## Resource

Mark Ballas’ wife BC Jean stunned audiences by stepping in last minute to perform “Black Velvet” during his DWTS routine, learning the song in just one day—Mark called her a “BADASS Rock singer” on Instagram. Maura Higgins delivered a flawless debut, earning sevens from all judges and praise for her seductive, story-driven dance. Meanwhile, the money talk heats up: contestants earn $125K upfront, with potential up to $295K, though Bobby Bones claims his win paid closer to $400K. Pros get guaranteed pay regardless of elimination, with a nice bonus for making the finale. And while pros don’t choose their partners, showrunner Rob Wade says height, build, and chemistry are key—even if they’ve messed up on that front before.
