Shawn Johnson’s appearances on "Dancing with the Stars" have clearly attracted fans she doesn’t want — e.g., alleged stalker Robert O’Ryan — but there are some pretty huge financial benefits.

We’ve obtained a copy of Shawn’s "Dancing" contract — a public document filed with the L.A. County Superior Court. A judge had to approve the deal because she’s a minor. Under the contract, Shawn gets a guarantee of $125,000 for appearing on the show. By surviving the first elimination, she gets an additional $10,000 a week for weeks 3 and 4.
