The next episode of ABC's Dancing With the Stars will feature the celebrities switching partners with each other, and one dancer has already gotten into the spirit of being with his celebrity partner.

Alfonso Ribeiro Performing Flamenco With Cheryl Burke For 'Switch Up' Week

Fan favorite dancer Derek Hough will be without his celebrity partner Bethany Mota on Monday as part of the Switch Up twist. This week he will be dancing with Sadie Robertson, who was originally Mark Ballas' partner. Hough discusses the transition to Robertson and how he's going country in his new TVGuide.com blog post.

"I've been staying at Sadie's family farm in Louisiana and it's amazing here. We've been riding four-wheelers and having a good time," Hough writes. "We have the Charleston and Sadie's doing great so far. She's a really terrific dancer and she's not afraid to try things. I think she's been really impressive so far on the show, so hopefully I won't let her down! I was joking that I should grow my blonde beard out and it'll be Albino Duck Dynasty. I don't think we've had that yet!"

Jonathan Bennett & Partner 'Shocked' By Low Score

So far this season, Mota and Hough have averaged a score of 34.5 out of 40, placing them third in the overall rankings. Meanwhile, Robertson and Ballas are in fifth with an average score of 33.5, so it is a pretty fair swap for Hough. Ballas will be dancing with Mota in Monday night's episode.

Dancing With the Stars airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
