In a Dancing with the Stars (DWTS) first, three athletes will dance to the finish
in the fourth season of the hugely popular series. Among the athletes are
a current Olympic Gold Medalist, a member of the 1992 Men's U.S. Olympic
Basketball Dream Team, and an undefeated female boxer - the first female
athlete to compete on the series. Celebrities joining them include a
singer/actor who stars alongside his daughter in one of the Disney Channel's
most popular programs, a former member of one of the biggest selling music
groups of all-time, and a United Nations Goodwill Ambassador and activist
for Adopt-A-Minefield.
The weekly show matches celebrities with a latin-ballroom professional.
Each week this season, the celebrity and professional dance pairs will
perform live choreographed Latin and traditional ballroom dance routines
to popular live music performed by a 15-piece orchestra.
The expert panel of beloved and sometimes maligned judges, former
ballroom dancer Len Goodman and dancer/choreographers Bruno Tonioli
and Carrie Ann Inaba, will return for a third season to weigh in on
the pairs' performances. The viewing public also gets to weigh in,
by phoning in or voting online for their favorite performers. The
scores are combined and the outcome will be announced during a results
show the following evening.
Each Tuesday the suspense will build as the dancing couple with the
lowest combined score is eliminated on Dancing with the Stars, The
Results. Each results show will feature exciting live performances by
award-winning, multi-platinum selling pop, country and latin musical artists.
