Just one more celebrity and dancer pairing remain and depends on viewer's votes. Voting ends on Friday, Aug. 24 at 12 p.m. EST. The 13th cast member and their dance partner will be revealed on "Good Morning America" on Aug. 27.

In addition to many firsts for this season of "DWTS," the boy band 98 Degrees will reunite on the show for a performance. The band consists of "DWTS" return contestant Drew Lachey, his brother Nick, Justin Jeffre, and Jeff Timmons.

Although it has been years since he won the Mirror Ball Trophy during season two of "DWTS," Lachey said that "All-Stars" will prove his worth.

"They're talking about how intense the show is now and how much harder it's gotten and there might be some truth to that, but I kind of take that as a personal challenge for me to come out and represent and do well," said the singer and contestant, according to the Associated Press.

"DWTS: All-Stars" returns to ABC Monday, Sept. 24 at 8 p.m. EST.
