It’s finally here!!!
“Dancing with the Stars” Season 34 will return to ABC on Tuesday, Sept. 16 at 8 p.m. ET, with 14 celebrities vying for the Mirrorball trophy alongside their dance partners. Each week, they will perform a different style of dance, trying to impress judges Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Toniolo, and Derek Hough, along with the public, who will vote for their favorites.
Alfonso Ribeiro and Julianne Hough will co-host the hit series.
The show will kick off with a “high-energy opening number” to Kill the Lights” by Whitney Myer, ABC announced in a press release. And then, the individual performances begin.
However, Inaba will miss the premiere, having posted on Instagram a few hours before the premiere. “I wanted to share that I will not be at the show tonight as I am feeling quite under the weather,” she wrote. “I’m resting up and can’t wait to be back next week in good health.”
