FAIRFAX DISTRICT, LOS ANGELES — The sparkles and spray tans returned to the ballroom for a “Dancing with the Stars” milestone — the show’s 20th anniversary and 34th season. Fourteen new celebrities and their pro partners hit the dance floor for their first live performance on Tuesday.

The good news: No elimination this first week! Their scores will carry over to next week. The bad news: There will be a double elimination.

The show kicked off with a big opening number with all the pros, and the new troupe, the judges and hosts joined in on the fun. Carrie Ann Inaba was out sick, so the voting burden fell on only two judges, Derek Hough and Bruno Tonioli.

At the end of the dance-filled two-hour show, two couples were tied with the top score of 15 points out of 20: Robert Irwin and Witney Carson, and Whitney Leavitt and Mark Ballas.

Bringing up the end of the list, another tie with 9 points out of 20: Andy Richter and Emma Slater, and Corey Feldman and Jenna Johnson.

Here’s a rundown of the night, in order that the couples performed:

Jordan Chiles

Olympic gold medalist Jordan Chiles and partner Ezra Sosa performed a Salsa that featured lots of tricks and flips. The duo received kind words from judges for the very first dance.
Scores: 5, 5 – 10/20

Dylan Efron

Social media and reality TV star Dylan Efron and partner Daniella Karagach performed a Cha Cha to “Milkshake” by Kelis. Bruno wants consistency with timing and more strength, but thought it was surprisingly good.
Scores: 5,5 – 10/20

Elaine Hendrix

Film and TV actress Elaine Hendrix and partner Alan Bersten performed a Cha Cha to “Woman” by Kesha featuring The Dap-Kings Horns. Derek said the routine was Broadway quality, and the dance had her BFF Lisa Ann Walter crying in the audience. Bruno said it was sassy and sexy, yet classy.
Scores: 6, 6 – 12/20

Whitney Leavitt

From “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,” Whitney Leavitt and partner Mark Ballas performed a Tango to “Golden” from KPop Demon Hunters. Derek called it elegant, content-filled and thought Carrie Ann would love the routine.
Scores: 7, 8 – 15/20

Baron Davis

NBA All-Star Baron Davis and partner Britt Stewart performed a Cha Cha to “U Can’t Touch This” by MC Hammer. The judges agreed it was fun, charismatic and a great first dance, but needed a bit more content.
Scores: 5, 5 – 10/20

Alix Earle

Social media personality Alix Earle and partner Val Chmerkovskiy performed a Cha Cha to “Circus” by Britney Spears. The judges used words like sharp, clean, precise, powerful and confident. They just asked for a little more fluidity and connection.
Scores: 7, 6 – 13/20

Scott Hoying

From “Pentatonix,” GRAMMY winner Scott Hoying and partner Rylee Arnold performed a Tango to “Abracadabra” by Lady Gaga. They also received kudos for a great first effort.
scores: 5,5 – 10/20

Danielle Fishel

“Boy Meets World” star Danielle Fishel and partner Pasha Pashkov performed a Tango to “Stronger (What Doesn’t Kill You)” by Kelly Clarkson. Derek called the dance a breath of fresh air, and Bruno thought the two made great partners.
Scores: 6, 6 – 12/20

Jen Affleck

“The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,” Jen Affleck and partner Jan Ravnik performed a Salsa to “NUEVAYoL” by Bad Bunny. The judges applauded the dance but wanted to see more content of actual salsa and fewer lifts.
Scores: 6, 6 – 12/20

Corey Feldman

Actor and musician Corey Feldman and partner Jenna Johnson performed a Tango to “It’s Still Rock & Roll to Me” by Billy Joel. The judges thought Corey’s performance was good, but he needs to work a lot on technique.
Scores: 4, 5 – 9/20

Lauren Jauregui

From “Fifth Harmony,” Lauren Jauregui and partner Brandon Armstrong performed a Tango to “yes, and?” by Ariana Grande. The judges were floored and loved the elegance, texture and frame of the dance and said the couple put all the others on notice that they are contenders.
Scores: 7, 6 – 13/20

Andy Richter

Comedian Andy Richter and partner Emma Slater performed a Cha Cha to “Hold On, I’m Coming” by Sam & Dave. The judges nicely said the dance was fun, cheeky, uplifting and had some of the spirit of Cha Cha, but the body and technique weren’t quite there.
Scores: 5,4 – 9/20

Hilaria Baldwin

Author and wellness influencer Hilaria Baldwin and partner Gleb Savchenko performed a Cha Cha to “Let’s Get Loud” by Jennifer Lopez. Derek said it was the best Cha Cha (for mom of seven), and Bruno liked that Hilaria “went for it like a fury.”
Scores: 7, 7 – 14/20

Robert Irwin

Wildlife conservationist Robert Irwin and partner Witney Carson performed a Jive to “Born To Be Wild” by Steppenwolf. The judges, especially Derek, were blown away. He called the dance great, wild and wonderful, and thought the kicks and flicks were brilliant. Derek also dared to say it was the best first dance… ever.
Scores: 8, 7 15/20

Next week, the 14 couples will dance to “one hit wonders” ahead of the dreaded double elimination.
