Internet split as George Santos '100% on list' for 'Dancing with the Stars' and could be paid a hefty $2M
WASHINGTON DC: George Santos, who was fired by his coworkers, could soon be seen on reality TV.
Producers are reportedly considering former Rep Santos, but it will all rely on whether or not he can maintain his media attention when they make casting choices, a source told Daily Mail.
The US House of Representatives has expelled Congressman Santos, following a damning ethics report and dozens of criminal charges.
Will George Santos be a part of 'Dancing with the Stars'?
An insider reports, "Producers from The Masked Singer, Dancing with the Stars, Celebrity Big Brother and I'm A Celebrity talk about everyone being a part of their shows and look over the pros and cons after they blurt out a name in meetings from that point on. George Santos is 100 per cent on their lists."
However, putting the former New York Republican in the spotlight could be contentious given his history of wrongdoings, which includes claims of fraud, stealing donations to pay for OnlyFans and Botox, and a litany of lies about his family's involvement in the Holocaust, his mother's death on 9/11, his employment on Wall Street, his recovery from a brain tumor, his Ukrainian-Jewish ancestry, and his founding of a charity, BBC reports.
The source added, "With the backlash that Dancing with the Stars got from casting Sean Spicer a few years ago and what The Masked Singer got from casting Rudy Giuliani, they may have a couple more conversations when it comes to casting George, but he isn't out of the conversation."
