The new stars to grace the dance floor for the new season of "Dancing With the Stars" was announced on "Good Morning America." The 12 celebrities were revealed in Times Square in New York City on the morning show.

Hosts Tom Bergeron and Brooks Burke-Charvet helped reveal the cast which will include "Jersey Shore" star Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, actress Valerie Harper and former NFL star Keyshawn Johnson. Veteran and fan-favorite professional dancers Maksim Chmerkocskiy and Kym Johnson will not be returning this season and will be replaced by two new faces.

"I wish all the dancers and celebrities in season 17 nothing but love and success, and hope to see you all back on the dance floor for season 18," Johnson said in a statement to E! News.

For the first time since the show started, it will do away with the two nights a week show and will instead combine the performance and the results into a two-hour Monday night show.

"We really wanted to focus and event-ize 'Dancing With the Stars.' I know [executive producer] Conrad [Green] is having a whole lot of fun contracting a night on Monday that not only gives you the dances but the results," ABC boss Paul Lee said. "Effectively what we're doing is we're taking the votes from the judges and the votes from the audience and bringing them together at the end. Conrad has worked through a really interesting two hours. It builds to a climax at the end."

Each week the celebrities will perform challenging dance moves in hopes of advancing and winning the coveted Mirror Ball trophy.

Season 17 of "Dancing With the Stars" returns Monday, Sept. 16 at 8 p.m. on ABC.
