‘These Guys Are All Rich And Fat’: 'DWTS’' Val Chmerkovskiy Recalls What He Learned After Being ‘Humbled’ During His First Season On The Show

Fan-favorite "Dancing With the Stars" pro Val Chmerkovskiy did not win the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy for Season 33. However, he did get to present the trophy to his wife Jenna Johnson and her partner Joey Graziadei after winning Season 32 with Xochitl Gomez. That win marked his third one since joining as a pro in Season 13. However, it wasn’t always easy for him, as he recently opened up about how he got humbled really fast during his first season.

Chmerkovskiy explained that he was awfully confident about showing up all the veterans when he joined "DWTS" while on "Lightweights Podcast with Joe Vulpis." However, unfortunately, that was not what happened, as he recalled this humbling and eye-opening experience.
