Information About

Dancing With The Stars




The show pairs a number of Celebrities with professional Ballroom Dancers , who each week compete by performing dances, which are then given scores by a panel of judges. Viewers are given a certain amount of time to place votes on their favorite dancers, either by telephone or (in some of the shows) by the Internet. The couple with the lowest combined score (judges plus viewers) is eliminated and does not go on to the next week. This process continues until there are only two couples left, at which point one couple is declared the champion.
