Strictly Come Dancing is back on our screens for its 19th series and has been entertaining the public for the past three weeks.
The BBC One hit show has recorded huge views with some watchers and fans being dedicated to the stars' lives on and off the big screen.
The main question everyone asks is how much the stars get paid to appear on the popular show.

And the figures are surprisingly low compared to other celebrity shows, YorkshireLive reports.
Popular shows like I'm A Celebrity or Celebrity Big Brother can have stars leaving the show with £500,000 for just being on for a few weeks.
How much are Strictly Come Dancing contestants paid?
The amount they get paid increases depending on how far they make it through the competition, giving them even more drive to stay on the show for as long as they can.
Each celebrity is given a standard £25,000 payment once they sign up for the series.
If they then manage to get through the first month or so, their paycheck is topped up to make £40,000.
The competition's quarter finalists will make £60,000, and finalists will be paid £75,000.
The highest-paid competitor will obviously be the Strictly Come Dancing 2021 champion, who will reportedly walk away with prize money of £100,000.
How much are Strictly Come Dancing professionals paid?
The Strictly Come Dancing professionals reportedly get paid between £30,000 to £50,000 per series. However, some of the more experienced dancers can earn more than that.
Some of the more seasoned professionals in past years, such as Anton Du Beke have been said to earn as much as £65,000.
The pros can add to their payday by appearing on the Strictly tour, too.
