Billy Ray Cyrus The man, the myth, the mullet, Billy Ray Cyrus was on season four of DWTS and was with Karina. Billy Ray swapped his cowboy boots for dance shoes and placed fifth.

Kim Kardashian Wow, so much has happened in the world of Kim K. since 2007 that it's hard to believe she was on season seven of DWTS. She was partnered up with Mark Ballas, and came in 11th place.

Buzz Aldrin Astronaut Buzz Aldrin was 80 when he signed up for DWTS, and that's impressive all on its own. Buzz and pro Ashly DelGrosso-Costa were eliminated week two of season 10. Maybe he would have been a little lighter on his feet if the show took place on the moon. Craig Sjodin - Getty Images
