The Incredible Hulk star Lou Ferrigno is "surprised" at being left out of the line-up for the new season of Dancing With The Stars. The 47-year-old had held talks with producers about appearing on the ninth series of the show.

However, after losing 25 pounds in preparation for the tight costumes and gruelling routines, his name was not on the list of the 16 contestants taking part. His manager and wife Carla told RadarOnline.com: "They never even had the class to give Lou a call and tell him that he was not going to be chosen - this is the second time they haven't selected him but it will be the last. "We couldn't believe some of the people they picked, and Lou was more surprised than upset that he wasn't chosen because we know he would have been great. "I mean, Tom Delay, a corrupt politician, a skateboarder [Louie Vito] who nobody has ever heard of, and what exactly has Ashley Hamilton ever done?"
