Jackass star Steve-O has been tapped as the next celebrity to join the cast of hit TV show Dancing With The Stars, according to reports.

The stuntman - real name Stephen Glover - has verbally agreed to appear on the ballroom dance show's next season, reports website TMZ.com. Glover was transferred from a rehabilitation center into a psychiatric hospital last July in a bid to kick his drug addiction.

In an entry posted on his official website at the time, he said, "I'm back in the loony bin trying to get my s**t right. I've now been clean for 115 days and I'm back in a mental institution."

Former Dancing With The Stars cast members include Priscilla Presley, singers Lance Bass and Melanie Brown, and actor George Hamilton. A spokesperson for the show had not issued a comment as WENN went to press.
