Dancing with the Stars (Brazilian TV series)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dança dos Famosos is a dancing contest airing on a tv program called "Domingão do Faustão" at Rede Globo in Brazil.
The concept of the show is to pair a celebrity with a professional dancer in an attempt to win a high score from a panel of five judges and then a high number of votes from the audience. The person who receives the lowest score is eliminated.
The panel of judges in both seasons changes every week.
