Watch Dancing with the Stars Week 3 Online
It’s Vegas Night in Hollywood for Dancing with the Stars’ third week of competition, and here’s what to look forward to on tonight’s episode.
Dancing with the Stars may have eschewed themes for its first two weeks (unless you count “letting stars refer to parts of their career” as a theme, since it happened in both weeks), but it’s Vegas Night tonight.
Let’s take a look at the dance styles that will be on display tonight, according to ABC:
Charleston
Bonner Bolton and Sharna Burgess: “A Little Party Never Killed Nobody” — Fergie, GoonRock, and Q-Tip
Bonner and Sharna have literally no competition in the Charleston this week, so they win by default.
Foxtrot
Charo and Keo Motsepe: “Chapel of Love” — The Dixie Cups
Normani Kordei and Val Chmerkovskiy: “Big Spender” — Shirley Bassey
Mr. T and Kym Herjavec: “Ain’t That a Kick in the Head” — Robbie Williams
We assume that part of the pre-dance package for Normani and Val will involve her commenting either that she hasn’t heard “Big Spender” before or that she secretly loves Shirley Bassey. There’s no middle ground here. She did do a quickstep in week one, so this isn’t her first time on the ballroom side of the equation.
Jive
Erika Jayne and Gleb Savchenko: “Take Me to Heaven” — Patina Miller, Debbie Kurup and Amy Booth-Steel
Like Bonner and Sharna, Erika and Gleb don’t have any competition here. Will we see proper kicks and flicks? (You just heard that phrase in Len Goodman’s voice. Admit it.)
Jazz
David Ross and Lindsay Arnold: “Candy Shop” — 50 Cent
This is a family show! Then again, there is an M&Ms World in Las Vegas, and the song famously quotes the M&M slogan, per Genius. That’s about the only connection we can see.
Quickstep
Simone Biles and Sasha Farber: “Viva Las Vegas” — Elvis Presley
Of course they broke out the most famous Vegas song in existence, and they also put this couple in a category of their own.
Samba
Rashad Jennings and Emma Slater: “Swalla” — Jason Derulo feat. Nicki Minaj & Ty Dolla $ign
Nancy Kerrigan and Artem Chigvintsev: “Shake Your Bon-Bon” — Ricky Martin
Samba may end up being Rashad Jennings’ speed. We’ll see if either Emma or Artem decide to incorporate the full samba roll for their celebs.
Tango
Heather Morris and Alan Bersten: “Toxic” — Britney Spears
Nick Viall and Peta Murgatroyd: “Poker Face” — Lady Gaga
Maks Chmerkovskiy has a lot of physical therapy to get through. Additionally, it’s tough to deny that giving Morris a song that she did on Glee as Brittany S. Pierce will not get at least one joking comment.
Date: Monday, April 3

Who will turn out the best performance tonight? Smart money goes for Rashad Jennings, Heather Morris, Normani Kordei, or Simone Biles, but who knows. We could be surprised.
