Dancing with the Stars week 7 live stream: Watch online
It’s time for an awful lot of cowboy boots, team dances, and probably some terrible puns on Dancing with the Stars’ Country Night.
First, let’s talk those team dances that’ll be coming from Dancing with the Stars‘ Country Night. Both are meant to be freestyle, but expect the pros to sprinkle in some elements of some dances in order to impress one judge in particular (we’re talking about Len Goodman). Here’s ABC’s details:
#TeamJoeDown
"Alexis Ren and Alan BerstenDeMarcus Ware and Lindsay ArnoldJoe Amabile and Jenna JohnsonJuan Pablo Di Pace and Cheryl Burke"
These couples have “Country Girl” by Luke Bryan as their song. Joe and Jenna will likely require easier choreography than the other couples, meaning that the team as a whole might not shine as much as it possibly could.
#TeamHayNow
"Bobby Bones and Sharna BurgessEvanna Lynch and Keo MotsepeJohn Schneider and Emma SlaterMilo Manheim and Witney Carson"
With “9 to 5” as the song for these couples, they do have the better, more recognizable song, but that can be a double-edged sword. The judges will expect a big number, and since this is Bobby’s element — country music — he might break out again in this and bring the group up as a whole.
But before we get through the team dances, we’ll likely have to watch the solo performances. Again, we’re looking at ABC’s press release for this information.
Charleston
"Juan and Cheryl: “One Shot,” Hunter Hayes"
A country Charleston seems like a mismatch, but he certainly has the charm to carry it off all the same. The faster-paced dances have often been his strong suit, so he’ll likely be fine. However, country nights have been the missteps of previous front-runners, so there is something in the way of danger here.
Foxtrot
"Milo and Witney: “Born to Love You,” LANCO (live)"
Here’s his chance to show that his recent string of high scores can’t be defeated by a dastardly ballroom performance.
Jazz
"John and Emma: “Thank God I’m a Country Boy,” John Denver"
He should connect to this song just by virtue of who he is and what he’s most famous for, so it could make for a really strong performance. It’s really hard to say, honestly. He’s the biggest wild card.
Rumba
"Evanna and Keo: “Every Little Thing,” Carly Pearce (live)"
Rumba doesn’t seem like it’d fit the genre of music, but the live performance may help her connect to the song in particular. It’s just hard to see her really delivering a knockout rumba on this kind of night.
Samba
"Alexis and Alan: “Ladies in the ’90s,” Lauren Alaina (live)"
You know how no one can shut up about how much chemistry Alexis and Alan have? This is where they can put it to work and drive up those scores to get perfection.
Tango
"Joe and Jenna: “Burning Man,” Dierks Bentley ft. brothers Osbourne"
There’s nothing nice to say about this, so I won’t say anything at all.
Viennese waltz:
"Bobby and Sharna: “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” Chris Janson (live)DeMarcus and Lindsay: “Tennessee Whiskey,” Chris Stapleton"
These two are competing to basically break into the middle tier in the case of Bobby and Sharna, or otherwise stay in the middle tier in the case of DeMarcus and Lindsay.
