'DWTS' 80s Night: Chrishell Stause Has 'No Chill' Performing to NKOTB
It’s ’80s Night on Dancing With the Stars, and Chrishell Stause is fangirling hard over her love for New Kids on the Block!
The Selling Sunset star and her pro partner, Gleb Savchenko, pulled out all the stops Monday Night, rocking ’80s-chic costumes as they danced a Cha Cha to NKOTB’s “You Got It (The Right Stuff).”
“I have been a Blockhead since they hit the scene when I was 5 years old. Truly obsessed,” Chrishell gushed in her ET guest blog ahead of the performance. “The little girl in me is geeking out. She has no chill.”
“I know all the words, every single song,” she added in the video package that aired before her dance. “Growing up, Donnie was my favorite. I have this one video where he’s singing to me and I flipped out. I am not dancing this for myself this week; I and dancing this dance for the Kids.”

Judges Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Tonioli and Derek Hough all seemed to be fans of the dance, but still gave the dance duo honest critiques. Derek Hough said, “You guys looked amazing tonight,” while Bruno Tonioli said, “Only you two can turn a Cha Cha into Dirty Dancing!“
Chrishell and Gleb received a total score of 19/30 for the performance.
Leading up to ’80s Night, Chrishell couldn’t contain her excitement over paying homage to NKOTB. She shared on social media that she’s been a huge fan of Jonathan and Jordan Knight, Joey McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg and Danny Wood since the beginning, and has even snapped some pics with them at concerts and events over the years.
“#BLOCKHEADS I need you!!!! When I say I am a fan of @nkotb I mean I waited outside the Today show overnight to be able to see their comeback performance kind of fan!

You get the point-ha!” Chrishell captioned a series of Instagram pics. “I have NO chill that I get to dance to The Right Stuff for #80s night on @dancingabc!! PLEASE VOTE!!!”
“Not featured in the video is after @donniewahlberg sang ‘your pretty face is the prettiest I’ve seen’ to me (that is ME in the video I promise, video sucks) I died and had to be resuscitated💀” she added. “Pic with Richard Simmons was just a fun #TB bc I am decked out in my @jordanknightofficial shirt if you look close … also @glebsavchenkoofficial murdered the choreography AGAIN. 🙏🏼🙏🏼 So excited!!!”
