ABC/ADAM LARKEYBrooke Burke, Melissa Rycroft and Vanessa Minnillo may be the leading ladies in the running to replace Samantha Harris on Dancing With the Stars, but has anyone thought of Kelly Osbourne?
"I think Kelly would be good because she's amazing," Melissa Joan Hart beamed to us at the Get Lucky for Lupus charity poker tournament at L.A.'s Andaz hotel. "She's got a great personality, she's so genuine, she's so real, she's so heartfelt. She loves to be on the show, and everyone loves seeing her on the show. She'd be perfect."
We couldn't agree more, but some DWTS-ers are echoing what former contestant Shannon Elizabeth told us the other day...
"I would put my money on Brooke Burke," said Joanna Krupa, who competed last season. "She's a great host, she's the girl next door and people can relate to her. I think she'd be fantastic."
Cheryl Burke agreed that the show's Season 7 champ would be the right fit for the gig. "Anyone who's good at hosting and has been on the show and experienced what all celebrity contestants have experienced would be great," she told us across town at the Music Saves Lives Monster Energy Drink Kickoff Party at nightclub HWood.
"Brooke Burke is gorgeous," said pro dancer Lacey Schwimmer, who recently announced she would be part of season 10. "I'm sure it's going to be exciting to have a little bit of new blood in there."
