Hang on to your tight rope and put up your jazz hands because next week’s episode of Dancing with the Stars is Cirque du Soleil themed! Be sure to tune in next Monday 8/7c on ABC Television Network.
Acrobats, aerialists, dancers and fire-stick performers from six of our Cirque du Soleil shows will be part of one of the biggest episodes ever of ABC’s DANCING WITH THE STARS. It will unfold on the ballroom floor Monday as the 11 remaining couples perform big-spectacle dances for a Cirque theme night.
Each couple will perform a dance inspired by a Cirque show while the amazing Cirque stars perform alongside them. Three other Cirque shows outside Las Vegas — KURIOS, LA NOUBA and PARAMOUR — will join our artists.
Here’s the rundown as of today: Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds and Allison Holker, THE BEATLES LOVE at The Mirage; Marilu Henner and Derek Hough, KA at MGM Grand; Laurie Hernandez and Val Chmerkovskiy, MICHAEL JACKSON ONE at Mandalay Bay; Terra Jole and Sasha Farber, O at The Bellagio; and Jana Kramer and Gleb Savchenko, LOVE.
Also, Ryan Lochte and Cheryl Burke, O; Maureen McCormick and Artem Chigvintsev, MYSTERE at T.I.; Amber Rose and Maks Chmerkovskiy, ZUMANITY at New York-New York; James Hinchcliffe and Sharna Burgess, PARAMOUR; Calvin Johnson Jr. and Lindsay Arnold, KURIOS; and Vanilla Ice and Witney Carson, LA NOUBA.
No couples will be eliminated Monday, but judges, minus Len Goodman for a few weeks playing head judge of the British DWTS, will sharpen scoring Tuesday for the third elimination. Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry and actor Jake T. Austin have been cut in Season 23.
