Don’t forget the tissues because this week it’s Dedication Night on “Dancing With the Stars.”
As Week 5 of the dancing competition show kicks off, the 10 remaining couples will pull at viewers’ heartstrings with their routines. For the first time ever on “DWTS,” each celebrity has selected a family member or friend that will join them on the ballroom floor to pay tribute to them with a heartfelt and meaningful performance.
The night will begin with the troupe dancing to “Mystical Magical” by Benson Boone. The dancers will also entertain the crowd with a routine to “Man I Need” by Olivia Dean, as well as with additional pro performances to “Green Light” by Lorde, choreographed by Jenna Johnson and Britt Stewart, and “Back On 74” by Jungle, choreographed by Brandon Armstrong.
Plus, former pro and two-time Mirrorball champion Kym Johnson will join the panel as a guest judge alongside Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Tonioli and Derek Hough.
The episode will end with another pair exiting the ballroom. Last week’s Disney Night saw the elimination of Hilaria Baldwin and partner Gleb Savchenko.
