Robert Irwin has become a fan favorite on “Dancing with the Stars” Season 34! He and his professional dance partner Witney Carson have been impressing fans week after week, and they have expressed their gratitude for their time in the competition.
Irwin hasn’t just been learning to dance and having great fun while doing it, because the show has also opened him up to unexpected job offers. Fans will likely remember the moment in Week 3 when he ripped open his shirt while dancing a Salsa routine to “MILLION DOLLAR BABY” by Tommy Richman for TikTok night. The moment went viral and resulted in a job offer from Chippendales. But how does Irwin feel about all this attention? And more importantly, has he given the job offer any thought?
Did Chippendales Approach Robert Irwin?
After Week 4 Show Day on Tuesday, October 7, Irwin spoke to Entertainment Tonight about the job offer that he received in Week 3 and shared his thoughts. “Is it true that you were approached by Chippendales to host a show?” a reporter asked Irwin, to which he replied, “That is true.” He was also giggling at the thought. “The Aussie boys as well. Thunder Down Under also reached out,” he added.
Irwin is a renowned wildlife conservationist and is recognized for his efforts in promoting animal welfare. He is also highly focused on his DWTS journey and is definitely in with a great chance of winning the Mirrorball Trophy. His reaction to whether he would consider Chippendales, which is known for its striptease performances and dancing, is unsurprising. “All power to them. Not for me. Not right now. I’ll take the shirt off every now and again…” Irwin shared.
“These hips don’t lie! Oh!” Irwin teased, showing off his moves.
Carson, who joined Irwin in the interview, also commented on how he will not be taking his shirt off more often in the competition. It’s a hilarious clip that shows their playfulness and highlights their working relationship.
