Icona Pop took to the Dancing With The Stars stage last night, rocking day-glo lipstick and black-light appropriate ensembles to rave up on “I Love It.” But the Swedish duo didn’t only bring down the usually very tame ballroom with the performance of their minor 2012 hit, they managed to earn themselves a spot on the iTunes Top 10 Songs chart before the night was through.

We’re talking spinning the glow sticks above his head like a helicopter kind of thing.
