LET'S DANCE

According to rumour, Mark Latham is planning another hey-look-at-me moment:

Former Labor leader Mark Latham could be set to swap politics for the paso doble as a celebrity contender in the fourth series of channel seven's ballroom extravaganza, Dancing with the Stars.

A Seven spokesman said yesterday the negotiations for the fourth series were still in initial phases, but confirmed Latham "would be a great get for the program".

The ABC is asking readers to suggest Liberals for Latham to dance against.

Oh yeah, considering the nature of the "celebrities" on the show, it would be better called Dancing with the Nearly or Once Famous.
