Yahoo Lifestyle Bindi Irwin finally gets paid for DWTS
Bindi Irwin is finally getting the pay she deserves after winning Dancing With The Stars US.
Just weeks ago the teen's payment was allegedly being held until there was proof that her late father, Steve Irwin, was actually dead.
Although her mum Terri signed forms which allowed Bindi to keep all of the winnings, a judge said that without proof her late father was also willing to give up his rights to the money 'the court is unable to find that it is in the best interest of the minor to be bound by the terms of the contract.'
Now, finally, the contract has now been approved and a $US350,000 will be paid into Bindi's bank account.

'So happy to get to introduce you to our world here in Australia! You are officially a Wildlife Warrior. Bring on the adventure! @derekhough,' gushed Bindi alongside a photo of the pair wearing matching khaki shorts.
