The show that pairs celebrities with profesional dancers has been TV for 31 seasons now! Over the years, quite a few country artists have hit the dance floor and competed with the best of the best. They have fox trotted, paso dobled, sambaed, cha-chaed and jived their way into our living rooms on the popular ABC reality show.

Take a look at all the country stars who have competed on Dancing with the Stars! From Grammy Award Winners to American Idol contestants, and one of these country artists even got to take home the highly-coveted mirror ball trophy!

Sara Evans was the first country star to compete on the ABC reality. Sara competed on the 3rd season of Dancing With The Stars, but withdrew in the middle of her season to be with her children, after some controversary surrounding her first husband. She filed for divorce shortly after withdrawing.

The "Achy Breaky Heart" singer and Miley's dad competed in 2007 with dance pro partner Karina Smirnoff. He finished a very respectable 5th place!

Chuck Wicks who scored a hit song in 2007 with “Stealing Cinderella” competed on Season 8. His partner was then-girlfriend Julianne Hough and the couple ended up placing 6th that season.

5 Grammy wins proved to be easier for Wynonna than competing in this tough competition. In 2013 Judd and her partner, Tony Dovolani were the second couple eliminated during the 16th season. She sure looked like she was having a good time though.

The former American Idol contestant competed the same season as Wynonna. She may have lost Idol to Taylor Hicks, but she proved victorious in season 16 of DWTS. Kellie Pickler went all the way, and won the entire competition, taking home the mirror ball trophy! With Derek Hough at her side, Kellie seemed to be a natural.

On the 23rd season of DWTS, Jana and her partner Glb Savchenko made it all the way to the finals, before their elimination at 4th place. The "Why Ya Wanna" and "I Got the Boy" singer loved her time on the show. 

The same year Lauren competed on DWTS, she came to Boston to do our Holiday Jam at the House of Blues. She talked about what a great experience it was competing. "The Road Less Traveled" singer was on Season 28 with Gleb Savchenko as her partner. The two made it to the finals, and placed 4th!  

Jimmie Allen never held back from a performance or emotions when he competed on the  30th season of DWTS with his pro partner Emma Slater. Unfortunatley, they were the 9th couple eliminated from the competition. But it sure was fun watching this talented artist. 

Jessie James Decker competed in the most recent season of the popular dancing competition show. She danced on Season 31, and was partnered with Alan Bersten. JJD was eliminated in week 7.  Jessie's fans got really upset when she was eliminated she since got such great feedback and her score was higher than her competitor Vinny Guadagnino. Still she doesn't regret being in the game.
