ABC celebrates the 500th episode of Dancing With the Stars on Tuesday night with a new two-hour episode that will test the contestants like never before.

Only six stars and their professional partners remain: NFL star Danny Amendola and Witney Carson, The Bachelor alum Joey Graziadei and Jenna Johnson, NBA star Dwight Howard and Daniella Karagach, actress and singer Chandler Kinney and Brandon Armstrong, Olympic rugby player Ilona Maher and Alan Bersten and Olympic gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik and Rylee Arnold.

While stars and their partners typically have a full week to prepare for their dance, they’ve been thrown the ultimate curveball with the Instant Dance Challenge.

During tonight’s episode, they will discover the dance they will perform minutes before going to the ballroom, in this new and brutal challenge that will test their dancing mettle.

You can follow all the action in our Dancing With the Stars live blog below.

Joey and Jenna’s scores

Joey and Jenna earn a score of 28 out of 30 from judges Carrie Ann Inaba, Derek Hough and Bruno Tonioli. Awesome

Carrie is hated…again

Perfectly timed… Carrie Ann Inaba is booed by the crowd. His counter trick is hilarious. At least she’s consistent…

Bruno makes me laugh

There really is no one like Bruno. It’s so crazy.

Awesome

Very smooth and elegant opening dance by Joey and Jenna. Great piano capture.

What are they rehearsing?

Host Julianne Hough said they’ll learn the dance they’re doing just five minutes before doing it… so what exactly are they rehearsing beforehand? Strange…

Joey and Jenna start

Joey Grazaidei and Jenna Johnson go first, as they talk about their favorite dances in DWTS history. They perform a contemporary dance in white costumes.

“Record numbers”

I love how they keep saying people vote in “record numbers” every week… show us the numbers! #Just kidding #A little

Trivia

I didn’t realize Crazy In Love was the song used in the first season. Wild. The more you know, they say…

Great start!

The opening number was quite impressive with sibling duo Derek Hough and Julianne Hough leading the way.

Opening number

The 500th episode begins with a dazzling dance number choreographed by DWTS professionals, which immediately gets the crowd cheering, set to Beyoncé’s Crazy in Love.
