But ABC is keeping some of its pairings fresh. Check out the full list:

There’s one celebrity/pro pairing that we’re still waiting to see, and it’ll depend on which contestant the viewers vote to be the 13th celebrity on the “All-Stars” season. Kyle Massey, Carson Kressley and Sabrina Bryan are in the midst of competing to return to the dance competition, and viewer voting is open at ABC.com until Friday, August 24 at 12 p.m. PT.

The star viewers vote to come back for another attempt at winning the Mirror Ball trophy will be revealed on “Good Morning America” August 27.
