The Dancing With the Stars season 32 cast is filled with fans of Taylor Swift, just like us. ABC has officially confirmed that there will be a Taylor Swift Night on Tuesday, November 21. During this special night, the final six couples will dance to celebrate Taylor Swift's music. In addition to the celebrities and their professional dance partners, famous choreographer Mandy Moore will join Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Tonioli, and Derek Hough as a guest judge. Mandy Moore has previously worked with Taylor Swift on her highly successful Eras Tour, which is currently on its international leg.
No further details, like which songs will be included, have been revealed just yet.
Confirmation of DWTS’ Swift night comes weeks after Peta Murgatroyd accidentally spilled the tea last month.
She informed Billboard on October 4 that there will be a Taylor Swift week here. She asked if it was permissible to disclose this information. Although she did not provide any additional details, her fellow professional dancer Artem Chigvintsev hinted at the Swift-inspired night during an appearance on the "Nikki & Brie Show" podcast with his wife, Nikki Garcia, and his current DWTS partner, Charity Lawson.

Garcia, 39, asked Lawson, 27, in September if she is as excited as he is for another upcoming night, this time featuring Taylor Swift. While Lawson admitted she is not a huge fan, she still has an appreciation for the musician.
"I really love her, so yeah. I'm extremely thrilled about it," expressed the former Bachelorette star. She disclosed that she had requested to sing a Taylor Swift song during week 1 of DWTS and her proposal was rejected. "They told me I couldn't do it."
Chigvintsev, who is 41 years old, interjected, suggesting, "Perhaps they declined because..." without completing his thought, insinuating a potential surprise.

DWTS season 32 has incorporated a variety of themed weeks. Along with the traditional Most Memorable Year Night, they also celebrated Monster Night on Halloween, featuring impressive costumes. The season included other theme nights such as Disney Night, Latin Night, and Motown Night.
Ariana Madix, a star from Vanderpump Rules, expressed her connection to Motown during the October 10 episode. She shared that it was her father's beloved genre of music. Unfortunately, her father passed away in 2013 and never witnessed her appearance on Vanderpump Rules. Thus, performing on such a grand stage for DWTS would be a dream come true for her late father.
