If Tori Spelling and hubby Dean McDermott's reality show isn't enough for ya, we've got some good news.

I'm told McDermott is in talks to compete on the next season of Dancing With the Stars. "He wants to do it," a source tells me. "He'd be really good at it, too."

As far as we can tell, McDermott doesn't have any dance experience in his background. Contestants are expected to start training any day now for the ninth season, which premieres on ABC Sept. 21.

The new crop of dancer wannabes will officially be announced Aug. 17 on Good Morning America.

Are DWTS producers hoping for another husband vs. wife matchup like last season's competition between Jewel and her bull rider hubby, Ty Murray? I'm told they've been after Spelling since the show launched in 2006.

A rep for the show declined to comment.

Did someone say Dancing With the Stars? Sounds like the perfect time to take another look at our fave former contestant Gilles Marini wearing close to nothing.
