According to new reports, R&B star Brandy is apparently set to compete in the latest season of Dancing With The Stars.
Full story below…
Perez Hilton writes that the 31 year old Grammy winner will feature on this year’s incarnation of the hit ABC series, along with Audrina Patridge from ‘The Hills’.
——————————————————-
For Brandy’s sake, this needs to be a rumour and rumour alone. She just about came out unscathed from her VH1 reality show with Ray J, yet – if this is true – Dancing With The Stars may be the final nail in the coffin for her relevancy.
A ratings-winner maybe, but one cannot side-step the fact that next-to-all who compete on the show are D-list at best, with the series doing nothing for the careers of those who weren’t (see: Nicole Scherzinger, Toni Braxton).
What’s more, beyond cheapening her ‘brand’, all prior evidence pointed to Ms. Norwood focussing on her music career (which, despite her immense talent, is but a few beeps away from flat-lining – let’s keep it all the way real). How a stint on such a show would benefit that is beyond me. Surely if she wanted to dance so much, she should just schedule an appointment with a choreographer, no?
Not the business…

I think its a good idea i love her.
I have to agree, I love Brandy, but this is NOT a good look, at all.
Her fans (including myself) can try to rationalize all we want….but at the end of the day its just tacky all the way around.
Brandy needs to focus on getting in the studio and producing a magical record that will blow everyone away and silence her critics.
Not going from reality show to reality show.
I hope the best for Brandy, but with the way things are looking, I just dont see it for her.
I am sure the Monica stans are somewhere throwing a victory party.
She’s just trying to keep her name out there. Stop hating
At this point in her career NO GIG IS TOO SMALL. If she has to do a reality show, be a judge, be on Dancing With The Stars So be it. She irrelevant, her career is flopping & She really needs the $$$ you know. I expect J.lo, Cerror, & Xtina them on there next season. 🙂
BTW she looks good, too bad her eyes are 2 FT apart… *Shrugs*
uh oh.
coooool!
Who caresss! The show has a massive audience and they do have A-list music acts who perform as special guests. That’s how you sell records. Ask Clive Davis who says “you need to get ur name on high profile shows to the most audience”. No matter what u think, DWTS has that. Why do you think everyone in the music biz (A-list and has beens alike) have been clamoring to get on Glee? The show is stupid, t*****, and gay but has a massive audience and high ratings. Besides, the avg. fee is $250-$350k for DWTS and after Brandy’s payout when she killed the lady she needs all the $$$ she can get, lol. And, hey… she could get knocked out in the 1st or 2nd round. Not bad change for 2 weeks work! And how did she come out unscathed from that Ray J reality show? It’s been renewed last I heard. If it was so bad, she wouldn’t have signed on again. Get the facts straight.
As for Trent you moron (cuz we know he reads and wants to edit Sam’s articles and readers comments, lol), that’s better than Mariah nets at an avg. loser concert of hers. Better than America’s Got Talent where we saw the likes of Z-listers like moo moo Mariah and what did that do for sales of Memoirs of a flopped angel?? Exactly… nothing except show up half way round the world in Sao Paulo where no one gives a f***. And no, the fat b**** doesnt sound she does 20yrs ago let alone 5. Just sayin.
In in rarity I actually agree with Sam this is not a good look! Brandy needs to focus on her music and stop doing these hideous sideline projects! As much as I love the family business Ray J just brings something stomach turning to it….and let’s face it he cannot sing…anyway please tell me this is not true…it reels desperation!!!
this B**** dropped a tour here in South Africa to go for that thing, she cant even move, besides walking, still got mad love for her though!!
I love Brandy but I don’t think this is the right move…
this isn’t a good career move for B.
I hope she wises up and get cracking with this new album.
I need a Brandy album in my life.
Dancing with the Stars are for losers. Lil Kim’s people warned her that DWTS would not be a good career move, but Kim did it anyway. And even though Kim was great on the show, and her elimination upset the world, being on the show made the public forget her as a rapper. Kim became irrelevant to the music industry, and Brandy will too.
Brandy doesn’t need this gig. Sonya, please come back and manage your children. They are lost without you.
Brandy is a has been…. she’ll be lucky if her next album doesn’t sell Amerie, LeToya & Kelis numbers. Only her f***** fans think its still 1998 when Moesha was on tv… I mean thats the only reason she was big to begin with. No Moesha, f****** her producer for tracks/ gettin pregnant (the original Mashonda, Nivea & Christina Milian) and too many new girls on the scene meant the end of Brandy. Then all the controversy with her LYING about being a h**, being jealous of Monica and killing innocent people. Well damn…only Monica has weathered the storm. When the last time Brandy had a #1 hit on the Hot 100 or hell the R&B charts? When the last time Brandy was actually relevant in music? Don’t worry, I’ll wait. *crickets* Poor her and that receding hairline.
She has just been offered Dancing With The Stars but it is up to her to pursue it.
I don’t like it. I didn’t mind Brandy’s reality show, but this would be a little desperate. DWTS, showcase alot of has beens. Most of the guest are no longer in their prime. I think Brandy should be careful with this one. I don’t want that look for her. I think this is her big chance to get a warm welcome and make a great comeback album(like only she can). I think music should be her only focus right now!
Sure!!! Why not?? She ain’t no stranger to dancing so I’m sure she will do great!! If you haven’t already check out her HUMAN album!!!! THE DEFENITION is the best song on the CD imo!!! 🙂
Is she that desparate???? no brady go make music and release an album
you will see, its going to be a HIT. every body LOVES you!!!
Whoever typed this ish up needs to stfu. I don’t see anything wrong with her appearing on Dancing with the Stars. Get that PROMO Brandy!
Watch this will be the final nail in the coffin…the haters are going to eat her alive..first of all i aint never seen brandy move good enough to make her a decent dancer, second she just not a s*** dancer and thats what theey look for in DWTS………THIS WILL MAKE BRANDY A LAUGHING STOCK(WATCH)………………………..
I think this would be great!!! More publicity for her! & of course u know Ms. Kelly Rowland will be in the audience cheering her on! I think it’s a great idea!!!
Go head girl, let the haters hate they will be tuning in!!!
Ans how is this a nail in the coffin? LOL this is Dancing, has nothing to do with her Music or Acting careers…. The publicity for this show is huge and she is already making headlines and has been for the past years so Let’s not act like this is all BAD NEWS> what didnt work for those other so Called D list celebs has nothing to do with Brandy. People are actually waiting for her music, No one was waiting on Lil kim, Mya or Toni Braxton like that, Brandy has her own hit show on Vh1 so her situation is not the same as those other people.
Brandy is no stranger to TV let’s remember that, Most people will remember her from her Acting more so then her singing and to me that is Great because it allows people to see another side of Brandy other then in the studio making Great albums.
BTW – Brandy will always have a career she is one of few artist who can Sing, Act, write,produce and even rap.. so her talents alone will continue to make her money, flop or not.
I thnink this is smart. Even tho Monica’s music Carreer is back. I Still Think Brandy is More Famous In Mainstream America. Cause Brandy gets posted On Perez hilton and Tmz and Black blog. Monica Doesnt. Im waiting for Brandy’s album. So if the music Right. DWTS WILL GET HER NAME OUT THERE. Plus people are waiting on her music. Not like Mya toni braxton etc….. I hope she does it. But if she does She better win or come in 2nd
i think its the only way WHITE people will know her again and she needs that , but her album has to drop right after the season or she will be forgotten
The moment she focuses her attention on anything but her music marks a seriously bad decision. Brandy, get your pretty b*** to the studio and get back to work!!
@ Danisha..you taken the words right out of my mouth THANK YOU!!!!!!
To all the luke-warm Brandy fans out there…., we’re all individual and make our money and fame in various way hence someone appearing on DWTS drew a bad luck to them doesn’t neccessarily means it will happen to Brandy as well.
Her recent album may not have done well as expected yet Brandy is a world wide smash which everyone is always checking out for her no matter what hence I suggest you lot support her in anyting she does especially for entertainment as in an attempt to showcase herself once again.
About the coming out with an album bit shouldn’t be an issues. A little clue for you lot is to follow her on twitter hence you’ll manage to find out whether she’s just lazing about in the house or acutally working her b*** off in the studio for a monstor hit album.
Flop or not her talent can never be taken away from her which in otherwords means Brandy will always be in the industry no matter what the HATERS chucks on her hence brace yourselves cuz there’s a surprice in store for you (beyond hopeful fans out there)!
Stay mad HATERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!…………………LMBAO!!!!!!!!!!!
Sam, have a little bit faith in your girl…lol!
If it’s true about Cheryl Cole & Audrina being cast, Brandy will f*** around and get her ass lost in a sea of bigger stories like Cheryl (the uk darling an white folks most beautiful girl in the world) & that Hough dancer kids romance. She’s better off kissing Simon’s ass for a place on next years US version of The X Factor, until the accident he loved her enough to put her on AGT and this would be a legit poition on what will undoubtably be the most anticipated and watched show of next year.
DWTS is a big show but it lost it’s luster for me when they started casting professional dancers as contestants.
I agree i think that this is a good way of geting her name out there, and i think shes even said on twitter that she felt more comfortable dancing in her room than anywhere else..
But its good motivational curve for her to to master good choregraphy and dance her ass off on stage..shes just exploring another part of her talent..
Who knows it may even bring a new energy to her new album, tour and her perfomances to come.. And since shes a stage performer and actor thats more than enuff to put her in the top spot.. Im rooting for her already..
CAINT WAIt…
What does Monica have to do with this…its brandy post….brandy name aint ringing bells in mainstream or R&b…if it did her last album 1 1/2 year ago would did better than it did…and FYI JUST CAUSE TMZ AND OTHER (SO CALLED MAINSTREAM SITES TALK ABOUT U DONT MEAN S***) they all talking bad about brandy…The hell with mainstream..they fickle fairweather fans anyway…rather have a solid R&B fanbase to them ANYDAY!!!!!!!!!!!
TMZ & Perez be clowning Brandy…. I rather have a #1 R&B song and a #1 R&B album thats certified gold on its way to platinum then be made a fool of on some white blogs. LMAO Brandy fans still mad at Monica. It been 12 years, get the f*** over it!! Ashanti snatched Brandy’s wig in 2002 and never gave it back.
I AM SO SICK OF REALITY TV !!!!! BRANDY is sooooooo MUCH BETTER THAN THIS!! she is 1 of the best R&B vocalist-singers out man, I MISS HER SO MUCH & NEED A NEW ALBUM!!! NOT dancing with stars, I mean Nicole won-that bit*h is a dancer, HOW THE HELL A DANCER WINS A DANCE SHOW?!?! PLEASE DONT GO BRANDY !!!!
They can clown Brandy all they want they will know who Brandy is before Monica, why? that’s because Brandy is a household name. Id rather Brandy continue to rebuild her career and hit not just the R&B charts but the Hot 100 like she has before, She is WAY more then an R&B type artist, Monica, that’s her lane. For Brandy she is way more commercial, Versatile and appealing to More markets, Who would Ask Brandy to Judge on America’s got Talent ? Who would consider Monica to host the view? and have her guest host two times? Who would consider Monica for Dancing with the stars? Who would consider Monica for Cover girl?
Point is, Brandy is was more marketable and famous then she so that’s why this isn’t a bad look or it shouldn’t even be shocking, that White people can sit and watch Brandy and tell the little white kids, Hey She played Cinderella… Brandy would have been fine with a Reality show and 700,000 + followers on Twitter , released a hot single and reached # top 10 on the R&B charts, but clearly THIS GIRL IS AIMING FOR HIGHER THAN THAT. She is more then just that and has always been. Her Album is way more anticipated then Monica’s she has way more to talk about, and she is getting way more press, blog talk and camera time., I believe with her New album will do way more. Why? Because she is ready. Monica holds no candle when Brandy is on her s***. I know her music, will DELIVER.
Let’s not act like Monica is on Every chart hitting the top 10, or 20…
She easily catapulted her way up them weak R&B charts, clearly it wasn’t that hard to do.
Let me just say, to Compare Brandy’s situation to Monica’s is kind of Ludicrous
Brandy has a lot more Re building then Monica, Let’s face it Brandy has always been the huge world wide Celebrity so when she fell off, she fell hard, Monica never fell off hard or has to appease such a huge market both Music and Acting. Brandy was involved in a tragic car accident, a Fake marriage and a Broken engagement.
She is setting up for a Real comeback., People give this girl so much credit, now she is finally on her s*** like she was back in the day, (All over TV and doing music) and people feel its a bad thing? LOL Every artist is not the same and I love Monica but I need people to see what worked for Monica doesn’t HAVE to work for Brandy.
former-stars who do Dancing with the Stars are usually at the end of their career. They’re unable to land movie roles, and in the case of Brandy, unable to find a record company that would sign her.
When someone is desperate, they tend to do unusual things. This is pretty much the nail in the coffin as far as her career goes. She will never be able to move beyond the land of flops.
OMG, is this real?
Monica is the only one “still standing” among 90s R/B t*** queens. Brandy has pretty much thrown in the towel. At this rate, she will never be able to regain her former prominence. Who would’ve thought that Monica would be the one with the established fan-base, who go out in droves to buy her records. I feel sorry for Brandy.
@S*** STFU THE ONLY REASON XTINA WOULD BE ON SWTS IS TO SING.
@DANISHA
If it’s so easy to top the R/B charts, how come Brandy hasn’t had a top ten R/B song in a LONG time? If Brandy is more widely known than Monica, how come Monica has consistently bested Brandy in the first week sales?
When was the last time Brandy had a significant hit on any chart? I’ll wait.
This has nothing to do with Monica, but it irritates me when Brandy fans talk about Monica as if she’s someone like Mya, with absolutely zero relevance in the music industry.
None of the girls who are selling records at the moment would EVER appear on “Dancing with the stars.” Brandy has become a joke and I feel really sorry for her. I saw a video of her stalking the paparazzi, who does that? What a flop.
Wow…all of this hatred and not a single quote from Brandy or her team…WAY TO GO BRANDY! YOU MUST BE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT! YOU ARE STILL ON THE TONGUE! I am a big Brandy fan but, I ain’t really feeling her on DWTS. The idea does not sit well with me.
Oh and I love Monica also. Regardless of FIRST-WEEK SALES, we all know Brandy has sold more albums than Monica. I love “Still Standing” but, it has lost it’s steam. LOVE ALL OVER ME is a beautiful song but it should not have been the second single. It sends the same message as EVERYTHING TO ME. They shouldve stuck with HERE I AM or MIRROR. In short, the album ain’t going platinum for a long-ass time. Mainly because Mo is not a mainstream artist.
OH! NO SHADE but since THWISE wanted to talk about charts.
Everything To Me was a #1R&B smash but only peaked at 44 on the Top 100 while Right Here (Departed) peaked at 34 and made it to #1 on the Dance Charts along with Long Distance.
Right Here also charted internationally. I think that is pretty significant. Don’t count Brandy out.
But, like I said I am a Monica fan also. I stay bumping “Still Standing” I think it is her best album since her debut.
Thanks you once again Danisha…lol
Haters and non-haters if you so much care about what Brandy in doing in terms of popping out an album, then follow her on twitter and you’ll know the facts for real.
