"Duck Dynasty" star Sadie Robertson is the latest celebrity to join the new roster of stars for season 19 of 'Dancing With The Stars."
Robertson's mother, Korie, has revealed that her daughter has always wanted to be on the hit show.
"I think that our kids are really natural in front of the camera and they have fun with it. Sadie I think wants to maybe be in a talk show and she wants to be on 'Dancing with the Stars!'" she told Us Weekly magazine.
Joining the 17-year old on the show is Janel Parrish, who plays Mona on "Pretty Little Liars." This was confirmed by a source of Us Weekly. Other celebrities who will compete for the Mirror Ball are Antonio Sabato Jr., a former Calvin Klein underwear model and General Hospital alum, and Olympian Lolo Jones. It was E!

She will be joining veteran judges Carrie Ann Inaba, Len Goodman, and Bruno Tonioli. In a press release, Hough shared that she was looking forward to being a part of the show again.
"I'm so excited to be back with my 'Dancing with the Stars' family again on a regular basis!" said Hough.
