It\u2019s the worst, like, most toxic.\u201d<\/p>\n He continued, \u201cOn the set everybody gets along. Everybody\u2019s great. Everybody\u2019s happy. You\u2019re working hard. You don\u2019t have time to look up. You\u2019re just working.\u201d<\/p>\n Us Weekly<\/em> has reached out to ABC for comment.<\/p>\n The Goonies<\/em> star briefly appeared on season 34 of the hit reality dance competition, paired with professional dancer Jenna Johnson<\/strong><\/a>.

The former child actor said that Johnson had been an \u201camazing\u201d partner and that she \u201cdeserved better.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYou start reading these things in the paper, \u2018This person\u2019s mad at this person. These people aren\u2019t talking to each other.\u2019 Or, \u2018Are people working hard enough? Corey Feldman destroyed the show. He destroyed the whole show because he was such an egomaniac it\u2019s so difficult to work with,\u2019\u201d Feldman reportedly continued during the upcoming episode\u2019s preview. \u201c\u2018Oh, it\u2019s just Max [Maksim Chmerkovskiy]. Don\u2019t pay attention to him. He just wants attention.\u2019 I was like, \u2018Oh my god.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n After the actor was eliminated, Johnson\u2019s brother-in-law, Maksim Chmerkovskiy<\/strong><\/a>, told The Daily Mail<\/em> that the pro was having a \u201creally difficult time\u201d<\/a> working with Feldman.<\/p>\n On September 24, Johnson recapped her short-lived time on the show with Feldman via Instagram.<\/p>\n \u201cCorey. Our time together was cut short but I am SO grateful for the incredible weeks we did get to share,\u201d she wrote at the time, alongside video clips highlighting the former dance couple\u2019s time practicing in the studio. \u201cThank you for the giggles everyday in rehearsal, thank you for the hard work, and thank you for sharing your life lessons and memories with me! I\u2019ll cherish our friendship forever. Never stop dancing.\u201d<\/p>\n
