" Derek Hough has confirmed that he will return to Dancing with the Stars this season. The three-time Dancing with the Stars professional cast doubt on returning for the spring season earlier this month, citing his intent to focus on outside projects.  Hough took to Twitter on Friday (February 22) to reveal that he will in fact be back in the ballroom once again for season 16. &amp;quot;Just got the call wasn&amp;#039;t sure if I was able to do this season because of my other projects . But worked it out so I can do both. #pumped,&amp;quot; Hough tweeted. Hough is coming off a second-place finish in the most recent Dancing with the Stars: All-Stars cycle, where he was paired with Shawn Johnson.  Rumored cast members for season 16 include The Bachelor star Sean Lowe, Olympian Aly Raisman, Wynonna Judd and Kellie Pickler. The cast will be formally announced on Good Morning America on Tuesday (February 26). Dancing with the Stars returns on Monday, March 18 at 8/7c on ABC. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
