Unfortunately, ABC did not release images from rehearsals of the surprising castmember HLN anchor Nancy Grace or Carson Kressley.

Already, there’s been plenty of drama surrounding this season. Chaz Bono, who is the transgender son of Sonny and Cher, was greeted with a critical reception by some when he was cast on the show. Talk show host Lake has already been injured during rehearsal.
