Actor Corey Feldman has criticized Dancing with the Stars for what he described as harmful workplace conditions occurring away from cameras, despite his positive experience with professional partner Jenna Johnson. The performer made these statements during an appearance on Gurvey's Law radio show, characterizing the production environment as more hostile than any he has encountered previously.
Feldman suggested that tensions arose from comments made by Maksim Chmerkovskiy, whose brother Val is married to Johnson. The actor stated that Johnson dismissed these remarks as attention-seeking behavior when he asked about their origin. Despite early speculation about conflicts between the dance partners, both publicly dismissed such claims after their second-week elimination from the competition.
The performer and Johnson will rejoin other eliminated contestants for the finale, where five remaining couples compete for the championship trophy.
