders for the ratings? I’d love to see both break their ankles.

Well, we did see a 'different' side of Rick Perry lol. Hint--we don't want to see *any* side of you.

how so? you were always dancing around the truth

They should rename the show “Dancing with the stars and One Notorious Propagandist”

There's more than one side to a two-faced liar. Everyone knows that! barf

Noooooooooooo.

Two-faced

Break a Leg, Sean.

Nope...still see him as a big fat liar.

I’ll bet that’s a lie, too.

Should lose weight on the show which he needs, tho doubt it will provide him needed lobotomy

No thanks

No

An even douchier side.

We’ve seen enough of you, Spicer, and what and who you enabled. This shameful attempt to launder your disgusting behavior is an acknowledgement that people like you know our guilty-pleasure-based popular culture gives creeps like you a hair-tousling opportunity to be humanized.

His ass when he falls?

On the plus side, it will provide material to Melissa McCarthy for an SNL skit.

Nothing says, reinvent your political career, like DWTS.

Too bad Dancing With The Stars wasn’t around in 1945 to help redeem Himmler, Göring, and Goebbels.

Ummm, here’s the only “other side” of Spicey I can tolerate.

Go away. Who cares.

Fvck you

So, he wil be wearing two different tap shoes dancing from behind some bushes?

He's still a liar

We’ve seen the only side of you that matters. You lied to us - the American people - this citizen thinks you should be in jail not out and about having a good time.

Being part of a regime that is currently attempting to turn a democracy into a dictatorship is not 'entertainment'. He should be banished for treason.

Ya but the lying, treasonous, sycophant side is still there. So 🤷🏻‍♀️ BoycottDWTS

It also may be the end of the show. BoycottDWTS

Like Josef Goebbels joining DWTS....doesn't quite matter, HARD PASS on watching.

I saw him on foxandfriends this morning. To be honest, I preferred the comic relief version we got when he was press secretary.

So is capitalist 'Democracy' you smu Kulak.

this is bullying and needs to stop

Sean Spicer can go straight to hell.
