Dancing With the Stars Season 34 Celebrates TikTok Night with Charli D'Amelio

Season 34 of "Dancing With the Stars" is featuring its first-ever TikTok Night on September 30, with the remaining 12 celebrity couples performing dances to songs that have gone viral on TikTok. The night will open with a group dance to "Apple" by Charli XCX, featuring Season 31 champion and TikTok creator Charli D'Amelio, who will also perform multiple routines including a reunion dance with pro partner Mark Ballas. After a recent double elimination that sent home Corey Feldman and Baron Davis, competition remains intense with frontrunners like Robert Irwin and Whitney Leavitt maintaining top scores, while others like Scott Hoying and Andy Richter face the risk of elimination. The couples will perform various dance styles such as cha cha, samba, tango, quickstep, foxtrot, and jazz to popular TikTok hits including "Anxiety" by Doechii, "Savage" by Megan Thee Stallion, and "Pop Muzik" by M/Robin Scott. Fans can vote live during the simulcast, combining viewer votes with judges' scores to determine who advances or faces elimination. This TikTok-themed episode aims to blend viral social media dance trends with the show's traditional ballroom competition format, highlighting the growing influence of TikTok on popular culture and entertainment.
