So much for ABC waiting to reveal its Dancing with the Stars couples.

Despite its decision to officially reveal Dancing with the Stars' ninth-season pairings on Monday's Good Morning America broadcast, 12 of the 16 couples have already been leaked.

The most recently revealed pairings are indicted former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay and Cheryl Burke, actress Joanna Krupa and Derek Hough, UFC mixed martial arts fighter Chuck Liddell and Anna Trebunskaya, singer Aaron Carter and Karina Smirnoff, singer/actress Mya and Dmitry Chaplin, Food Network host Mark Dacascos and Lacy Schwimmer, former The Osbournes star Kelly Osbourne and Louis van Amstel, and retired NFL star Michael Irvin and professional newcomer Anna Demidova.

Actress Debi Mazar and Maksim Chmerkovskiy, entertainer Donny Osmond and Kym Johnson, actor/singer Ashley Hamilton and Edyta Sliwinska, and Olympic gold medalist swimmer Natalie Coughlin and Alec Mazo were all previously leaked as Dancing with the Stars ninth-season couples earlier this week.

DeLay revealed his pairing with Burke -- a two-time mirror ball trophy winner -- in a Wednesday post on his personal website.

"I couldn't be more excited," read DeLay's post.

Hough used his Twitter account to spill the beans about being partnered with Krupa after initially teasing fans that he knew about the pairing but declined to reveal it.

"Just found out who I have ... But I can't say .. :)" wrote Hough on Tuesday.

Despite his best attempts at keeping quiet, the cat was out of the bag by Thursday.

"Joanna and I holding it down in the studio," he wrote on his Twitter page before also posting a photo of the two in practice.

Lidell's partnership with Trebunskaya was reported Thursday by The Insider. Mya's partnership with Chaplin was reported by Entertainment Tonight on Tuesday, while Cater's pairing with Smirnoff was reported by ET on Wednesday.

Decascos and Schwimmer and Osbourne and van Amstel both had their pairings reported by Access Hollywood on Thursday while Irvin revealed Demidova as his partner during an interview with Dallas' ESPN Radio affiliate earlier this week.

That leaves singer Macy Gray, actress Melissa Joan Hart, former supermodel Kathy Ireland and professional snowboarder Louie Vito as the only remaining ninth-season celebrities who have yet to have their professional partners leaked.
