‘Dancing with the Stars’ 19 spoilers: Leah Remini to fill in for Erin Andrews as co-host

HereThe moment that Erin Andrews was unveiled as the new co-host for “Dancing with the Stars” earlier this year, we knew that there would be some moments where her schedule as a Fox Sports sideline reporter would get in the way. Specifically, we are going to see at least one of these moments come up Monday, when she is off preparing to cover the World Series between the Kansas City Royals and San Francisco Giants.

So who is going to step into a dress and grab a microphone for the occasion? This time around, it is former contestant and “King of Queens” alum Leah Remini! Leah has also been a part of “The Talk,” so she understands a variety of different TV formats.

Speaking to E! News, who first confirmed the news about her joining the show, Leah had the following to say:

“So excited to be back on the show, even more excited I don’t have to dance! I hope ABC has a delay, gonna speak my mind!”

Leah is not going to be the only changing face on the show Monday, as Len Goodman will yet again not be in attendance as he tries to avoid some of the frequent cross-country travel in the fall. He will be replaced at the panel by none other than music superstar Pitbull, who at least seems to know something about dance, even if he’s not a pro at it. If nothing else, he’s taken part in so many high-octane performances that he knows what is good entertainment, and what isn’t. Still, this is the second straight week that the guest performer is also the judge.
