Dancing with the Stars 32 to Celebrate Whitney Houston on November 17
While Dancing with the Stars celebrates the Top 10 celebrity dancer’s “Most Memorable Year” this week, ABC/Disney announces that on Tuesday November 14, the contestants will celebrate the music of Whitney Houston.
The seven remaining couples will be “Saving All Their Love” for the ballroom floor as they dance to hit songs from one of the bestselling music artists of all time, Whitney Houston. Additionally, actor, singer and Whitney Houston superfan, Billy Porter will serve as a guest judge alongside Carrie Ann Inaba, Derek Hough and Bruno Tonioli.

“The estate of Whitney E. Houston and her family are honored that Dancing with the Stars is dedicating an episode of her signature songs for the show,” said Pat Houston, executor of the estate of Whitney E. Houston. “Whitney was a fan of Dancing with the Stars, and she would be proud of this recognition.”

Houston died on Feb. 11, 2012 at 48 years old, the day before the Grammy Awards. The singer accidentally drowned in a bathtub at the Beverly Hilton Hotel just hours before Clive Davis’ pre-Grammy Awards party.
