It was a night of nostalgia and competition on Dancing With the Stars Season 34 as the show marked its 20th Birthday Party special. Co-hosts Alfonso Ribeiro and Julianne Hough led the celebrations, with former host Tom Bergeron returning as a guest judge.

The semifinals of Dancing With the Stars 2025 saw the remaining couples perform routines honoring two decades of the show’s iconic moments. Judges—Ribeiro, Hough, Bergeron, and permanent judge Derek Hough—scored each performance, which were combined with America’s votes to determine who would leave the competition tonight. Special appearances from past professional dancers added a nostalgic flair, while the ballroom reflected the celebratory mood of the 20th anniversary. Emotional performances led to standing ovations and tears on the dance floor.
Alfonso Ribeiro commented on the emotional weight of the night:
“It’s incredible to see how much talent has graced this stage over 20 years. Tonight feels like a reunion and a reminder of why we all love to dance.”
Tom Bergeron, making a guest return, praised the contestants:
“The energy in this ballroom is electric—these celebrities are giving it everything, and the audience can feel it.”
Fans took to social media sharing predictions about who might be eliminated next, creating a buzz across platforms.
Week 9 carries significant weight as the competition nears the semifinals. The elimination will shape the final rounds and could influence which contestants are favorites to win Dancing With the Stars Season 34. Analysts note that strong performances tonight may shift audience voting patterns, putting extra pressure on the remaining couples.
Week 10 will feature the semifinals, with remaining contestants performing two routines each, including a freestyle.
