Professional winner Derek Hough

Season sixteen of Dancing with the Stars premiered on March 18, 2013. Tom Bergeron and Brooke Burke Charvet returned as hosts, while Carrie Ann Inaba, Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli returned as judges. The Harold Wheeler orchestra and singers also returned to provide the music throughout the season. Fractional scores did not continue this season.

This is the first season where all finalists did not learn a Latin and a ballroom dance; no finalist learned Tango, Raisman did not learn Paso doble, Jones did not learn Samba, Pickler did not learn Salsa, and Zendaya did not learn Rumba. Each of the four finalists also did not dance one of the two new dance styles introduced this season. Raisman and Zendaya did not dance Jazz while Pickler and Jones did not dance Contemporary (although Kellie danced a Contemporary freestyle in the finals and Alexandra did an Afro-Jazz routine picked from Twitter).

This season is also centered around females, as of all the non-competition performances, the majority of the performers included and had emphases of those performances were female.

This marks the fourth win for Derek Hough giving him the most mirror ball trophies out of all the professional dancers on the show.

Couples

The cast of eleven and their professional partners was announced on February 26, 2013 on Good Morning America, with Jacoby Jones' participation confirmed two days earlier on February 24 during a network promo for the series airing during the 85th Oscars as a tease for the GMA announcement. This season saw its youngest contestant to date—16-year-old Zendaya (previously being Shawn Johnson from season 8 at 17). The following professionals who did not return for season 16 include Chelsie Hightower, Louis van Amstel, Anna Trebunskaya, and Maksim Chmerkovskiy (he eventually returned for season 18 to win).

Lindsay Arnold, a contestant from season nine of So You Think You Can Dance was introduced as a new professional along with Troupe member Sharna Burgess. Gleb Savchenko, who recently participated as a professional on season twelve of the Australian version, was also announced as a new professional.

Witney Carson, also a contestant from season nine of So You Think You Can Dance, and Julian Tocker joined Oksana Dmytrenko, Henry Byalikov, Emma Slater, and Sasha Farber as the fifth and sixth members of the Dance Troupe. Two weeks following the cast announcement, Sean Lowe as revealed on GMA as the 12th contestant this season partnering with Peta Murgatroyd.

After only two dances, Dorothy Hamill withdrew from the competition due to a potential severe back injury. She is the fourth celebrity to withdraw due to an injury, after Sara Evans in season three, Misty May-Treanor in season seven and Tom DeLay in season nine. This also marks the second consecutive season where Tristan MacManus and his partner have gone home first in the competition, although last season he and his partner were actually eliminated the first week. This is the first time since season nine that a couple withdrew.
