Dancing with the Stars will recreate some truly memorable dances for season 21. The nine remaining couples will all take on a Famous Dance routine from a movie, musical or music video and put their own spin on it.
The line-up of dances is rather odd. Paula Deen will “Vogue,” Derek Hough will try Dirty Dancing with someone other than Jennifer Grey and Carlos PenaVega will unleash his inner male stripper. There’s also some Elvis, John Travolta, Janet Jackson, Britney Spears and Singing in the Rain.
In addition to the Famous Dances, the stars will be back with their original partners, one couple will be eliminated and Olivia Newton-John will serve as a guest judge, so Hayes Grier and Emma Slater had better bring it with their Grease routine.
Here’s a look at what Famous Dances are coming.
Bindi Irwin and Derek Hough: “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life” from Dirty Dancing
Carlos PenaVega and Witney Carson: “Pony” from Magic Mike
Hayes Grier and Emma Slater: “You’re the One That I Want” from Grease
Nick Carter and Sharna Burgess: “You Should Be Dancing” from Saturday Night Fever
Andy Grammer and Allison Holker: “Good Morning” from Singing in the Rain
Alek Skarlatos and Lindsay Arnold: “Jailhouse Rock”from Jailhouse Rock
Alexa PenaVega and Mark Ballas: “I’m a Slave 4 U” by Britney Spears
Paula Deen and Louis van Amstel: “Vogue” by Madonna
Tamar Braxton and Val Chmerkovskiy: “Rhythm Nation” by Janet Jackson
Dancing with the Stars airs Mondays at 8pm on ABC.
