Looking for fantasy football — but for Dancing with the Stars? Us Weekly has you covered.
Just in time for the Tuesday, September 16, premiere of the ABC competition series, join Us Weekly’s first-ever Dancing With the Stars fantasy league, powered by Bracketology.
Competing against Us editors and fellow DWTS superfans, each week you will predict which couples you think will survive the elimination, ranking your picks based on confidence.
ICYMI, season 34’s cast is star-studded, featuring Robert Irwin, Alix Earle, Whitney Leavitt, Jen Affleck, Dylan Efron, Corey Feldman, Hilaria Baldwin, Andy Richter, Danielle Fishel, Jordan Chiles, Baron Davis, Elaine Hendrix, Scott Hoying and Lauren Jauregui. Plus, cohost Alfonso Ribeiro has already promised it will be one to remember.
“I knew it was going to be a great season,” he told Us earlier this month. “I mean, it’s really incredible, the amount of incredible personalities. We haven’t seen this yet, but great dancing, great stories to tell [and] nostalgia. There’s a lot of everything coming.”
In addition to the celebs, season 34 features all of your favorite pros — including returning cast member Mark Ballas.
“I love the show and I’ve been able to perform on it a couple times since I stopped,” Ballas told Us before shedding light on his decision to come back. “I got to do the awesome tango with Derek [Hough], me and Charli [D’Amelio] did a victory lap. I got to guest judge last year. … I’m like, ‘I think I got a couple more in the tank.’ I want my son to watch me do this. Excited to be back.”
By joining Us Weekly’s Bracketology league, you’ll get access to more exclusive insights, chances to win fun prizes and all the bragging rights when your favorite duo dances their way to the finale.
In addition to filling out your weekly bracket, we’ll also have side prompts like which Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star will last in the ballroom longer — Whitney or Jen — and who will score the first 10 of the season.
It’s totally free, super easy to play and yes, it’s way more fun than just yelling at your TV when you don’t agree with Carrie Ann Inaba, Derek Hough or Bruno Tonioli’s scores.
So do you think you know who is going to take home the mirrorball trophy? Head to Bracketology.tv and join the Official Us Weekly league now. Brackets for week one close ahead of the Tuesday, September 23, broadcast. We’ll see you in the ballroom!
