Robert Irwin has an offer on the table that could send him to Sin City!<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, the wildlife conservationist sent the internet into a frenzy after he ripped his shirt off during his salsa routine on \u201cDancing with the Stars\u201d on Sept. 30, revealing his impressive abs.<\/p>\n

We caught up with Robert, 21, backstage after the shirtless moment, where he told our entertainment reporter Courtney Tezeno that the viral moment was even a surprise to his family in the audience.<\/p>\n

When asked if he gave his mom a heads up, he responded, \u201cNo, they were all in the audience, and they’re all watching, and \u2018They’re all like, What?!\u2019\u201d he exclaimed.<\/p>\n

Now, Robert has received a pitch sent to his momager, Terri Irwin, for a guest spot to dance at Chippendales in Las Vegas once the ABC dance competition wraps, according to TMZ.<\/a><\/p>\n

The outlet claims the proposal message read in part, \u201cHis personality, kindness, skills (and body!) make for a perfect celebrity host!\u201d<\/p>\n

They might be on to something, as the zookeeper has wowed the world with his dance moves on the \u201cDWTS\u201d so far. This has opened a new competition online, the search for Robert\u2019s \u2018American girl,\u2019 with several potential love connections posting videos pitching themselves for a date with the Aussie heartthrob. His partner, Witney Carson, who has been \u201cmanaging his DMs,\u201d says she\u2019s had to temporarily restrict access to his messages.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe does not look at any of the contenders. But that’s because I have not presented any yet,\u201d Witney admitted. \u201cListen, guys, I’m trying to win the mirror ball here, so I’ve got a lot on my plate. We are not looking for any girls, okay.\u201d<\/p>\n

Robert chimed in, saying, \u201cYes, we are!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you so much for the applications,\u201d Witney concluded.<\/p>\n

The season 34 competition continues to heat up with Robert consistently being toward the top of the leaderboard. Fans have also been sharing their hope for Steve Irwin\u2019s son to do a tribute to honor his late father, similar to the emotional performance his sister Bindi did in season 21.<\/p>\n

When Tezeno asked if we could see him pay tribute to his mom, Terri, instead, Robert had a big reaction to the suggestion.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really appreciate you saying that a lot. I see my mom as my biggest inspiration, and someone who has been there for myself and my sister through thick and thin,\u201d Robert said. \u201cHer incredible grace, passion, and determination to keep my dad’s legacy alive is beyond admirable, but also to be there as such an incredible mum, an incredible business leader, she’s everything I would ever want to be in a person…Yeah, everything I do here is to really continue a legacy that her and my dad started.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDancing with the Stars\u201d airs Tuesday at 8:00 p.m. ET\/PT on ABC and Disney+, with next-day streaming on Hulu.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Robert Irwin has an offer on the table that could send him to Sin City!
