A Duke of Hazzard, a blind skier and a Chicago grocer will be among the famous names competing for the mirrorball trophy next season on “Dancing With the Stars.”
The lineup, announced today on “Good Morning America,” includes “Grocery Store Joe” Amabile, the Chicagoan moving on to another ABC show after stints on “The Bachelorette” and “Bachelor in Paradise.” He’s paired with pro Jenna Johnson.
