The second week of Dancing with the Stars season 25 will be brutal for the couples. There are two nights of dancing, which means two routines and two eliminations. On Monday the 13 couples will all take on classic ballroom styles and one will go home, then on Tuesday the 12 remaining pairs will spice things up for Latin Night, ending with another elimination.
On Monday’s Ballroom Night, we’ll be getting more Foxtrots and Tangos, plus our first Waltzes and Quicksteps. Then on Tuesday we get Rumbas, Argentine Tangos, Sambas and the first Paso Doble.
The combination of a Quickstep and a Rumba for Drew Scott seems like a recipe for disaster while Victoria Arlen taking on the Tango and Rumba should be an interesting challenge. Based solely on the styles, I’m most excited to see Lindsey and Mark’s Quickstep and Jordan and Lindsay’s Samba.
Nick vs. Vanessa: Which Lachey Will Last Longer?>>>
Here are all of the styles and songs for the two nights of competition in week 2. Obviously we’ll never get to see one of those Latin Night dances because one pair won’t make it to Tuesday.
