NEW YORK (AP) - Former "Dancing With the Stars" winner Brooke Burke will be Tom Bergeron's new partner when the series starts again later month.

She has more than 1.7 million followers on Twitter.

Contestants this season include former "Baywatch" babe Pamela Anderson, reality star Kate Gosselin, astronaut Buzz Aldrin and Olympics figure skating gold medalist Evan Lysacek.
