'Dancing with the Stars' season 22 week 5: New pairings emerge, Maksim Chmerkovskiy hits the judge panel in 'America's Switch Up'

"Dancing with the Stars" season 22, week 5 is all about America's Switch Up, which means that after four weeks with the same pro partner, the nine remaining celebrity contestants will dance with a new partner for this week.

Fans of "Dancing with the Stars" had a say in which contestant ends up with which dance pro, so it's going to be another exciting night and one that will surely be a great follow-up to the colorful "Disney Night" last week.

To make it more electrifying, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, the champ who took home the coveted Mirror all Trophy in "Dancing with the Stars" season 18, will be joining the judge panel for the switch up. Award-winning singer songwriter James Bay will also serenade viewers this week.

In "Dancing with the Stars" season 22, week 5, Antonio Brown parts ways with Sharna Burgess and gets Karina Smirnoff for Switch Up. Burgess is paired with Nyle DiMarco, whose original partner Peta Murgatroyd got Doug Flutie for her partner.
