Tiger King's Carole Baskin has been confirmed as a contestant on the new season of Dancing With The Stars.
The 59-year-old shot to fame earlier this year following the release of the Netflix documentary and had also been courted for I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! in the UK.
Also in the DWTS lineup are the rapper Nelly, Backstreet Boys' AJ McLean, Selling Sunset star Chrishell Stause, Catfish host Nev Schulman and Ellen DeGeneres's actress ex Anne Heche.
The new season will be the first with Tyra Banks as host following ABC's decision to axe Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews earlier this year.
