Style Network's Bill and Giuliana Rancic will be appearing at the She: An Expo for Women in Chattanooga on July 21-22.

A best-selling author, a reality-television power couple and two "Dancing With the Stars" champions will headline the two-day She: An Expo for Women in the Chattanooga Convention Center on July 21-22.

Appearing at Saturday's event will be writer Nicholas Sparks and Style Network's Giuliana and Bill Rancic. Entertaining guests at Sunday's expo will be "Dancing With the Stars" champs Cheryl Burke and Mark Ballas.

"I'm excited to come to Chattanooga this summer for the women's expo and meet all our fans," Burke said via email.

The She expo is an annual event for women presented by the Times Free Press and sponsored by Memorial Health Care System.

It offers visitors one-stop shopping at more than 150 vendor booths in everything from cosmetics to clothing to cookware. Tasting samples, trying spa treatments, collecting giveaways and registering for door prizes are all part of the fun each afternoon at the Convention Center.

Times Free Press President and General Manager Jason Taylor said this year's celebrity lineup is the result of popular demand.

"Each year, we poll event attendees to see who they would like at future She expos. All of this year's celebrity guests have been recommended to us over and over again," he said. "We wanted to add more entertainment to this year's event in hopes that the event will only continue to grow."

All of the celebrity guests will interact with their fans in some form during their expo visits, according to Lyndsi Sebastian, Times Free Press marketing manager.

"Nicholas Sparks will hold a two-hour book signing Saturday," she said. "He also will be onstage for 'An Afternoon With Nicholas Sparks.'

"Giuliana and Bill Rancic will be onstage Saturday for a talk and an audience question-and-answer session. There also will be a VIP meet-and-greet with them, with limited tickets available," she said.

Tickets for that meet-and-greet, as well as She admission tickets, may be purchased online at timesfreepress.com/she.

Burke and Ballas will set toes tapping Sunday when the "Dancing With the Stars" champs entertain the audience. Sebastian said that in addition to dance demonstrations, these fan favorites will hold a photo session and talk to the audience. Ballas may even sing.

Relish magazine will present the Relish Cooking Show each day of the expo, featuring chef Steve Petusevsky.

"Prepare to laugh, learn and laugh some more as the Relish Cooking Show joins the She expo for the first time," said Brian Morris, Relish show producer.

"Packed with delicious recipes, audience interaction, comedy, music and lots of multimedia surprises, our show is like none you've seen before. The show features nine amazing dishes designed to make real food doable in our busy lifestyles," he said.

The 2012 She expo is featuring a new ticket price: $10 if purchased in advance, $12 at the door. Sebastian said the ticket is good for both days of the expo.
