Dancing with the Stars Rumors or Reality?

I've been hearing on and off that two of the scheduled stars...Jewel and Nancy O'Dell... have withdrawn from the competition due to injury to be replaced by Melissa from the Bachelor and Holly Madison of Girls Next Door fame. Here's a link posted today: http://tvwatch.people.com/2009/03/08/source-bachelors-melissa-rycroft-to-join-dancing-with-the-stars/

Personally, when I think of a "star" in the entertainment business, I think of someone who has acting or singing...or some sort of real credentials. Simply appearing on a reality TV series, IMHO, does not make someone a star! Come on...Melissa from the Bachelor is a star???

And Holly Madison, who's claim to fame is sharing her grandfather/boyfriend with two other young women and posing in Playboy...a star?

I think that is stretching things quite a bit!!

I guess we'll learn if these are just rumors or true tomorrow night.
