Alix Earle, a rising star in the social media landscape, is set to showcase her dancing skills as a contestant on Season 34 of “Dancing with the Stars.” She was pictured arriving at the 2024 CFDA Awards held at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City on October 28. Not long after that, the race announcement came. Earle, who has amassed over 7.5 million followers on TikTok, has captured the hearts of audiences with her humor, beauty, fashion, and lifestyle tips.
In many ways, Earle is more popular in the digital space than he ever was during his breakthrough years. She was recently featured in Rolling Stone’s annual Creators issue and earned accolades from Allure, being named the magazine’s Beauty Creator of 2024. Additionally, she secured a spot on Forbes’ Top Creators list and was recognized in Forbes’ Fashion 50 list in 2023, affirming her influence in both beauty and fashion circles.
With her background as a dancer, Earle told us that she was thrilled to see her on “Dancing with the Stars.” In a recent interview with Elle, she described herself as “obsessed with” the show. Her TikTok “For You” page is flooded with videos from last season’s dance show. This further deepens her manifest devotion to the art form.
Earle’s education and passion for dance started early on. She shared, “I was dancing competitively until my junior, senior year of high school,” emphasizing her long-standing passion for dance. We expect all of this experience to shine through and help her compete on the show!
In November 2024, Earle attended the taping of the 500th episode of “Dancing with the Stars,” marking a significant milestone for the series. To celebrate, she shot a special “Get Ready With Me” video. This allowed her followers to get an inside glimpse at how she got ready for such a momentous occasion.
In addition to her growing dance and social media career, Earle is the host of the “Hot Mess” podcast. We talk about stigma surrounding mental health and cosmetic surgery, her experience with acne, and more. This layered strategy behind every piece of content deepened her bond with her community.
