Tonight, the three remaining celebrities and their professional dancing partners will face off for the final time. Mya and Dmitry Chaplin should turn in the best scores, but Kelly Osbourne and Louis Van Amstel as well as Donny Osmond and Kym Johnson have a fan base and can turn in good scores as well. Each couple will perform three more dances. They will each perform a ballroom or Latin dance, a freestyle dance and the megamix challenge. Mya and Chaplin will be performing a paso doble, something they did as part of team paso doble during week 7 of competition to Joan Jett's "I Hate Myself for Loving You" for a score of 24. Osbourne and Van Amstel and Osmond and Johnson competed on the winning Team Tango. Kelly Osbourne and Louis Van Amstel will be dancing the Argentine tango. Mya and Chaplin and Osmond and Johnson performed the Argentine tango during week five with Osmond and Johnson getting a 29 and Mya and Chaplin earning a 27. Donny Osmond and Kym Johnson will face the cha cha cha. Mya and Chaplin earned a 29 last week with her cha cha cha and Osbourne and Van Amstel earned a 27 (also last week). The megamix is a group dance number where all three couples will perform at the same time and the mix part is that the dance styles will be the Viennese waltz, the samba and the jive. If you need a refresher, here's how the couples scored during their individual dances for these: Viennese waltz Donny Osmond and Kym Johnson: 26 week 8 Kelly Osbourne and Louis Van Amstel: 23 week 2 Mya and Dmitry Chaplin: 21 (week 1 night 2) Samba Mya and Dmitry Chaplin: 30 week 8 Donny Osmond and Kym Johnson: 26 week 9 Kelly Osbourne and Louis Van Amstel: 20 week 3 Jive Mya and Dmitry Chaplin: 27 week 2 Kelly Osbourne and Louis Van Amstel: 26 week 8 Donny Osmond and Kym Johnson: 25 week 2 The couples will be ranked by the judges for their performances during the megamix and to make things fairer, the professional dancers will not be choreographing the piece. The piece will be choreographed by Nick Kosovich. Kosovich was one of the professional dancers during season 2 when he was matched with Tatum O'Neal, and again during season 3, when his partner was Vivica A. Fox. O'Neal and Kosovich were eliminated during week 2 and Fox and Kosovich were eliminated during week 4. Then, of course, there are the freestyle dances where the style, music and moves are up to the couple. Carrie Ann Inaba, the lift monitor, won't we taking points off for feet leaving the floor. Anything can happen. Certainly, Mya has the moves and is probably the best all-around dancer, but the best dancer doesn't always win and the best both couples (Osmond and Johnson and Osbourne and Van Amstel) have outscored Mya, mostly as a matter of the judges taste for the choreographic choices. That, of course if half the story, because good dancers have been eliminated such as Aaron Carter and Joanna Krupa, so the audience votes will also count. Tuesday, besides Whitney Houston performing, season 2 competitor Jerry Rice will take on Michael Irvin and martial artist Mark Dacascos will face off UFC champ Chuck Liddell. The Muppets will also make another appearance, having appeared during week 2 to help with Carter and Karina Smirnoff's quickstep. Remember: Viewers can cast their votes by phone during (but not before) and up to 30 minutes after the performance show ends.
