One of the front-runners of the competition, Corbin Bleu, will tackle the paso doble.  His partner, Karina Smirnoff, promises it will have an international flavor to it.

She tells ABC News Radio, “We’re going to take it all the way to Spain.  It’s going to be like a real paso doble.  Not going to bring anything modern into it.  He’s going to turn into a matador.”

Head judge Len Goodman will sit out this week’s show.  Former Dancing with the Stars pro and Mirror Ball champ Julianne Hough will fill in for him.

Pro dancer Tony Dovolani, who’s partnered with Leah Remini, has mixed feelings about the temporary switch.  He says he respects Goodman’s opinion “immensely,” but he’s excited to welcome back Hough because “she’s a sweetheart and I’ve known her for years and she’s got a lot of knowledge, and it would be nice to have a fresh perspective.”

Dancing with the Stars airs at 8 p.m. Eastern time on ABC.
