Get ready for the sequins and confetti! Season 34 of Dancing With the Stars is shining off the mirrorball trophy as a new batch of ballroom newbies gets ready to show off their moves on live TV when the competition kicks off Tuesday, Sept. 16, and Billboard has the exclusive details on not only which dances the cast will be doing, but also the hit songs they’ve paired with their performances!
The celebrities — which this season includes Fifth Harmony’s Lauren Jauregui, Pentatonix singer Scott Hoying, musician-actor Corey Feldman, Traitors season three champ Dylan Efron and Hilaria Baldwin — have chosen some hits by pretty big artists with which to begin their quest in the ballroom bash. The show’s live band will be playing hits from megastars such as Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga, KPop Demon Hunters‘ HUNTR/X, Britney Spears, Bad Bunny and more.

Though the Olympic gold medalist’s premiere episode song hasn’t been revealed, the gymnast offered a clue about what she likes to show off her moves to in video introducing the cast that Dancing With the Stars also shared exclusively with Billboard. “I would love to dance to anything that’s [Beyoncé’s] Cowboy Carter ’cause it just brings so much hype and energy — just like me!” gushed Chiles in the clip, which you can watch below.
Season 34 of Dancing With the Stars will once again be cohosted by Alfonso Ribeiro and Julianne Hough, and judged by Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Tonioli and Derek Hough. The season premiere kicks off Sept. 16 at 8 p.m. local on ABC and Disney+, and the next day on Hulu.
