Some Dancing with the Stars spoilers have been revealed by ABC ahead of the highly-anticipated Boy Band & Girl Group Night for the show. It’s going to likely include a lot of surprise celebrities in the audience.
It was Kate Flannery and Pasha Pashkov that were eliminated last week on DWTS, leaving just six couples competing for the mirrorball trophy. They will each perform two dances during an all-new episode of the show.
The theme for the episode called Boy Band & Girl Group Night is pretty simple, as the couples will each dance to a song by a famous girl group in the first round. During the second round of performances, they will be done to famous boy band songs.
Some of the groups that will be represented during the night include TLC, Spice Girls, En Vogue, The Pointer Sisters, Backstreet Boys, BTS, New Kids on the Block, Boyz II Men, and *NSYNC.
Dear #BTSARMY, I think you will want to watch @DancingABC on Monday night. One of the six remaining couples will be dancing to a #BTS song! Spread the word!#DWTS @BTS_twt pic.twitter.com/gfE9PDSBFE
