It’s going to be something of an odd cast of well-known and sometimes reviled characters on “Dancing with the Stars” when Rio Olympics bad boy Ryan Lochte will strut his stuff, as will failed GOP presidential hopeful Rick Perry, a former Texas governor known for his “oops” debate performance.

Ryan Lochte’s fabricated tale saw him swiftly fall out of favour with United States media.

Lochte tells ABC’s “Good Morning America” his legal team is dealing with the situation, adding “we’re just trying to get this over with”. “I think it’s time for me to hang up the Speedo and put on my dancing shoes and get in that ballroom”.

“Like I said, I did lie about that one part”, said Lochte, referring to his claim that a gun was held to his head. “A very big mistake”.

Model Amber Rose is also competing on the show.

“Everyone has got to be sick and exhausted about hearing about this”.

“I’m definitely really excited. He has a lot of self confidence but I think he needs to keep his day job”, Cornyn said.
