As Corey Feldman made his Week Two exit from ‘Dancing With the Stars,’ he quickly found himself in the midst of controversy. The former ‘Lost Boys’ star made comments about the show that led to backlash, but now he seems to be backtracking on his previous statements.
In a recent interview on the misSPELLING podcast with Tori Spelling, Feldman addressed the rumors that he wasn’t taking the competition seriously. He explained that he was dedicated to the show, spending seven days a week rehearsing for his performances. Despite the negative chatter, Feldman was fully committed to the experience.
When he signed on to do ‘Dancing With the Stars,’ Feldman’s next three months were planned out, regardless of how far he advanced in the competition. This included releasing an EP, a single, a music video, and the season 34 finale airing soon. In addition, Feldman had to move on September 4, just over a week before the show premiered on September 16. Juggling his preparation for the show with other commitments proved to be a challenge.
Feldman emphasized that he never worked harder on anything in his life. He expressed a change of heart regarding his earlier claims about the show’s supposed toxic culture. On the Gurvey’s Law radio show, he admitted that everyone on the show was nice and that his experience was overall positive. Even his partnership with Jenna Johnson was free of negativity, dispelling rumors that suggested otherwise.
As Feldman gets ready to perform one last time in the ‘Dancing With the Stars’ Season 34 finale on November 25, it’s clear that his journey on the show has been a rollercoaster of emotions and experiences. Tune in to ABC at 8 p.m. to catch his final performance and see how his time on the show comes to a close.
In the world of celebrity culture, it’s not uncommon for misunderstandings and miscommunications to arise. Corey Feldman’s experience on ‘Dancing With the Stars’ serves as a reminder that things are not always as they seem on the surface.
