Alix Earle is stepping into the spotlight of the ballroom!

The social media personality has officially been confirmed as the second celebrity participant for Season 34 of “Dancing with the Stars.”

“It’s kind of surreal,” Earle shared during the Thursday episode of “Good Morning America.” She reminisced about watching the show with her grandmother when she was a kid. “She always told me I’d fall in love with dance… I think it’s going to be a blast!”

Earle, who is 24, boasts a massive following on social media, with 7.5 million followers on TikTok and 4.3 million on Instagram.

As the host of the “Hot Mess” podcast, she has captured attention with her relatable fashion, lifestyle tips, and even her experiences with acne. Not to mention her adorable relationship with NFL player Braxton Berrios.

Now, Alix is ready to tackle this exciting new venture with “Dancing with the Stars.”

She’ll be competing alongside Robert Irwin, who was the first celebrity announced for the season. Robert is the son of the late “Crocodile Hunter” Steve Irwin and his wife, Terry, and has an impressive background in wildlife conservation. He expressed his excitement, saying, “This will make your ultimate dream come true… I am truly grateful, from the bottom of my heart.”

At 21, Robert is carving a path in the dancing world, following in the footsteps of his sister, Bindi Irwin, who won a previous season with Derek Hough.

Bindi took to Instagram to cheer on her brother, saying, “Robert, you’re absolutely going to shine in the ballroom. I wish I could express how proud I am of you and everything you’ve achieved.” She added how excited she is to support him as he inspires others.

The complete list of celebrities and their professional partners will be revealed soon.

Last season featured contestants like Brooks Nader and Dwight Howard, with “Bachelor” alum Joey Graziadei ultimately winning the trophy alongside Jenna Johnson.

Joey reflected on the intense experience, stating, “I don’t really know how I feel right now. It’s a crazy process. We’re finally out of it, so now we’re celebrating!”

In a recent chat with Page 6, Kelsey Anderson, Joey’s fiancée, mentioned that she is also interested in showing off her dance skills. “It’s an amazing opportunity. I don’t think I could have said ‘no,'” she noted. “If they approached me, I’d definitely say ‘Yes’.”

“Dancing with the Stars” is set to return to ABC and Disney+ this fall, with new episodes available on Hulu the following day. Keep up with Page 6 for the latest updates on your favorite contestants and pros.
