Rokdim Im Kokhavim (Hebrew: רוקדים עם כוכבים‎, "Dancing with Stars") is the Israeli version of the popular British TV show Strictly Come Dancing. The show features local celebrities partnered with professional ballroom dancers, competing to be the most successful dancers in the contest. Each week the couple that gains the least votes from the show's judges and spectators is eliminated. Viewers vote for their favorites, in order to save them from elimination, via phone, SMS and online. Over 350,000 votes were cast on the show's 3rd season finale.

In a twist in the competition after the 5th elimination, viewers were able to vote to reinstate their favourite of the 5 couples that had been eliminated. Orly Weinerman won, and was reinstated back into the contest, only to be re-eliminated by the public the next week. This twist created a controversy, however, when it allegedly emerged that contestants Pnina Rosenblum, Meital Dohan & Gala Kogan had already confirmed they had no plans to return to the programme under any circumstances, due to other commitments. Despite this, the phonelines to vote for the 3 contestants were kept open, at the expense of those voting by SMS. The Network responded that they had "operated according to policy", and would not confirm or deny the allegations to respect the "dignity of the stars".[1]
