Brooke Burke is ready to hit Dancing With The Stars‘ stage once again, but this time as the show’s co-host, accompanying Tom Bergeron.

Since Burke was still on vacation in Africa with her family, the news about Burke joining the show was announced Monday by Bergeron, on ABC’s Good Morning America, saying that, “She’ll be able to talk to the couples backstage with the perspective of having been there herself.”

38-year-old Burke will replace Samantha Harris, who announced her departure in January. The presenter is no stranger to Dancing With The Stars, as she was actually the season-seven winner, successfully achieving the title in November 2008, with partner Derek Hough. Before the new project, Burke had previously hosted several show, including the TV shows Wild On, Rock Star: INXS and Rock Star: Supernova.

Contestants for this tenth season are pretty great and were hoped to be the most memorable ones. They are: former Baywatch babe Pamela Anderson, reality star Kate Gosselin, astronaut Buzz Aldrin, Olympics figure skating gold medalist Evan Lysacek, reality TV personality (and a Bachelor no more) Jake Pavelka, sportscaster Erin Andrews, Pussycat Dolls’ singer Nicole Scherzinger, football star Chad Ochocinco and actors Shannen Doherty, Aiden Turner and Niecy Nash.

The all-new DWTS will kick off on Monday, March 22, at 8 p.m. on ABC. Be sure to tune in!
