Kym Johnson News

"Episode 1504 & 1504A" - Monday night the competition heats up with world famous choreographer and recording artist Paula Abdul joining the judges in the ballroom as a special guest judge. For the first time in the show's history, the couples will perform new dance styles that their competitors have chosen for them, MONDAY, OCTOBER 15 (8:00-10:01 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television network.

Tonight on DANCING WITH THE STARS, Season 9 champion and Broadway vet Donny Osmond returns to the ballroom performing a duet with international recording star Susan Boyle. Their duet, 'This Is the Moment,' will be accompanied by dancers Kym Johnson, Tristan McManus, Anna Trebunskya and Henry Byalikov. Before that though - we've got a first listen to the track!

During the first week of October 2012, ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live grew for the 5th week in a row in both Total Viewers (+3%) and Adults 18-49 (+6%) to score its best numbers in 4 months - since the weeks of 6/11/12 and 6/18/12, respectively. JKL also grew over the same week last year in both viewers (+10%) and young adults (+1%), standing as the only broadcast talk show in late-night to grow year over year in either Nielsen measure.

It's time, once again, dear reader, to give the boot to another All-Star. But don't flash those jazz hands too hard quite yet - there are still months to go until the finale. Tonight's somewhat of a shocker elimination episode featured a whole lot of the old, including performances from last season's Katherine Jenkins, as well as Placido Domingo (guess I wasn't cool enough to know who that was before tonight), and Cher Llyod. But also some new.

On last night's episode of DANCING WITH THE STARS, the 'All-Stars' were given a choice between the jive and quickstep. BroadwayWorld brings a look at their performances below!

Has anyone noticed the cute, shameless plugging the contestants of DANCING WITH THE STARS partake in on Twitter? These guys are synergistic, cross-promoting, social media moguls!

Let's all take a moment, and let out a collective and exhaustive, "UGHHHHH." Dancing with the Stars is back. For the 15th time. I know, guys. I'm sorry. Just when you think the airwaves can't get even more clogged with televised rot.
