Artem Chigvintsev Was a Ballroom Champion

Artem also appeared on the English dance reality hit Strictly Come Dancing during season 8 of the show and continued to compete alongside celebrity contestants through season 11. This definitely seemed to be a lucrative endeavor for the artist.
He first competed on DWTS, possibly his most noteworthy work to date, during season 19 and continued to star as a pro on the show until season 27. Artem also toured with the ABC series’ live show.
Artem returned for season 29 when he was paired with former Bachelorette Kaitlyn Bristowe. After wowing the judges and viewers at home week by week, they won the season and took home the coveted Mirror Ball trophy.
“So knowing that back story I guess you know what it meant for me to be back this year and being partnered up with @kaitlynbristowe really made this experience complete her dream was for many years to be on DWTS which almost came true 5 years ago,” Artem wrote via Instagram in November 2020 after their big win. “Even that you started strong your journey wasn’t easy and no matter how hard it would get you never gave up. I want to say thank you for all your hard work and helping me to make my dream come true. Last and most importantly I want to thank all the fans who voted and supported us through the competition #bellaarmy #bachelornation #dwts you absolutely killed it , you ALL made this possible @dancingabc.”
Though he still dances with the DWTS live cast, Artem last competed on the show during season 32 in 2023 and finished in fourth place.

The performer appeared in the dance show Burn the Floor, which ran on Broadway in 2009 and on the West End in 2010. His pay from these specialty shows definitely contributed to his net worth.
