DWTS is throwing a huge birthday celebration on Tuesday, November 11, and you’re invited! ABC has big surprises in store, including the unexpected return of former host Tom Bergeron.
The festivities celebrate the current and former cast. Derek Hough has a special opening number planned to pay tribute to the history of the show. In between the partying, the remaining Season 34 contestants take the dance floor with the hope of surviving elimination.
A lot of past celebrities return, including Bachelor star Joey Graziadei in an exciting role.
Bachelor Star Joey Graziadei Returns In Special Role
For the first time ever in the history of DWTS, the Season 34 contestants leave their partners behind and take the floor with someone new. The six remaining contestants team up with a former champion in a relay dance. Whitney Leavitt has immunity from performing the relay.
Social media influencer Alix Earle took to TikTok to reveal her partner for the special dance. She’s paired with Season 33 champ Joey Graziadei! The pairs dance a Quickstep, Jive, or a Viennese Waltz. The winners will get two points added to their total scores.
Other Current Contestant & Champions Relay Pairings
Joey Graziadei isn’t the only champ from Bachelor Nation attending the party. DWTS Season 29 winner Kaitlyn Bristowe teams up with comedian Andy Richter on the dance floor.
In a surprising twist, Robert Irwin’s partner isn’t his sister, Bindi Irwin, who won 21. Instead, he teams up with Season 32 champ Xochitl Gomez. The other returning champions are Rashad Jennings, Apolo Anton Ohno, and Rumer Willis.

“NO ONE SHOULD BE SLEEPING ON THE STREETS.” Bradley Walsh has reportedly given away every penny of his £2 million bonus and sponsorship earnings — not for publicity, not for praise, but to build 150 housing units and fund 300 emergency shelter beds for people with nowhere to go. Those close to him say the decision was made quietly, without cameras or announcements. “Bradley didn’t see it as charity,” one source revealed. “He saw it as responsibility.” At a time when most stars protect their wealth, Walsh’s gesture has stunned fans — not because of its size, but because of its sincerity.
