From March 31, 2008 The wait is over! Dancing with the Stars is back for its sixth season, but as the celebrities tango, dip and shimmy their way across the screen the competition is so fierce it's left Rachael with a dilemma: "I don't know who to root for this time because I'm a fan of so many!" She's tried for the inside scoop on what makes a winner by talking with past champs Emmitt Smith and Helio Castronaves, but now she decides to go straight to the source, asking host Samantha Harris who she thinks has the edge. The new group of contestants includes Priscilla Presley, Adam Carolla, Shannon Elizabeth, Steve Guttenberg, Kristi Yamaguchi and Miami Dolphin Jason Taylor. Samantha points to actress Marlee Matlin as an intriguing competitor because she's the first hearing-impaired dancer. "Not being able to hear the music, she feels the vibrations," Samantha explains. "And she said it heightens so many of her other senses ... and she's also a crack-up!" Rachael agrees, and says she could have found her favorite: "I may have to go with her this season." Samantha is more than just a dancing whiz -- she's also a new mom to a 5-month-old, Jocelyn. When Samantha's daughter began to laugh and show off her personality, this mom realized she wanted to help some less fortunate children enjoy their own smiles. "You realize how important a smile is to a baby and Operation Smile is this wonderful organization that repairs facial disfigurements for children around the world," Samantha explains. "They've already helped over 100,000 kids and Oral B Satin Floss and Operation Smile have a special program that I've become the ambassador for and we're going to help many, many more."
