Former Bachelor host Chris Harrison is just one rumored contestant being considered this season, according to a report by Radar Online. After being embroiled in controversy following accusations of racism in the franchise, Chris was reportedly “approached to join the show”—but not as a host.
“He was a little upset when he realized Tyra wanted him as a contestant, but after he got over his bruised ego, Chris didn’t say ‘no,’” a source told Radar. “After the way he left The Bachelor it has not been easy for Chris to find a new gig right away. Which is why something like Dancing With The Stars might work. It will give Chris a chance to change his narrative from the white guy who made insensitive racial remarks to reminding everyone why they fell in love Chris in the first place.”
LeAnn Rimes – Rumored
