For the first time ever, viewers will be able to score dances along with the judges LIVE on Dancing with the Stars.
Here are details from ABC on how to score tonight’s dance rountines:
Even more power is in the viewers’ hands next week. For the first time ever, America can act as a guest judge and score celebrity performances alongside Julianne Hough, Carrie Ann Inaba and Bruno Tonioli. To be part of the Judges’ table, viewers must visit abc.com to score performances. A combined overall viewer score for each performance will be counted alongside the judges’ score. Each viewer may score a performance once, and the scoring window for each couple is open for two minutes and fifteen seconds, beginning at the start of each routine. At the end of the night, one couple will face elimination based on the previous week’s scores and public vote.
Also, the twitter “Switch Up” vote, allowing home viewers to vote for new pairings, will continue:
Twitter voting for the “Switch Up” continues, and the public can continue to vote throughout Monday’s program. To vote, viewers must Tweet using #DWTS followed by the first name of the celebrity and the first name of the professional dancer. For example, to pair up celebrity Betsey Johnson and professional dancer Mark Ballas, use the Tweet “#DWTSBETSEYMARK.” In addition, abc.com will have a page dedicated to assisting viewers in casting their votes. There is no limit on the number of votes one person can cast. Voting for the “Switch Up” remains open until Monday, October 6 at 11:59 p.m., ET.
Tonight, the 10 remaining celebrities will dance to songs commemorating their most memorable year. Each couple will dance to a song of the celebrities choosing that encompasses a memorable time or experience in their life. Singer/Songwriter, Colbie Caillat, will perform.
And you know what “memorable moments” mean? Alfonso Ribeiro and his pro partner, Witney Carson will do the “Carlton Dance” tonight. In case you don’t know, that was Alfonso’s trademark when he played Carlton in the Fresh Prince of Bel Air back in the 90s.
Join Celebrity Bug tonight as she live blogs the show, at 8/7c PM.
