‘Dancing with the Stars’ 20 spoilers: What Chris Soules, Robert Herjavec will perform on Disney night
For the second time in the past three seasons, “Dancing with the Stars” is dipping into the Disney well. This does make sense that the show would go in this direction, if for no other reason than that it makes parent companies more money! Also, everyone has such great memories of Disney movies, and it makes some sense to touch in to some of those emotional connections that people have to these movies.
As we do every other week, we’re here to give you in advance the full list of performances that you are going to get a chance to see on the show. Of course, you’ve been warned right now that we’re spoiling somewhat of the surprise! These come to us courtesy of BuddyTV, but our impressions are our own.
Patti LaBelle and Artem Chigvintsev – “When You Wish Upon a Star” from “Pinocchio.” Sure Patti is probably the worst dancer left, but she’s fun and should have a chance to show off more of a whimsical side here.
Chris Soules and Witney Carson – “Zero to Hero” from “Hercules.” We’re not sure we ever sat down and watched this movie from start to finish. Therefore, we do not necessarily have a full impression for how this should go other than that Chris should be dressed like him.
Willow Shields and Mark Ballas – “Alice’s Theme” from “Alice in Wonderland.” Given that Willow is a little young for the more romantic songs, doing something from this movie is probably the right choice.
Robert Herjavec and Kym Johnson – “Step in Time” from “Mary Poppins.” Robert is the wealthiest chimney sweep of all time! Somehow, though, this still fits his personality well.
Nastia Liukin and Derek Hough – “Love Is an Open Door” from “Frozen.” Did you really think that there would not be a “Frozen” performance? We can see them getting into the characters well here, minus the ice and the fact that “Let It Go” is the song everyone remembers.
Rumer Willis and Val Chmerkovskiy – “Poor Unfortunate Souls” from “The Little Mermaid.” Yay, an evil song! There is something really fun about getting the darker side of Disney thrown in here.
Riker Lynch and Allison Holker – “He’s a Pirate” from “Pirates of the Caribbean.” Mark our words when we say that this will be awesome. Riker’s got the edge to be a pirate, and this is well-suited for an upbeat dance.
Suzanne Somers and Tony Dovolani – “He’s a Tramp” from “Lady and the Tramp.” It’s been forever since we’ve seen this, but it seems fun on paper.
Noah Galloway and Sharna Burgess – “A Whole New World” from “Aladdin.” Love the song, and this could be magic if the choreography plays up the story in the lyrics.
