While appearing on the morning talk show, Tori was asked what advice she thought Brian and Shannen would give her for Dancing With The Stars.
'Oh my gosh, well, Brian knew, it was like a secret, and he was like: "You can do this. Believe in yourself,"' said Tori.
She added that Shannon, who succumbed to cancer aged 53 in July, 'will be watching over, and she always said: "You gotta turn your power on," so I'm doing it now.'
Tori shared that she 'always wanted to do' Dancing With The Stars, gushing: 'It's been one of my lifelong dreams but I was always too scared, and I figured, you know what, this is the point in my life, everything happens for a reason at the right time, so now I'm gonna push through my fear and do it!'
Other contestants on the next season include fake heiress Anna Delvey, Julia Roberts' brother Eric Roberts and Olivia Culpo's NFL ex Danny Amendola.
Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue model Brooks Nader, who was recently rumored to be dating Tom Brady, has also been cast.
NBA star Dwight Howard, Olympic rugby player Ilona Maher, former Bachelorette Jenn Tran, former Bachelor Joey Graziadei, Family Matters actor Reginald VelJohnson, Chandler Kinney of Pretty Little Liars: Summer School fame and Olympic gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik are in competition as well.

Shannen was paired with professional dancer Mark Ballas, but they were eliminated in the second week - the first pair to be sent home.
After a years-long battle with cancer, Shannen died this July at the age of 53, eliciting an outpouring of grief from fans and loved ones alike.
'As everyone knows, I lost a good friend,' said Tori on her podcast misSPELLING. 'While it was expected, I think the unexpected hit all of us quite hard.'
Tori's casting on Dancing With The Stars comes five months after she filed for divorce from her husband Dean McDermott, with whom she shares five children -Liam, 17, Stella, 16, Hattie, 12, Finn, 12, and Beau, seven.
They were married for 18 years and separated for 10 months before Tori filed legal documents in late March to officially dissolve their union.

The couple battled financial problems for years, after Tori's parents Aaron and Candy Spelling kept the family fortune mainly out of her hands.
When Aaron died in 2006, Tori infamously inherited just $800,000 of his vast wealth, which was estimated at $600 million.
Candy, the executor of Aaron's estate, told the New York Times that her daughter got so little money because of her extravagance.
She said that Tori 'would close a store and drop $50,000 to $60,000,' insisting: 'I never did anything like that. She just went crazy.'
