The Monday, October 18, episode of <strong><em>Dancing With the Stars</em></strong> will pay tribute to <em>Grease</em> — and include cameos from some of the movie’s cast.</p>


<p>“<strong><strong>Olivia Newton-John</strong></strong> will be making a surprise guest appearance on Monday’s show, in support of the competing couples who will dance to the music from her iconic film role,” a rep for the ABC competition series told <em>Us Weekly</em> on Monday.</p>
<p>Newton-John, 73, starred as Sandy in the 1978 musical movie, alongside <strong><strong>John Travolta</strong></strong>‘s Danny. <strong>Frankie Avalon</strong>, who sang “Beauty School Dropout” in the film, will perform the hit song live with a surprise appearance by <strong>Didi Conn</strong>, who starred as Frenchie in the Oscar-nominated movie.</p>

		<p>Us exclusively revealed the Grease songs that each pair will dance to on Monday night, with <strong><strong>Amanda Kloots</strong></strong> and <strong><strong>Alan Bersten</strong></strong> performing a Viennese waltz to Avalon’s number. <strong><strong>JoJo Siwa</strong></strong> and <strong><strong>Jenna Johnson</strong></strong> will foxtrot to “Look at Me, I’m Sandra Dee (Reprise),” while <strong><strong>Olivia Jade Giannulli</strong></strong> and <strong><strong>Val Chmerkovskiy</strong></strong> will foxtrot to “Summer Nights.”</p>


<p>Other songs set to be featured during <em>Grease</em> week are “Sandy,” “You’re the One That I Want,” “Look at Me, I’m Sandra Dee,” “Born to Hand Jive,” “Greased Lightnin’,” “There Are Worse Things I Could Do,” “We Go Together” and “Hopelessly Devoted to You.”</p>
<p>Siwa, 18, teased what she’s planning for <em>Grease</em> week during press interviews following the October 11 episode.</p>
<p>“I am <strong>looking forward to hopefully a fast song</strong>. I’m looking forward to a cute, little costume,” the <em>Dance Moms</em> alum told reporters. Johnson, 27, added: “Keyword, ‘little.’ … New human over here!”</p>

Kloots, 39, meanwhile actually liked getting into costume.</p>


<p>“Honestly though, it was really fun to dress up — tonight, especially — I mean, I had to go deep and kind of method today and, like, really be intense to get into this <em>Cruella</em> character because it’s so not me, but I really enjoyed it,” the <em>Talk</em> cohost said after dancing to “Call Me Cruella” on Villains night. “It was kind of fun.”</p>
<p><em>Dancing With the Stars</em> airs on ABC Mondays at 8 p.m. ET.</p>
