Christopher Willard // ABC Key Points Internet sleuths zoomed in on a mirror selfie from DWTS troupe member Kamri Peterson's Instagram Stories on Monday, November 2, revealing the complete performance order and song selections for the evening’s dances. The eight remaining pairs will perform individual dances before two team dances. Season 27 winner Bobby Bones previously revealed that DWTS producers strategically position dancers at the top of hours and show segments to maximize viewership, with top spots reserved for performers the network wants audiences to see. It’s a big night on Dancing With the Stars , and we’ve (sort of) got a first look at the performance order thanks to an accidental social post.
Some internet sleuths may have cracked the code on tonight’s performance lineup after zooming in on a mirror selfie posted to DWTS troupe member Kamri Peterson’s Instagram Stories on Monday, November 2.
According to the pic, DWTS ’s Disney Night performance lineup is as follows:
On top of each celeb’s individual dances with their pro partners, tonight marks the first time groups will be divided for team dances. After Connor Wood and Rylee Arnold close off the regular dances, the team dances will commence.
Team Slaytopia—comprised of Alfonso Ribeiro, Tatyana Ali, Jan Ravnik, Maura Higgins, Mark Ballas, Amber Glenn, Pasha Pashkov, Julia Stiles, and Ezra Sosa—will take the ballroom stage first. Then, Team Wildcats—Julianne Hough, Ezra Frech, Dani Karagach, Jenna Dewan, Val Chmerkovskiy, Harry Shum Jr., Jenna Johnson, Connor, and Rylee—will follow with their group number.
As for how DWTS producers decide the order in which the couples perform, season 27 winner Bobby Bones actually gave some intel before the leak—and it all comes down to television ratings.
“The network would probably kill me for saying this,” Bobby said during a recent appearance on the He Said G Said podcast . “If they’re putting you at the top of the hour, that means they want you to be seen. Because during [the live show] if they’ll put you at one or they’ll put you at the top of the second hour … people are flipping off of other channels if they’re watching linearly through television, if they left one show and they’re coming over to watch that second hour, you’re the first person they see.”
He added, “There’s strategy involved with who they put at the top of the show and who they’re putting at the very top of that next hour and who they’re putting at the end as well.”
That being said…here’s the full (alleged) performance order, as well as the couples’ respective Disney/Broadway songs, below:
