Dancing with the Stars
Local celebrities in New Zealand try out their dancing shoes in this Kiwi version of the popular show Strictly Come Dancing, that pairs celebrities with professional dancers. They have to complete different types of dancing such as Foxtrot, Quickstep, Tango, Waltz, Cha Cha Cha, Jive, Paso Doble, Rumba and Samba. The judges and the audience vote on the couples performances and then the team with the least number of scores is eliminated until only two couples remain. The final two will then have to compete against each other in order to win Dancing with the Stars.
Eight celebrities and their professional partners train in order to take home the title of Dancing With The Stars. In this non-elimination night they must perform either the Waltz or the Cha Cha Cha.
On the second round, the teams performed either Rumba or Quickstep in order to win the votes from both the judges and the audience. By the end, the votes are tallied and it's time to say goodbye to the first team.
On tonights episode, the seven remaining teams performed wither Jive or Tango and in which another team fails to gain enough votes and became the second team to be eliminated from the competition.
