Summary
Witney Carson and Guillermo Rodriguez became the first official "Dancing with the Stars" season 35 pairing, with Carson returning after winning season 34 alongside Robert Irwin.
Sept. 2 will bring the full celebrity and pro lineup on "Good Morning America," after the show already confirmed Maura Higgins, Ciara Miller and Savannah Bananas player Jackson Olson as contestants.
Aug. 31 will also keep Carson in the franchise spotlight when she co-hosts the "DWTS: The Next Pro" finale with Irwin.
Five Emmy nominations for the latest season — including Outstanding Reality Program after a 10-year shutout — underscore the show's recent resurgence ahead of its Sept. 15 ABC premiere.
