- Max Balegde said on their podcast that he feels “part of a prophecy” where people around him win dance shows, referencing Robert Irwin’s U.S. Dancing with the Stars win.
- He joked he might leave the studio before the public vote if Clarke receives an unexpectedly low score, saying he does not want to be a “negative” presence.
