'Dancing with the Stars' 2015: Two routines for 'Hometown Glory'

"Dancing with the Stars" season 21 is now on week 2, and ABC teases that this will be "one of the toughest weeks of the competition this season." By the end of tonight's and tomorrow's episodes, not one but two couples will be sent home. 

The theme for this week is "Hometown Glory" wherein contestants will dance to tunes that describe their journey to becoming who they are today and songs that play a part in the life they had growing up. The couples will do two routines. Tonight, they will dance to the celebrity contestants' choice songs. 

In the episode for tomorrow, Sept. 22, the pro dancers' life stories will be the center of their performances. But not all pairs will move on to this round as one couple will be eliminated in the previous night based on the votes of the viewers and the judges from last week. 

Celebrities Kim Zolciak-Biermann, Chaka Khan, Victor Espinoza, Paula Deen and Gary Busey make up the bottom five. Zolciak-Biermann got the lowest score out of all five, which is 12 out of 30, leading media outlets to worry about her safety in the competition. 

On Tuesday, another couple will have to pack their bags, with their fates solely depending on the results of their first "Hometown Glory" performance. Not much is known about what routines the couples will do today and tomorrow or which songs they chose to shake their hips to. 

For now, it is being said that Andy Grammer and Allison Holker will perform jive first then contemporary, while Tamar Braxton and pro dance partner Val Chmerkovskiy are reportedly going for a salsa routine and a charleston performance. Carlos PenaVega and Witney Carson are taking on cha-cha-cha today and foxtrot tomorrow. Nick Carter and Sharna Burgess have jive and foxtrot to prepare. Alexa PenaVega and Mark Ballas will be dancing some salsa and rumba.

"Dancing with the Stars" season 21 week 2 airs Sept. 21 and 22.
