Ima Let You Finish, But Taylor Swift Performs on Dancing With the Stars

After a night of Waltz, Jitterbug and the first competition Mambo group routine, the remaining nine couples face their first Dance-Off double elimination as the eighth and ninth couples eliminated from the competition are announced, on “Dancing with the Stars the Results Show,” TUESDAY, OCTOBER 27 (9:00-10:01 p.m., ET), on ABC .

Taylor Swift, who sold more records in 2008 than any artist in the world, will make a very special appearance on “Dancing with the Stars the Results Show” on Tuesday, October 27,  to premiere a brand-new single, “Jump, Then Fall,” as well as perform her worldwide chart-topping hit, “Love Story,” accompanied by professional dancers Cheryl Burke, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, Tony Dovolani, Jonathan Roberts, Edyta Sliwinska, and Anna Trebunskaya.

Cuban superstars Tiempo Libre take to the “Dancing with the Stars” stage performing “Tu Conga Bach” from their new Sony Masterworks album entitled “Bach in Havana.”

In a “Dancing with the Stars” first, the couple with the lowest combined scores will be eliminated, while the second and third couple with lowest combined scores will face the judges one last time in a Dance-Off to save their spot in the competition. The two couples will perform a short dance routine of their choosing that they have secretly prepared for the Dance-Off, and the judges’ scores for the Dance-Off routine will determine their fate.

By evening’s end two couples will be eliminated, as determined by a combination of the judges’ scores and viewers’ votes, along with the rankings from the Dance-Off dance. Who among the following nine teams will leave the ballroom floor?
