Details are right here. Welcome Back Sharna!
The five remaining couples advance to the Semi-Finals in one of the show’s tightest competitions ever, on Dancing with the Stars, live, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 14 (8:00-10:01 p.m. EST), on the ABC Television Network. Each couple will dance two dances – one being a style the couple has not danced to yet, and the second being a Trio Dance, in which each celebrity couple will dance with a third dancer. For the Trio Dance, Laurie Hernandez will dance with Valentin Chmerkovskiy and Maksim Chmerkovskiy; James Hinchcliffe will dance with Sharna Burgess and Jenna Johnson; Calvin Johnson Jr. will dance with Lindsay Arnold and Witney Carson; Terra Jolé will dance with Sasha Farber and Artem Chigvintsev; and Jana Kramer will dance with Gleb Savchenko and Alan Bersten.
The judges will score the Trio Dances, and the points from the couples’ routines and the Trio Dances will be added together for the final judges’ scores.
Each celebrity will perform a foxtrot, Argentine tango, tango, rumba, quickstep, samba, jive, salsa or paso doblé. At the end of the night, one couple will be eliminated, determining the final four couples who will go on to the finals to vie for the mirrorball.
