(NEW YORK) Dancing With the Stars was only the beginning. To kick off the Sony Ericsson Open in Miami, two tennis stars will team up with two stars of the slightly less athletic variety for the Glam.Set.Match mixed doubles exhibition match. On the pro front? Maria Sharapova and Novak Djokovic, who will team up with R&B singer Jay Sean and ex-Scary Spice Girl Mel B, respectively.

“I don’t think you can do better than Maria Sharapova,” said Sean in a statement. “To be honest, I think I’m going to let her do the majority of the work and I’ll just watch from the back! This is such a different vibe from what I normally do, its going to be great fun!” As for Mel B? “I’m so pleased to be playing with Novak Djokovic,” she said. “We’ve got a super high chance of winning because even though I might not be technically that good, my drive will help get us there!” Glam.Set.Match will take place in Miami on March 23. The only question: Will Anna Wintour attend?
