Candace Cameron Bure to be on Dancing with the Stars

"Dancing With The Stars" returns for its 18th season and the new crop of celebrity competitors may be the fiercest yet.

Fresh off their gold-medal win at the Sochi Olympics, Meryl Davis and Charlie White headline the star lineup, as well as Drew Carey and swimming legend Diana Nyad.

Former "Full House" actress Candace Cameron Bure, "The Wonder Years" star Danica McKellar and Australian pop singer Cody Simpson are among the other celebs with their eyes set on the mirrorball trophy.

In two "Dancing" firsts, double-amputee snowboarding champ Amy Purdy, who lost both of her legs as a teenager and pushed to become a world-champion adaptive snowboarder, will be the first Paralympian to compete. Sean Avery is the first former hockey player in "Dancing" history.
