‘Dancing With the Stars’ Holds Horror Movie Night as Two Eliminations Loom
Season 35 of Dancing With the Stars held a horror movie-themed night in the ballroom on Tuesday.
The contestants performed dances inspired by films including Sinners, Black Swan and Joker.
Two couples were set to be eliminated because no one went home after the previous week’s episode.
Guest judge Shirley Ballas joined the panel, and Val Chmerkovskiy returned after a one-week suspension.
Judges’ scores and viewer votes decide who stays, with the lowest combined total leading to elimination.
The show airs on ABC and Disney+, with episodes available on Hulu the next day.
