He was a fan-favorite in paradise and now we'll see if he wins over America in the ballroom. Amabile is paired with Jenna Johnson this season and their first dance together is set to be a Quickstep to "Fish Out of Water" by Leo Soul.

Tinashe is a popular singer and songwriter and now she can add dancer to that list, but we're thinking the entertainer will have a good shot and being the winner this season … provided her rhythm in her vocals carries down to her feet. She is paired with new pro dancer Brandon Armstrong and the duo are performing a Jive to "I'm a Lady" by Meghan Trainor for their first performance of the season. Their second dance of the season will be another Jive to "Yes" by Merry Clayton.
