Eight remaining couples dance to some of the biggest country music songs during “Country Night” on Dancing with the Stars, live on MONDAY, NOV. 5 (8:00-10:00 p.m. EST), on ABC.
ACM New Female Artist of the Year, and American Idol alum Lauren Alaina, will perform her new song “Ladies in the ’90s,” alongside Alexis Ren and Alan Bersten’s Samba. CMA-nominated artist Chris Janson will sing “Can’t Help Falling in Love” as Bobby Bones and Sharna Burgess dance their Viennese waltz. Milo Manheim and Witney Carson will dance to “Born to Love You,” performed live by CMA-nominated group LANCO. Carly Pearce performs her gold-certified No. 1 single “Every Little Thing,” alongside Evanna Lynch and Keo Motsepe. In addition, CMA-nominated artist Cole Swindell will perform “Love You Too Late” from his No. 1-selling album “All of It.”
The couples will perform not one but two numbers. The first is a couple’s dance featuring a style not yet danced, and the second is a Team Dance, where the couples will split off into two teams: #TeamHayNow and #TeamJoeDown. Judges’ scores from both rounds of dancing will be combined with viewer votes from the previous week. For their individual dances, each couple will perform a samba, Viennese waltz, rumba, cha cha, jazz, Charleston or foxtrot dance. The team dances are country-based freestyles.
