What does Woz's ex think? The billionaire geek was seen on the arm of D-list celebrity Kathy Griffin a while ago. They split up less than a year ago.
Will Woz do it on his Segway? He's an avid Segway enthusiast who apparently does everything on his Segway. And I do mean everything. Woz will compete against singer Jewel and her rodeo-riding husband Ty Murray, Olympic gold-medal-winning gymnast Shawn Johnson, Hall of Fame linebacker and former New York Giant Lawrence Taylor, Access Hollywood co-anchor Nancy O'Dell, actor and comedian David Alan Grier, rapper Lil' Kim, former Go-Go Belinda Carlisle, actress Denise Richards, actor Gilles Marini, and Jackass star Steve-O.
If he wins, will they change the name of the show to Dancing With The Woz?
