We hate to brag, but we totally called this one: Jaleel White is making a comeback. Countless child stars have floundered and been swallowed by the sands of time (See: Dustin Diamond, Jodie Sweetin), but White has rematerialised: first as the host for SyFy game show Total Blackout and now in Dancing With the Stars.
White will partner with dancer Kym Johnson for the 14th season of the show, and will be joined by Gladys Knight, Gavin DeGraw, Extra's Maria Menounos and Green Bay Packers receiver Donald Driver, among others, on the celeb-cloaked dance floor.
We can't speak for the rest of cast, but White actaully has some pre-existing dance moves worth bragging about. And we're not just talking about "The Urkel", his famously awkward dance number on Family Matters. He's also premiered a few slick, up-to-date (and might we say, very Stefan-esque) moves in Cee-Lo's "Cry Baby" video.
White says he'll try to integrate his old routine with his new one: "I was talking to [Johnson] about some type of homage [to "The Urkel"]. I don't know what it would be", White said. "If I could find something in there that would be tongue and cheek, I'd do it."
