NEW YORK, N.Y. – A gold-medal figure skater, a country music legend and a kooky comedian are stepping their way onto “Dancing With the Stars.”

ABC says Dorothy Hamill, Wynona Judd and Andy Dick are among 11 contenders for the mirrored ball on the new season of the celebrity dance competition.

Other famous faces in the show’s 16th edition include standup comic and actor D.L. Hughley, Baltimore Ravens football player Jacoby Jones and former “American Idol” contestant Kellie Pickler.

Also on hand will be former welterweight boxing champ Victor Ortiz, “General Hospital” star Ingo Rademacher, actress-singer Zendaya Coleman and Lisa Vanderpump from “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” as well as Olympic gold-medal gymnast Aly Raisman.

The new “Dancing With the Stars” season kicks off on ABC with a two-hour premiere on March 18.
