While the celebs’ choice of legends is yet to be confirmed, the BBC have revealed the professional dancers will unleash their inner Sasha Fierce in an explosive routine.
With Johannes Radebe taking the lead as Beyoncé, the group will perform a dazzling medley during the results show on Sunday, November
Bejewelled cowboy hats, power ballad moves and sparkling sass are to be expected.
The other special weeks in Strictly are: Movies, Blackpool and Musicals.
One particular dancer who has caught the nation’s hearts this year is Chris McCausland, who judge Anton Du Beke described as ‘the most brilliant thing I have ever seen on the show’.
The blind comedian, 47, and his professional partner Dianne Buswell have wowed BBC viewers with their incredible performances so far.
And Anton, 58, has revealed he finds Chris’ dancing ‘extraordinary’ and ‘phenomenal’, but continues to judge him like every other contestant.
Anton said: ‘I think we made a mention of it in week one how he can’t see but can dance like that. Now we don’t talk about it because he wants to be judged like everyone else. But I have to tell you, he can’t see and he is standing on sofas and jumping off things, perfect timing.
‘He is making it look a bit easy if I am honest. It is just so extraordinary I find it difficult to put into words, really, how gripping it is. And what a job Dianne is doing, I would have kept him in hold and gone to the side and I would have gone forward.
‘She has said ‘off you go’. Just brilliant. Really, the timing is exquisite. His sense of rhythm is phenomenal. I have to tell you I think it is the most brilliant thing I have ever seen on Strictly Come Dancing.’

Dianne Buswell explains how she trains with blind Chris McCausland
It comes after Dianne revealed how she trains Chris for the show.
After week one of the competition, the pair scored 23 points and impressed viewers with their Cha Cha routine to Twist and Shout by The Beatles.
‘She has said ‘off you go’. Just brilliant. Really, the timing is exquisite. His sense of rhythm is phenomenal. I have to tell you I think it is the most brilliant thing I have ever seen on Strictly Come Dancing.’
Now, Dianne has revealed how she has to ‘place Chris’ hands on her body’ to allow him to feel what he should be doing.
In the opening VT, ahead of taking to the dancefloor for the first time, she explained: ‘I can’t show him what something needs to look like.
‘I’ve found Chris places his hand on my body and feels how my arms and my legs are moving and then he instantly gets an idea of what he should be doing.’
Chris, who is blind due to retinitis pigmentosa, added: ‘She is really patient and bringing the best out of me’.
