by Mya Gill

Tullamore native Tolü Makay will take the stage again Sunday night in this week's show of Dancing With The Stars, including taking on the role of one of the Spice Girls

For the first time in the competition, each couple will have to dance two competitive routines. Their individual dance will be inspired by a boy band or girl group and then for their second routine the couples will join up for the annual Team Dance challenge. Jennifer Zamperelli and Laura Fox will be the team captains and also take part in the live dance

Singer-songwriter Tolu Makay will dance the salsa along with her partner Maciej Zieba to 'Boombayah' by K-Pop girl group BLACKPINK.

After all eight couples have performed Tolu Makay, Katelyn Cummins, Niamh Kavanagh and Stephanie Kelly alongside their respective partners will take up the roles of Sporty, Ginger, Baby, Scary and Posh dancing to 'Spice Up Your Life' by the Spice Girls, led by Laura Fox. Each team dance will be marked out of 40 by the judges which will then be added to their individual score providing them a maximum 80 points available. The two couples with the lowest combined scores will face the second dance-off of the season, where its the judges who decide who stays in the competition.

Tune in Sunday at 6.30pm on RTE One and the RTE Player.
