Alix Earle Talks DWTS Dreams and Ideal Partner at 2025 AMAs

Alix Earle is ready to trade TikToks for the tango. The social media star hit the red carpet at the 2025 American Music Awards in Las Vegas on May 26, where she opened up about her upcoming appearance on Dancing With the Stars.

Though the 24-year-old content creator hasn’t been told who her pro partner will be, she’s hoping for someone who’ll push her outside her comfort zone. “I’m looking for someone that’s going to challenge me,” she told E! News. “This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”

Earle also said she’s hoping for a partner with strong chemistry and charisma. “At first, I’m a little shy,” she admitted. “So I need someone more extroverted to help me open up and have good banter.”

In addition to teasing her dance floor debut, Alix stepped on stage as a presenter during the star-studded AMAs, hosted by Jennifer Lopez. The night also featured appearances from Dylan Efron, Ciara, Wayne Brady, and performances by Gwen Stefani, Gloria Estefan, and more.
