Robert Irwin has officially touched down in Los Angeles ahead of his highly anticipated debut on the upcoming season of Dancing With The Stars US.
The Aussie wildlife conservationist, 21, was spotted at LAX on Thursday, shortly after it was confirmed he would be joining the next season of the hit dance competition as its first celebrity contestant.
Wearing a black fitted polo, beige Adidas shorts and black Nike sneakers, the TV personality looked relaxed and ready for the challenge ahead.
He kept things low-key with a black face mask and wheeled a small black suitcase through the busy terminal, passport and phone in hand.
The 21-year-old cut a sporty figure as he strolled through the terminal, showing off his athletic frame and muscular legs.
With his blonde hair neatly styled, Robert looked every bit the confident young star stepping into the Hollywood spotlight.

It comes after Robert was confirmed as the first contestant on the upcoming season of Dancing With The Stars US, following his smouldering American ad campaign for Bonds.
Robert will need to be in peak physical health to successfully compete on the challenging competition.
In 2019, his older sister Bindi, who won the show in 2015, told The Project about the gruelling physical tasks the contestants face in order to perform well on the show.
‘It’s such a challenge. I don’t think people realise how much work goes on behind the scenes, it’s a huge commitment,’ she said.
During her time on the US version of the show, Bindi danced in front of a black-and-white portrait of her father, Steve Irwin.
‘What I think is so wonderful about Dancing With The Stars is that you get to share your journey and your story,’ she said.
Bindi took to social media to share her excitement about her brother appearing on the show.
‘Robert, you are going to absolutely shine in the ballroom. I wish I could express the magnitude of how proud I am of you and everything you have achieved,’ she began.

Earlier this month, fans of the Irwin family were left swooning after Robert debuted a sexy new photo spread
‘Can’t wait to cheer you on each week as you inspire so many with your strength, kindness and determination. Here’s to an extraordinary journey ahead.’
Earlier this month, fans of the Irwin family were left swooning after Robert debuted a sexy new photo spread.
And, of course, since he’s an Irwin, it was only fitting that he posed with live animals in some of the photos – and according to the magazine, most of them were venomous.
In one picture, Robert left little to the imagination as he wore a pair of white underwear.
He gave a smouldering look to the camera as a large snake was wrapped around his neck, also draping the reptile around himself as he sat down in a chair to flaunt his washboard abs.
In another snap, he cuddled with a large lizard, but this time, Robert was more covered up in a casual white tank top and dark teal undies.
The photos have since gone viral, with fans from all around the world swooning at the all grown-up Robert.
