Corey Feldman Details Dancing With the Stars' "Behind-the-Scenes Drama"

Corey Feldman called the behind-the-scenes environment on Dancing With the Stars 'toxic' and denied tensions with partner Jenna Johnson after their early elimination.

  • On Nov. 23, Corey Feldman told Gurvey's Law in a preview clip obtained by the Daily Mail that behind-the-scenes drama on Dancing With the Stars was the "worst, like, most toxic."
  • After their week-two elimination from season 34, Maksim Chmerkovskiy told Daily Mail Jenna Johnson, professional dancer, faced a 'difficult' time with Corey Feldman on Dancing With the Stars.
  • On social media, Feldman wrote, `'Im so sorry for any negativity the media is using to give the false narrative that our time together was anything less than enjoyable,'` and he added he was there 7 days a week for the past 3 weeks to give his best.
  • Feldman said he wasn't eager to return for Tuesday's finale, while representatives for Maksim Chmerkovskiy, Jenna Johnson and Dancing With the Stars did not immediately respond to requests for comment and PEOPLE's outreach to ABC drew no immediate reply.
  • Behind the production's pace and pay, insiders describe a demanding schedule with $125,000 for early weeks and $50,000 per episode, plus a $110,000 base salary, as reported by sources.
