Have you ever wondered how much $$ contestants make when competing?
According to Variety, contestants on DWTS are guaranteed $125,000 for the show’s rehearsal period through the first two weeks on the air. If contestants make it to Week 3, they begin to earn additional money each week.
However, the maximum amount they can earn is $295,000. Contestants on previous seasons could make as much as $345,000, but things are tighter now that the show isn’t quite the ratings draw it used to be.
