Tension is mounting now that we are down to a precious few on ABC’s Dancing With the Stars, and tonight one more couple faces the judge’s wrath.

Our former Vegas Academy music student Julianne Hough still won’t be able to partner with Cody Linley for medical reasons, so, with Edyta Sliwinska as his temporary partner, he may be at a disadvantage. However, Julianne will be there to watch and encourage the Hannah Montana teen heartthrob, and tomorrow she will sing her new country single “My Hallelujah Song.” She expects to dance again next week if Cody isn’t eliminated.

In the meantime, the good news is that our hometown R&B queen Toni Braxton will have less than a 15-minute journey from her south Strip home Dec. 29 when the “DWTS Tour” high-steps into the Orleans Arena. Also there will be Lance “Sir Dance-A-Lot” Bass with his partner, Lacey Schwimmer, Maurice Green, Marlee Matlin from Season 6 and pros Sliwinska, Mark Balas, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, Derek Hough (partnered tonight with Brooke Burke), Kym Johnson, Alec Mazo, Fabian Sanchez and Karina Smirnoff. Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. today.

We’ll be back tomorrow morning with the overnight judge’s scores and brand new photos from tonight’s dances.
