Alyson Hannigan slayed the dance floor with a tango to Shakira’s “Can’t Remember to Forget You” featuring Rihanna on Dancing With the Stars‘ Latin Night on Tuesday (Oct. 3), and she’s eager to show off her ballroom moves to more tunes from music superstars.
After the show, during which the actress and pro partner Sasha Farber earned an impressive score of 19 for their week two performance, Hannigan spoke with Billboard‘s Tetris Kelly and shared who’s on her playlist wish list.
“Taylor Swift!” the Buffy the Vampire Slayer star declared excitedly and without hesitation, before emphasizing her answer a few more times for good measure. “Taylor Swift! Taylor Swift! I love Taylor Swift!”
“You know who I’d love to dance to?” Farber asked, to which the actress responded, “Taylor Swift?” Alas, the pro opted to keep it on theme for the night. “Becky G!” he shared.
But the Latin Night performances were over, and Hannigan was ready to move on from the genre. “I would love to dance to BLACKPINK!” she added to the confusion of Farber, who didn’t seem familiar with the K-pop superstars.
“BLACKPINK! K-pop!” Kelly informed the pro dancer. “One of the biggest groups! They performed at Coachella!”
“INCREDIBLE!” the actress added of the “How You Like That” singers.
Though there has not yet been word of a BLACKPINK-themed night, Farber’s fellow DWTS pro Peta Murgatroyd let slip to Billboard Tuesday night that a Taylor Swift evening was on its way to the ballroom bash. “We will be having a Taylor Swift week here,” shared Murgatroyd, who has won two seasons of ABC’s long-running dance competition. She is paired with Brady Bunch star Barry Williams this season. (Artem Chigvintsev, another of the show’s pro dancers, had also previously hinted on a podcast that Taylor week was happening.)
DWTS has not yet confirmed or announced a Swift-themed week, but the pop superstar is a vocal fan of the competition, and has performed on the show in the past.
Watch Hannigan’s impressive Latin Night tango below:

After kicking off their first round of shows last year, frontman Dave Grohl penned an emotional message thanking fans for their support. “Now that we’ve returned from our first run of shows, I felt compelled to reach out and thank you all for being there for us,” he wrote at the time. “Every night, when I see you singing, it makes me sing harder. When I see you screaming, it makes me scream louder. When I see your tears, it brings me to tears. And when I see your joy, it brings me joy. But, I see you… and it feels good to see you, churning up these emotions together. Because we’ve always done this together.”

The great detective has arrived! Detective Pikachu Returns is the long-awaited sequel to 2016’s very popular Pokémon spinoff game for the Nintendo 3DS.
Priced at $49.99 at Amazon, Best Buy, Target and Walmart, Detective Pikachu Returns for the Nintendo Switch is unlike any other Pokémon game. First off, Pikachu speaks, but he has the voice and persona of a middle-aged man who loves to drink coffee.

Secondly, he has a partner, a human named Tim Goodman, who is the son of Detective Pikachu’s former partner Harry, who went missing two years earlier. The pair go around Ryme City asking questions of the people and Pokémon around them, as they gather clues in a trusty notebook and solve mysteries in a point-and-click adventure.
Nintendo/Amazon
Meanwhile, the game follows the events after a jewel heist in Ryme City. Detective Pikachu and Tim join forces to investigate and search for clues, while one mystery leads to another that will hopefully reveal the identity of the real jewel thief. Other Pokémon help as much as they can, but they only talk to Detective Pikachu, who has to translate for Tim.
Detective Pikachu Returns is the perfect example of a cozy game — just in time for the fall season. Although most of the game is text-based and character-focused with cute animations, it’s great for curling up on a couch with a hot cup of cocoa (or a coffee) on a cold and rainy afternoon as you look for clues and question all sorts of different Pokémon, such as Growlithe, Slowpoke, Ducklett, Magikarp, Snivy, Rowlet, Sudowoodo and more.
Detective Pikachu Returns for Nintendo Switch is out now and available for $49.99.

Nelly Furtado is having a moment, which has most people wondering if this is the mark of a major comeback for the artist. The “Promiscuous” singer recently starred in the new SKIMS campaign featuring a lineup of legendary women (including And Just Like That‘s Kim Cattrall), and in the process, she showed off her flawless skin and timeless fashion taste.

“I will say that if you’re going to invest in one thing, buy a sheer black tight,” she says. “You can wear it with a skirt, you can wear it in the fall, in the spring. Honestly, nowadays, there’s never been a more lawless time in fashion — you can even wear them in the summer.”
Skims
Layering for Furtado is essential — especially when it came to choosing her SKIMS pieces for the campaign, as you can combine comfort with style.
“There’s something about stretchy material and sheer that you can kind of dress up or dress down,” she explains. “And I do that. I’ll have different bodysuits — including my SKIMS bodysuits. I’ll just put them underneath a sheer dress and it gives you that extra layer of confidence.”
