A Whitney Houston superfan joins the judges on DWTS
Themed nights have become quite common on Dancing With The Stars, especially this season. Fans have enjoyed seeing the Season 32 contestants pay tribute to music legends, Disney movies, and so much more.
Naturally, Whitney Houston Night seemed like an excellent choice for the series. The singer was reportedly a big fan of the show.
“The estate of Whitney E. Houston and her family are honored that Dancing With The Stars is dedicating an episode of her signature songs for the show,” said Pat Houston, the executor of the singer’s estate. “Whitney was a fan of Dancing With The Stars and she would be proud of this recognition.”
The top seven couples are excited to honor Whitney Houston. But the night wouldn’t be quite complete without actor and singer Billy Porter, one of Whitney’s superfans. He will sit behind the judges’ desk and help score the performers for the evening.
Right now, the top seven are hard at work putting the finishing touches on their individual routines. They’ll have to work hard if they want to stay in the competition. After last week’s shocking elimination, anything could happen.

This week, the top seven will perform their own individual routines. Then they will go head to head with another couple in a dance battle. Ariana Madix and Pasha Pashkov won immunity this past week, so they will be exempt from the dance-off.

- Alyson Hannigan & Sasha Farber – Contemporary to “Greatest Love of All”
- Xochitl Gomez & Val Chmerkovskiy – Tango to “I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)”
- Ariana Madix & Pasha Pashkov – Paso Doble to “Queen of the Night”

- Jason Mraz & Daniella Karagach – Samba to “Higher Lover”
- Harry Jowsey & Rylee Arnold – Viennese Waltz to “I Have Nothing”
- Barry Williams & Peta Murgatroyd – Rumba to “Didn’t We Almost Have It All”
And here are the match ups for the dance battle:
