MediaWorks and BBC Worldwide ANZ announced that hit series Dancing with the Stars will add even more sparkle to TV3’s stellar local line up. The series will see 10 Kiwi stars – to be announced at a later date – ready to rumba and battle it out to take home the coveted mirror-ball trophy.

Each week, the celebrities will be pushed out of their comfort zones and endure hours of gruelling rehearsals to master demanding choreography and entertaining performances.

Under the scrutiny of the judging panel, the stars and their professional dance partners will have to prove they have mastered all the moves on the dancefloor.

The judges’ scores, combined with the viewer vote, will determine who wins the trophy and a place in the Dancing with the Stars hall of fame.
