Drew Scott -- 10 things to know about the 'Dancing with the Stars' contestant

Drew Scott must be making a huge impression on Dancing with the Stars fans, because he's gliding his way towards the end of Season 25.


Drew is a 39-year-old realtor, entrepreneur and reality TV personality, who is best known for his starring role on HGTV's Property Brothers.

Drew may not technically be the best dancer on the show, but he has a lot of passion, energy and determination. He's partnered with pro dancer Emma Slater for Dancing with the Stars this fall.

Lucky for Drew, Emma is on a role, as she was just crowned champion of the show's 24th edition earlier this year with Rashad Jennings. Score-wise, Drew and Emma land in the bottom of the pack most weeks compared to their opponents, but that doesn't mean they can't go all the way! Curious to learn more about Drew?

Below is a list of 10 facts Reality TV World has compiled about Drew Scott:
