00:02:39I'm Alfonso Ribeiro.

00:02:41That incredible opening number was choreographed by the one and only Ray Leeper.

00:02:47Yeah, yeah.

00:02:49And it's great to have all of you at home joining us in the ballroom.

00:03:04Get well soon, Carrie Ann.

00:03:05We love you.

00:03:06Yes, we do.

00:03:07But since the show must go on, let's welcome the stars of 2025.

00:04:34Song.

00:04:37Reality.

00:04:40Social media.

00:04:41And, of course, Hollywood.

00:04:45Plus, a new pro we'll meet in just a little bit.

00:04:50That's right.

00:04:50Well, we have assembled an amazing group to help commemorate our landmark 20th year on the air.

00:04:58Oh, yeah.

00:04:59We will be celebrating with some surprises throughout the coming weeks

00:05:02as we head toward our massive 20th birthday party later this season.

00:05:07Our couples are competing for the most sparkling prize ever created,

00:05:12our Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy.

00:05:16As always, the judges will score the performances.

00:05:20And also, as always, you will have a big say in who becomes our new champion.

00:05:43That's right.

00:05:44That's right.

00:05:44Now, so you can get to know our stars,

00:05:46we ask them to dance to their anthems,

00:05:49the songs that best express who they are.

00:05:52We'll kick things off with this trailblazing gymnast.

00:05:55It's Olympic gold medalist Jordan Childs and her partner, Ezra Sosa.

00:06:01I am a two-time Olympian and a gold medalist

00:06:05with Team USA Women's Gymnastics team.

00:06:07My teammates did really well in the show,

00:06:09so they have set the bar high,

00:06:11and the expectation is probably even higher.

00:06:16No!

00:06:18Jordan has power.

00:06:20She is spicy, and she's fierce.

00:06:22Those are all things I look for in a partner.

00:06:24What is your anthem?

00:06:25Break my soul.

00:06:26Beyoncé.

00:06:27Yes! Here we are.

00:06:28Beyoncé, queen of all queens,

00:06:30has been a huge inspiration,

00:06:32and I even got to perform to her music at the Olympics.

00:06:35She actually sent me a signed vinyl.

00:06:37Cowboy Carter.

00:06:38I'm so excited.

00:06:40It's gonna be fun.

00:06:40Girl, you're gonna own out there.

00:06:42Thanks.

00:06:42Okay, but let's see if you can salsa.

00:06:44Low and low.

00:06:45Right now, she holds herself like a gymnast,

00:06:47but we have to start getting her to believe

00:06:48that she is a dancer.

00:06:50I went too early.

00:06:51It's totally different when you're flipping

00:06:53on a four-inch piece of wood

00:06:54than trying to partner dance,

00:06:56but I'm ready for it.

00:06:57I'm getting it!

00:06:58Yay!

00:07:02Dancing the salsa

00:07:03with her partner Ezra Sosa.

00:07:05It's Jordan Charles.

00:07:06I

00:07:36Oh

00:08:06What a great way to kick off the season Jordan and Ezra with their salsa

00:08:18Yes

00:08:20You would just bounce it all over the place girl that was that was incredible

00:08:25All right, let's hear what the judges have to say Derek take it away

00:08:28Wow, just right out of the gate all the flips and tricks fantastic Jordan really amazing first dance

00:08:34The side-by-side giving that Beyonce flair. I see you. I see. Okay. Yeah, is this what we're doing now? Okay. Yeah, that's what we're doing

00:08:41I like it

00:08:43All right, so listen listen one thing I want to point out a little bit is I love

00:08:46Contemporizing and blending style so much. It's kind of my thing. I love it

00:08:49But let's be mindful moving forward that we recognize the dances keep the integrity of what Latin dancing is

00:08:54I wish there was a little bit more content of salsa in there

00:08:56But overall that was a fantastic dancing and Ezra congrats man

00:09:04Only one one more last thing real fast one more last thing real fast listen my time real fast

00:09:10Excuse me. Oh, we're taking it all the time. Go. No, so the scoring tonight. Just be mindful

00:09:15It might be a little bit lower than you're expecting because there's a long way to go

00:09:18This is a marathon all right, so we want to make sure that we leave you guys room to grow just want to point that out Bruno hit it

00:09:23But okay, I love to see a little spice girl coming out there, but yes

00:09:28Thank you. I love the beyonce references everybody loves it now

00:09:32I'm going to be tough because you know you did a lot of things well a few of them some of the dismounts were a bit wobbly

00:09:38Okay, you have to carry the heat motion through the body. You can just hit it. You have to

00:09:45Express it. Okay, that's a couple of things you have to work out, but very very good first performance

00:09:50Thank you

00:09:54Skybox since this is everyone's first night on the floor. We're being kind. There's no elimination tonight

00:10:01However, your votes and the judges scores from tonight will carry over the next week's first elimination of the season

00:10:08There's a party up there Julianne. Oh, you know it and by the way this week gets off easy, but next week we're getting serious

00:10:14Okay, Jordan Ezra first one out the gate. Are you feeling a little pressure starting off the competition?

00:10:19I'm relieved we finished like we went first. We got out of the way, but

00:10:24Honestly, it was just so much fun dancing with her. I love well speaking of Jordan

00:10:29Now you got to choose your anthem and it was to a beyonce song which she gave you permission to actually do

00:10:36What do you think beyonce would have scored that performance? I probably would think honestly

00:10:41She probably would have been just very proud. She probably would have known the score system in general

00:10:46But i'm just honored to be able to you know be able to dance to her and that she was able to clear that because

00:10:51She's somebody that ideally look up to and it was just amazing. Oh, we all look up to beyonce

00:10:57And how is it dancing with ezra your partner? Oh my gosh ezra is so amazing

00:11:01You know being able to give him this opportunity to you know dance again and just let him be him

00:11:07I think that's the biggest thing is his personality, but it's oh, I can't breathe. Oh my gosh

00:11:14It's a real thing everybody literally um it just gives me the opportunity to be myself as well

00:11:18So our connection is very there and I just love him. Yes, you guys are such a good match. Well, let's see if your match is

00:11:25equivalent to your scores

00:11:28Derek huff great first dance

00:11:30five

00:11:32Bruno tonyoli room to grow five

00:11:35All right

00:11:36That is a 10 out of 20 for jordan and ezra tonight

00:11:53This action-packed season premiere features some of the most competitive stars ever and they're coming up with their first ever dances

00:12:00Next reality tv star dylan efron and daniela katagach plus elaine hendrix and alan burston. We'll be right back

00:12:07live

00:12:20Welcome back to dancing with the stars. We'll continue our season premiere with a content creator and outdoor

00:12:26Enthusiast who gained global popularity with the hit travel series down to earth with zach efron

00:12:32It's reality tv star dylan efron and his partner daniela katagach

00:12:37oh

00:12:39You might know me from winning the traders or my thirst traps on social media i've done a lot of adrenaline junkie type things

00:12:46But this experience is gonna raise my heart rate more than anything i've ever done

00:12:55Oh i'm so happy oh my god i'm so happy you're in it

00:12:58Do you have any dance experience my whole life i've strayed against performing i was my brother's biggest fan

00:13:04He was always the star always the most charismatic so it's really natural for a younger sibling to

00:13:10Stray away from that so i'm excited to do something no one would expect well you get to start with cha-cha

00:13:16Bend your knees dylan's biggest challenge is coming out of his shell and just loosen up a little bit

00:13:21You're losing me with the hips on that i chose milkshake at calice as my anthem because this moment's all about

00:13:27Conquering this fear of dancing in public are we really doing this and what better way to do that than to just go out there and shake my ass

00:13:34Dancing the cha-cha with his partner daniela karagotch it's dylan effron

00:13:47My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard and they're like it's better than yours

00:13:52I'll teach you but i have to watch i know you wanted the thing that makes me what the guys go crazy for

00:14:04They lose their minds the way i wind i think it's a la la la la la

00:14:15Warm it up la la la la la la

00:14:19The boys are waiting la la la la la la

00:14:24Warm it up la la la la la la la

00:14:27The boys are waiting my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard and they're like it's better than yours

00:14:33Sam right it's better than yours i'll teach you but i have to charge

00:14:47Dylan and daniela with a cha-cha and the ballroom is on their feet

00:14:53That was awesome

00:14:58My man

00:14:59Yeah you were feeling yourself in the beginning there i love it i love it i think bruno's gonna like something here bruno

00:15:06You go are you trying to distract me with the pex appeal

00:15:11It's not working honey

00:15:13No it works very your shaking of the butt was first class

00:15:18This was fake by the way don't drink it because you get poisoned

00:15:22But all i have to say now seriously some moments you were very very good like the forward steps with the hip through the legs

00:15:29Then you go completely off you're on and off time all the way through you need to be consistent

00:15:35Yeah don't lose it halfway through

00:15:38Keep on the moment but don't go off time

00:15:41There you go

00:15:42Okay

00:15:43Eric

00:15:46I was pleasantly surprised i was like i didn't know what to expect and i was like oh my gosh

00:15:50She's got some fluidity in the way he's moving it was really impressive um but he's absolutely right the timing

00:15:55You lost the timing in a few places rushed got ahead of the music um and one other thing i would think about is

00:16:00Daniella is such a powerful dancer right so moving forward i want to see you step into that leading man

00:16:06Roll and and not to get overpowered by her so a little more strength a little bit more oomph and some of the dancing moving forward

00:16:11But overall what a fantastic and surprising first dance

00:16:16Great job brother great job all right head on up to julianne in the skybox as we meet our all new troop

00:24:23Mark Ballas

00:24:24You may know me from

00:24:27The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives

00:24:28I was the villain

00:24:30And then I guess

00:24:31Don't be my friend

00:24:31Okay, I don't want to be your friend

00:24:33But here

00:24:33You're going to see

00:24:34A different side of me

00:24:35Oh my god

00:24:39What's up?

00:24:40Welcome

00:24:41I have memories

00:24:42Sitting on the couch

00:24:43With my mom

00:24:43Watching Mark Ballas

00:24:44On the screen

00:24:45Full circle moment right now

00:24:47So tell me about TikTok

00:24:48When I first became a mom

00:24:49I met other women

00:24:50On TikTok

00:24:51We created this group

00:24:52Called Mom Talk

00:24:53Got it

00:24:54And then we got

00:24:54The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives

00:24:55My friend is also on the show

00:24:57Jen Affleck

00:24:58We're going to want to push each other

00:24:59But we're also going to want to beat each other

00:25:01Is there like a little rivalry there?

00:25:03Of course there is

00:25:03Why don't we play with a bit of the tango

00:25:06TikTok dances are 15 seconds maybe

00:25:09Here we're doing one minute

00:25:10To one minute 30 in heels

00:25:12Which way am I going to get to?

00:25:13I've been humbled today for sure

00:25:15We are killing you

00:25:17Yeah

00:25:17There's just so many little steps

00:25:19But bring it on, baby

00:25:21I'm ready for those blisters

00:25:22I'll take these off again

00:25:23Take them off, take them off

00:25:24Oh my god

00:25:24Dancing the tango

00:25:27With her partner Mark Ballas

00:25:29It's Whitney Levitt

00:25:30I was a ghost, I was in love

00:25:40Ha, 도와진, 하, 기 속에

00:25:44I live to die

00:25:47Cause I got too wild

00:25:49But now that's how I'm getting paid

00:25:52But that's real stage

00:26:30Mark and Whitney

00:26:38With a tango

00:26:41That has stopped the room

00:26:43That was so good

00:26:47Yes

00:26:48I saw all those

00:26:51The pivots

00:26:51And the show

00:27:01Oh, he's locked

00:27:02Lock it in

00:27:02He's locked

00:27:03Because the devil

00:27:06We're stango

00:27:07Emily tonight

00:27:09I mean, I'm sorry

00:27:11It's not just me

00:27:12It's like watching Emily Blunt

00:27:13You're acting

00:27:14Not just the dancing

00:27:15The old performance was incredible

00:27:17Elegant

00:27:18The attitude was perfect

00:27:19The content

00:27:20Thank you, Mark

00:27:21A fantastic tango

00:27:23As it should be

00:27:24No messing around

00:27:26Very, very, very high quality

00:27:29Can't wait to see you again, Emily

00:27:31I'm sure I won't be the support

00:27:33Her name is Whitney

00:27:35Okay

00:27:36All right

00:27:36Derek

00:27:37No, it's Whitney

00:27:38Sorry

00:27:38Listen

00:27:40First of all

00:27:41I love that song so much

00:27:43So I was kind of lost in the music

00:27:44I was like

00:27:44Yeah

00:27:45You could have summoned the golden Han moon

00:27:48If anybody knows what that means

00:27:49You know what it means

00:27:50Okay

00:27:50I don't know what to say

00:27:53That was so beautiful

00:27:54The neckline

00:27:54The poise

00:27:55The resistance to the body

00:27:57And that oversway

00:27:57The pivots

00:27:58So beautiful

00:27:59Of course

00:28:00Keep an eye out

00:28:01Maintain the frame

00:28:02A little more consistent

00:28:02If Carrie Ann was here tonight

00:28:05She would have absolutely

00:28:06Loved that routine

00:31:04Heed in an 8

00:31:04So Whitney's total was 15

00:31:06I know

00:32:12So my anthem is

00:36:42With her humor

00:36:43Her fashion

00:36:44Beauty

00:36:44And lifestyle tips

00:36:46It's Alex Earl

00:36:47And her partner

00:36:48Val Smirkowski

00:36:49People originally

00:36:53Got to know me

00:36:53From my

00:36:54Get ready with me videos

00:36:55Going on a little date

00:36:56So I'm trying to look

00:36:57Snatch

00:36:57The last two years

00:36:59Have been insane

00:37:01I was in a movie

00:37:01And a Super Bowl commercial

00:37:03But no one has seen

00:37:04My competitive side yet

00:37:06It's about to go down

00:37:08Hi

00:37:12Oh

00:37:12I'm shaking

00:37:13I'm so nervous

00:37:14I'm Alex

00:37:15Alex nice to meet you

00:37:16Seeing this in person

00:37:17Is crazy

00:37:18I'm such a big fan of him

00:37:19So I was trying not to freak out

00:37:20But I was like

00:37:21What is your dance experience

00:37:24Dance was my sport

00:37:25Growing up

00:37:26I actually tried starting out

00:37:28On TikTok

00:37:28By dancing

00:37:29And that got me nowhere

00:37:31This is like a dream come true

00:37:32Boom

00:37:33I like this one

00:37:34Chacha is action packed

00:37:36This is very overwhelming for her

00:37:38What am I doing wrong?

00:37:41Not following me

00:37:42My 10 year old self

00:37:43Would be floored

00:37:44I'm lost

00:37:45That's fine

00:37:46So I hope I'm able to make her proud

00:37:48Boom

00:37:48Nice

00:37:49Dancing the cha-cha

00:37:54With her partner Val Jmerkovski

00:37:56It's Alex Earle

00:37:58There's only two types of people in the world

00:38:07Women's that entertain

00:38:09And the names that I'm saying

00:38:11Well baby I'm good on a show kind of girl

00:38:15Don't let the bike see

00:38:18Gotta be first

00:38:19I'm like the union leader

00:38:22I call the shots

00:38:23I'm like the firecracker

00:38:26I make it hot

00:38:27When I put on a show

00:38:30Feel the adrenaline

00:38:32Moving through my veins

00:38:34Spotlight ready

00:38:36How can't you feel the same?

00:38:40All the lights on me

00:38:41In the center of the ring

00:38:42Just like a circus

00:38:43So I hope

00:38:44When I'm back like

00:38:45Everybody gon' trip

00:38:46Just like a circus

00:38:47So I can stand there

00:38:52Everybody let go

00:38:53We can make a dance

00:38:54All this time

00:38:55Alice and Val

00:39:02With a cha-cha

00:39:03To a Britney Spears hit

00:39:05Yes

00:39:07You did it

00:39:08You did it

00:39:09You did it

00:39:09Yes

00:39:10Fantastic

00:39:12Fantastic

00:39:13We love that

00:39:14Oh that was so good

00:39:17Very good

00:39:17Feel good?

00:39:19Yes

00:39:19I feel like I'm gonna puke

00:39:20All right Bruno

00:39:21Take it away

00:39:21No don't be worried

00:39:23Because you did very very well my darling

00:39:25And you got the legs for it

00:39:27Come on

00:39:27Look at this girl

00:39:29Stunning

00:39:30You look great

00:39:31You did everything you had to do

00:39:33It gave you a very difficult routine

00:39:34That's a tiny little thing

00:39:35You know when you dance

00:39:36It's not just like hitting one move

00:39:39The other move

00:39:40It's the fluency

00:39:41And the continuity

00:39:43And the connection

00:39:44Yeah

00:39:44Always remember

00:39:46It's like playing a scene

00:39:47You have to play off your partner

00:39:49Don't stand only in your world

00:39:52Your world does encompass everyone in here

00:39:55Yeah projection

00:39:56Sorry

00:39:57But that's true

00:39:58You translated

00:39:58Derek

00:39:59Well listen

00:40:01The good thing about this

00:40:02Is that Kiryan isn't here

00:40:03So I can get a little further away from Bruno

00:40:05Wonderful

00:40:07Well listen

00:40:08Oh no I'm in the dark

00:40:08Let me find my light

00:40:09Listen

00:40:10Sharp

00:40:10Clean

00:40:11Precise

00:40:12Powerful

00:40:13That was a really

00:40:14Really impressive first dance

00:40:16Truly

00:40:17Guys

00:40:17Not an easy routine

00:40:19The confidence

00:40:20The strength

00:40:20Just one little note

00:40:21Just be careful

00:40:22That the precision

00:40:23Doesn't turn into stiffness

00:40:24Sometimes it can get a little rigid up here

00:40:25But other than that

00:40:26Great first dance

00:40:28Beautiful

00:40:29Head on up to the skybox for your scores

00:40:31Alright

00:40:32If you haven't been taking notes

00:40:53Juliet

00:40:53Yeah and they are right here

00:40:55Okay so Alex

00:40:56I gotta know

00:40:57You got your start

00:40:58By filming videos

00:41:00In the privacy of your own home

00:41:01And now you are here

00:41:02In front of a live audience

00:41:04In front of millions of people

00:41:05Watching right now

00:41:06How do you feel

00:41:07And how does that compare

00:41:08I mean it's really exciting

00:41:09It's something I've always

00:41:10Dreamed of doing

00:41:11I think you know

00:41:12I just kind of try to ignore

00:41:13All the cameras

00:41:14That are moving around here

00:41:15But I think like the one thing

00:41:16That carries through

00:41:17Is just me being myself

00:41:19In both scenarios

00:41:19And try to keep that

00:41:21Authenticity with it

00:41:22Authenticity is key

00:41:23Let's get your scores

00:41:52And Riley Arnold

00:41:53Dance after this

00:41:54Live

00:41:54Welcome back

00:42:06Next up

00:42:07An award winning

00:42:08Singer, songwriter

00:42:09And producer

00:42:09Who has sold

00:42:10More than 13 million albums

00:42:12From Pentatonix

00:42:13It's Grammy winner

00:42:13Scott Hoying

00:42:14And his partner

00:42:15Riley Arnold

00:42:16People might know me

00:42:20From the Grammy winning

00:42:21Acapella group

00:42:22Pentatonix

00:42:22I made a career

00:42:25Out of singing

00:42:25So now it's time

00:42:26To dance

00:42:27On the stage

00:42:27To pass up

00:42:28Oh my god

00:42:33I love you

00:42:35I am so excited

00:42:37To have Riley

00:42:38I love her choreography

00:42:39I'm such a fan

00:42:40Why did you want

00:42:41To do Dancing

00:42:41With the Stars

00:42:42I just love the show

00:42:43And I'm always

00:42:44Afraid to dance

00:42:44Or I do acapella

00:42:45And you can't really

00:42:46Dance because you're

00:42:47Singing so much

00:42:47Singing is something

00:42:48I'm very comfortable with

00:42:49But dancing feels

00:42:50A lot more vulnerable

00:42:51Her tango

00:42:52It's done in frame

00:42:53Singing in a group

00:42:54Gives you a little bit

00:42:55Of a cushion

00:42:55Keep those elbows up

00:42:56It's gonna be a problem

00:42:57But with this tango

00:42:58He's gotta get used to

00:42:59Performing on his own

00:43:00So much to think about

00:43:01I am dancing to

00:43:02Abracadabra by Lady Gaga

00:43:04Because my husband

00:43:05And I did

00:43:05Abracadabra TikTok

00:43:06And she commented

00:43:07This is so sweet

00:43:08I know

00:43:09So we went and got

00:43:10The comment framed

00:43:11So hopefully we get

00:43:12Another comment

00:43:12Want to make Gaga proud

00:43:14Dancing the tango

00:43:18With his partner

00:43:19Riley Arnold

00:43:20It's Scott Hoying

00:43:22Can I do this dance

00:43:26Or die

00:43:27Abracadabra

00:43:29Abracadabra

00:43:30Abracadabra

00:43:31Abracadabra

00:43:32Pay the toll to the angels

00:43:38Drawing circles in the clouds

00:43:42Hold me in your heart tonight

00:43:46In the magic of the dark moonlight

00:43:50Save me from this empty fight

00:43:55In the game of life

00:43:58Africa, Dara, I'm one, ooh, na, na

00:44:01Abracadabra, Morta, ooh, na, na

00:44:06Abracadabra, Abracadabra, ooh, na, na

00:44:09And I told you, say, death or love tonight

00:44:15Abracadabra, Abracadabra

00:44:19Abracadabra, Abracadabra

00:44:23Scott and Riley with a tango to Abracadabra

00:44:32And the ballroom are on their feet

00:44:35The ballroom, they're loving you, Scott

00:44:37Yeah, buddy

00:44:39Great job, Riley, great job

00:44:41All right, Derek

00:44:42First of all, it's so good to see you on this ballroom floor

00:44:45We knew you had the singing chops

00:44:46But the dancing chops, man

00:44:48So impressive

00:44:49I see the side-by-side so comfortable

00:44:51Now listen, ballroom

00:44:52What makes ballroom so beautiful

00:44:53Is the discipline of it, right?

00:44:55That left arm was all over the joint

00:44:57The right one is turned in

00:44:59We gotta get the fundamentals in this

00:45:02But listen, for a week one dance

00:45:04Amazing

00:45:05Great job

00:45:06All right, Bruno

00:45:07By the way, you stole my suit

00:45:09Give it back to me right now

00:45:11You

00:45:12Listen, we love

00:45:13I love all of this Lady Gaga

00:45:15I mean, I'm the greatest fan

00:45:17Nevertheless, this is a tango

00:45:18There should be more tango in it

00:45:20And when you do it

00:45:21It's absolutely right

00:45:22You have to refine

00:45:23Yeah?

00:45:24Refine what you do

00:45:25Because it's a little bit messy

00:45:26That's the truth

00:45:28Goodbye

00:45:30Goodbye

00:45:30All right, well, goodbye

00:45:31Head on up to Julianne

00:46:43Next, a beloved actress and director

00:46:45Who starred in the hit series

00:46:48Boy Meets World

00:46:49And its spinoff

00:46:50Girl Meets World

00:46:51It's Danielle Fishel

00:46:52And her partner

00:46:53Pasha Pashkov

00:46:54Corey Matthews will always be

00:46:58Topanga's first love

00:46:59I knew it the minute I kissed him

00:47:00But I'm hoping dancing

00:47:02Will be my perfect match

00:47:03Having just survived cancer

00:47:05This is my year of yes

00:47:07And so Dancing with the Stars

00:47:10Was one of my biggest yeses

00:47:12I'm so happy

00:47:17Anybody who's ever danced with Pasha

00:47:20Raves about him

00:47:22So I'm in good hands

00:47:23Do you have any dance experience?

00:47:25No, I don't

00:47:26You don't?

00:47:26Okay

00:47:26One advantage I might have

00:47:28Is I have been performing

00:47:3030 plus years

00:47:31And I don't know how many

00:47:32Of the other younger cast members

00:47:34Have that same experience

00:47:35Alright, uh, tango?

00:47:37Tango

00:47:37Uh-huh

00:47:38Only when we cross

00:47:39I step behind, right

00:47:40My anthem is Stronger

00:47:41By Kelly Clarkson

00:47:42Sorry

00:47:43After overcoming cancer

00:47:45This song really took on

00:47:46A whole new meaning

00:47:47So dancing to it

00:47:49Is gonna be pretty emotional

00:47:50That was good

00:47:51Okay

00:47:51That was good

00:47:52Dancing with the tango

00:47:56With her partner

00:47:58Pasha Pashkov

00:47:58It's Danielle Fishel

00:48:00You know the bed feels warmer

00:48:12Sleeping here alone

00:48:16You know I dream in color

00:48:20And do the things I want

00:48:24You think you've got the best of me

00:48:27Think you've got the last now

00:48:29Then you don't know me

00:48:31Cause you're dead wrong

00:48:32What doesn't kill you

00:48:35Makes you stronger

00:48:36Stand a little slower

00:48:38Doesn't mean I'm lonely

00:48:40When I'm alone

00:48:41What doesn't kill you

00:48:42Makes you stronger

00:48:44Stand a little slower

00:48:45Doesn't mean I'm lonely

00:48:47When I'm alone

00:48:50I'm alone

00:48:51Then yell and Pasha

00:49:04Yes, so good

00:49:07First one

00:49:08That felt great, right?

00:49:10That felt amazing

00:49:11Yeah, good job

00:49:47I love you, honey

00:49:47But no

00:49:49And honestly

00:49:50That was so beautiful to watch

00:49:51It was like a breath of fresh air

00:49:52It really was

00:49:53The way you moved across that floor

00:49:55Is exactly what I like to see in a tango

00:49:57He's absolutely right though

00:49:58Watch the shoulders

00:49:59By the way

00:49:59Shoulders is going to be something

00:54:10Como cuadro

00:54:11Fri de calo

00:54:12Cuidado que nadie nos escuche

00:54:16Cuidado que nadie nos escuche

00:54:20Dead and young

00:54:27With a salsa to Bad Bunny

00:54:29Yes, yes

00:54:31Oh, she spent some time flying in this ballroom tonight

00:54:36What's it like up at that altitude?

00:54:41Very high up there

00:54:42Very high up there

00:54:43Yes, it was

00:54:44Derek, take it away

00:54:45Well, first of all

00:54:46I can't believe

00:54:47That you just had a baby

00:54:48A few months ago

00:54:49Bravo

00:54:49That is

00:54:50Like

00:54:51Amazing

00:54:53And Jan

00:54:53Welcome to the show

00:54:55My friend

00:54:55It's good to see you

00:54:56Listen

00:54:58That was a great

00:54:59Great first dance

00:55:00If I had one note

00:55:01It would be that

00:55:02Honestly

00:55:02I feel like some of the lifts

00:55:03It actually slowed the routine down

00:55:05A little bit

00:55:05When you started dancing

00:55:06I was like

00:55:07Oh, we're in it

00:55:07We're going

00:55:08So I think moving forward

00:55:09Just a little bit more dancing

00:55:11But great

00:55:11Great first dance

00:55:13Well done

00:55:13All right, Bruno

00:55:14My darling

00:55:15You spent most of the time in the air

00:55:17I got vertical just watching you

00:55:19But the thing is

00:55:21You're good enough not to do that

00:55:22Go to the steps

00:55:24Because what it does

00:55:25It stops the flow

00:55:26Once you get into it

00:55:27Go for it

00:55:28Push it

00:55:29Put some welly in it

00:55:31You know what I mean, darling

00:55:32Don't keep it all locked in

00:55:34Because you've got it

00:55:35All right

00:55:36All right

00:55:36Great job

00:58:50Chest up

00:58:51Yeah

00:58:51Posture is tricky

00:58:52Because I have scoliosis

00:58:53Okay, can we start

01:00:26All right

01:00:28Bruno

01:00:29You're putting your

01:00:30Personal spin

01:00:31Into the interpretation

01:00:33Of the tango

01:00:34It's a tango Jackson

01:00:35Isn't it

01:00:36It's a tango

01:00:37It's a new thing

01:00:38You created

01:00:38But I have to say

01:00:40Honestly

01:00:40The performance was great

01:00:42Now work on the technique

01:00:43Obviously you're a performer

01:01:07The technique

01:01:07The form

01:01:08The frame

01:01:34Juliet

01:01:34Thanks Alfonso

01:01:36And speaking of Alfonso

01:01:39Corey

01:01:39You've known him

01:01:41Since you were a teen

01:01:41Give us the tea

01:01:42Who's a better dancer

01:01:43You or Alfonso

01:01:44Come on

01:01:45Well come on now

01:01:46He's the tap dance kid

01:01:47You can't argue with that

01:01:49He was winning Tonys

01:01:51When I was still in

01:01:53Gremlins

01:01:53Well you're the comeback king

01:01:56So I'm just saying

01:01:57Thank you

01:01:57Okay

01:01:58So you said that you had scoliosis

01:02:00What is this experience like?

01:02:03Well you know what

01:02:03I have to be honest

01:02:04This is such a reward for me

01:02:06Because honestly

01:02:07I was thinking to myself

01:02:08How do I make myself better?

01:02:11How do I improve?

01:02:12And when I start hitting my middle age

01:02:13Which is going to happen

01:02:14In like a decade or two

01:02:15What do I do to improve my form?

01:02:19Because I have terrible posture

01:02:21I've had it since I was a kid

01:02:22And this is like a gift

01:02:23Landing in my lab

01:02:25That is helping me

01:02:26To fix a problem

01:02:27That I've always wanted to better

01:02:29So thank you

01:02:30That's so beautiful Corey

01:02:32And I mean

01:02:33I believe it

01:02:34Dance skills

01:02:34That's for sure

01:02:35Well let's get your scores

01:02:37Derek Huff

01:02:39I mean well after that

01:04:07My partner is a superstar

01:04:09This season is stacked

01:04:11But I think I got a player

01:04:12So what made you decide

01:04:13To do Dancing with the Stars

01:04:14I've never done ballroom before

01:04:15So it's such a beautiful opportunity

01:04:17To be able to actually get trained

01:04:19And I've seen the way

01:04:20The contestants

01:04:20Snatch

01:04:21I'm very in touch

01:04:23With my body

01:04:23And these dance styles

01:04:24Really allow for femininity

01:04:26And I'm excited

01:04:27To experience that

01:04:28Tango

01:04:28Is low and flat

01:04:30Lauren's biggest dance challenge

01:04:33Will be the technicality of it

01:04:35And archback

01:04:35You're in a group

01:04:37People tend to associate you

01:04:38With said group

01:04:39But I'm really excited

01:04:40For people to get to know me

01:04:41Outside of that

01:04:42And won

01:04:43That was the best round yet

01:04:44Yeah

01:04:44Dancing the Tango

01:04:48With her partner

01:04:49Brandon Armstrong

01:04:50It's Lauren Horegi

01:04:51In case you haven't noticed

01:05:08That everybody's tired

01:05:12And healing from somebody

01:05:15For something we don't see just right

01:05:19Boy, tell me what you're listed on

01:05:23Come on and walk this way

01:05:26Through the spine

01:05:27And if you find yourself

01:05:30In a dark situation

01:05:32You put on your light

01:05:33And be like

01:05:36Yes

01:05:37Be your friends

01:05:38Stay up with your chest

01:05:40And

01:05:42Be your best

01:05:56With a Tango

01:05:58Yes, so good

01:06:00So good

01:06:02Yeah, she got a standing O

01:06:04In the ballroom

01:06:05I just love the fact

01:06:06That y'all would

01:06:07Even when you separated

01:06:08Y'all were doing Tango moves

01:06:09I love it

01:06:10I love it

01:06:11I love it

01:06:11Derek

01:06:12Wow

01:06:12Lauren

01:06:14That was

01:06:14I mean

01:06:15That was really good

01:06:16It was elegant

01:06:20It was sophisticated

01:06:20It was elegant

01:06:21There was texture

01:06:22In your movement

01:06:23It was just really beautiful

01:06:25Your frame was consistent

01:06:26Throughout

01:06:27It was wonderful

01:06:28One little note

01:06:29If I had to give

01:06:29And I'm blinking red over there

01:06:30Is stick the landing

01:06:32The last dip

01:06:33Yeah

01:06:33Just the legs were a little

01:06:34You know

01:06:35Could have been a little

01:06:36More elongated

01:06:37But overall

01:06:37Holy

01:06:38You put us all on notice

01:06:40Tonight

01:06:40Alright

01:06:41Oh yeah

01:06:42Very, very well done

01:06:44Once you're in full flow

01:06:46You have a wonderful

01:06:47Wonderful fluidity

01:06:48An ease of movement

01:06:49That looks very, very good

01:06:51Don't stop that

01:06:52Because when you stop it

01:06:54The old thing

01:06:54Kind of loses its impact

01:06:56And always finish

01:06:58And move cleanly

01:06:59You know

01:06:59A tiny, tiny little thing

01:07:02But listen

01:07:02Well done

01:07:03Thank you

01:07:04Well done

01:08:24For many years

01:08:25Our next star

01:08:27As the right hand man

01:08:28Of Conan O'Brien

01:08:29He's also starred

01:08:31In movies

01:08:36Andy Richter

01:08:37And his partner

01:08:38Emma Slater

01:08:38I was Conan O'Brien's

01:08:42Sidekick

01:08:43For about 3 decades

01:08:44But I'm also an actor

01:08:45I somehow managed

01:08:46To be dance avoidant

01:08:48Throughout my entire career

01:08:49The time is up

01:08:51On that I guess

01:08:52Hello

01:08:56I got Emma

01:08:58I got Emma and I feel much better

01:09:00She just seems like

01:09:01A really positive person

01:09:03What do you think

01:09:04You're most nervous for?

01:09:05My legs holding up

01:09:07Some of these people

01:09:09Have never looked like

01:09:10Idiots on TV

01:09:11That part of it

01:09:14I'm not afraid of

01:09:15Well no I should face you

01:09:17Well no I should face you

01:09:17Cha cha cha

01:09:18Fast footwork

01:09:19Might be difficult for Andy

01:09:20Cha cha

01:09:21But he's giving me so much effort

01:09:24And that's all you can ask for

01:09:25Do it again

01:09:25Look how much that has improved

01:09:27I don't think I'm gonna be

01:09:28The best dancer here

01:09:30Wah

01:09:30There you go

01:09:31But I know how important

01:09:33It is to sell it

01:09:34So I don't mind peacocking

01:09:36Let's do it

01:09:37Yes

01:09:38Dancing the cha cha

01:09:41With his partner

01:09:43Emma Slater

01:09:45Don't you ever feel sad

01:09:59Lean on me

01:10:01When times are bad

01:10:03When the day comes

01:10:05And go down

01:11:18I mean the timing, timing, timing, timing

01:11:21It was, you were in another time zone from Emma

01:11:24In spite of her screaming all the way through

01:13:56I am a health and wellness teacher

01:14:16Do you have any dance experience?

01:14:17I used to be a dancer

01:14:18I had to stop because I broke my hip all the way through

01:14:21How did that happen?

01:14:22Overuse

01:14:23That's crazy

01:14:24That's crazy

01:14:25Crazy

01:14:26Do you know any cha cha?

01:14:27I can follow along, wait until I...

01:14:44This was her life until she got injured

01:14:46So she's just gonna give it everything she has

01:14:48And I'm proud of her

01:14:49Very proud of her

01:14:50I'm struggling

01:14:51It's okay

01:14:52Dance feeds my soul

01:14:53And I like doing physically challenging things

01:14:55I think that's one of the reasons I've had so many kids

01:16:27So good

01:16:28So good

01:16:29Alright, Derrick, take it away

01:16:30I mean that was the best cha cha

01:16:31I have seen

01:16:32from a mother of seven

01:16:33That's for sure

01:16:34Wow

01:16:35That was incredible.

01:16:37I mean, so sharp, so precise.

01:16:39Obviously, you have some Latin dance experience.

01:16:41But seeing you on this floor, it really just

01:16:43makes me so happy to see you come back out here.

01:16:45How does it feel?

01:16:47It feels good.

01:16:48I'm very happy.

01:16:49It's very emotional.

01:16:50That's amazing.

01:16:50Well, listen, so happy to have you here.

01:16:52And by the way, I keep seeing my dad in the eyes.

01:16:54I'm like, wait, never mind.

01:16:54That's Alec, because he looks just like my dad.

01:16:57I think I'm having daddy issues tonight.

01:16:59I'm going to be honest with you.

01:17:00What's going on?

01:17:02I have no clue.

01:17:02I know one thing I know that's going on.

01:17:05You went for it like a fury, and you won.

01:17:08I'm telling you, my darling, apart from the precision,

01:17:10the sharpness, the foot placement, delicious.

01:17:14You played with them.

01:17:15You put light and shade into the performance.

01:17:19This is the things I like to see.

01:17:21You know, when you use the dance as a conversation, first time out,

01:17:25I can't wait to see what you're going to do again.

01:17:47Um, Ellaria, Clem, I'm going to go off script a little bit,

01:17:52because I saw that you were getting a little emotional downstairs.

01:17:55Where was that emotion coming from?

01:17:57I mean, I said goodbye.

01:17:59I'm sorry, my mouth is so dry.

01:18:01I said goodbye to this 16 years ago, because I broke my hip.

01:18:37The Baldwin family just going nuts over there.

01:18:39It's so great.

01:18:40There is one more dance in our season premiere before voting closes.

01:18:44Will our wildlife conservationists tame the judges?

01:18:47We'll find out when Robert Irwin and Whitney Carson try to capture the vibe of the jive live.

01:19:03Welcome back to Dancing with the Stars.

01:19:06And the final dance of our season premiere.

01:19:09Ten years ago, this star's sister, Bindi, won the Mirabal Trophy with this guy right here.

01:19:15This guy.

01:19:16It's wildlife conservationist Robert Irwin and his partner, Whitney Carson.

01:19:24Crocs are my comfort zone.

01:19:26Go.

01:19:27Dancing is not.

01:19:28Coming to America when my sister, Bindi, won Dancing with the Stars, I thought one day

01:19:35that's going to be me.

01:19:36So being here now, honestly, feels like I'm coming home.

01:19:40What have you been doing?

01:19:52My life has really centered around my mission to be an advocate for the natural world.

01:19:57Legacy has always been such an important part of my life.

01:19:59Hey, thank you for helping me.

01:20:01Not only continuing a legacy that my dad started, but also creating my own.

01:20:06I want to inspire people.

01:20:07We're going to start with some jive.

01:20:09Jive is a really challenging first dance.

01:20:11A one.

01:20:12Sorry, I'll do that again.

01:20:13But his positivity is so fun.

01:20:16To do this dance, you have got to go for it.

01:20:19What?

01:20:19And that, I know I can do.

01:20:23Dancing the job with his partner, Whitney Carson, it's Robert Irwin.

01:20:32Reaching for a running

01:20:34Head out on the highway

01:20:37Looking for adventure

01:20:40In whatever comes our way
