Dancing With the Stars has narrowed the amount of competing teams to only five, and this week’s semi-finals will decide to makes it into the final three.
Each couple will have a fairly normal week, which each of them performing two dances. One will be standard fare, with the pros choosing the songs.

Highlights include Whitney Carson selecting “Shake” by the Ying Yang Twins and Pitbull for Frankie Muniz and herself to salsa to, and Emma Slater picking The Proclaimers’ “I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)” for Drew Scott and herself to tango to.
The second round of dances has a twist, but it’s not nearly as big as the previous weeks’ twists. The second dance will be a reinterpretation of a previous season’s dance.
For example, Victoria Arlen and Val Chmerkovskiy will put their spin on Amber Riley and Derek Hough’s season 17 Charleston set to will.i.am’s “Bang Bang.”
At the end of the episode, another couple will be eliminated based on last week’s dances. The results of tonight’s dances will be revealed on next week’s episode.
