Summary
ABC on June 17 added Guillermo Rodriguez to “Dancing with the Stars” Season 35, with Jimmy Kimmel announcing the booking on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” before Rodriguez ran onstage in salsa attire.
Rodriguez becomes the fourth confirmed celebrity for the new season, joining Ciara Miller, Maura Higgins and Savannah Bananas player Jackson Olson ahead of the full cast reveal on Sept. 2 on “Good Morning America.”
Season 35 extends Rodriguez’s long ABC profile: he has been a “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” fixture since 2003, evolving from parking-lot security guard into an on-air correspondent and comedy regular.
The franchise is coming off a November Season 34 win by Robert Irwin and Witney Carson, while spinoff “Dancing with the Stars: The Next Pro” is set to premiere July 13.
