Maksim Chmerkovskiy

LITTLE MAKSIM – HAPPY AT LAST!

Actually the Dancing with the Stars pro is not so little – he’s 6”2” – but he seems to have finally calmed down. During his 11 seasons the show, the dancing lothario Maksim Chmerkovskiy, has been romantically linked year after year with either his partner or another pro dancer by the press, and there were never any denials. Even Kirstie Alley enjoyed a purported romance with Maks and the series appreciated every minute of the publicity. This season he’s dancing with Amber Rose and you just KNOW there would be rumors if he wasn’t “taken.” Now Maks, 36, is engaged to fellow hoofer Peta Murgatroyd, 29, and they’re expecting a baby boy in January. Hopefully, the show will survive.

Dance Dancing With the Stars Maksim Chmerkovskiy Peta Murgatroid

MAKSIM AND PETA: JOBS ON THE SIDE

Dancing with the Stars isn’t enough to keep Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Peta Murgatroid busy year around, so they look for dance gigs wherever they can find them. Their latest appearance was at JC Penney at Manhattan Mall where they hosted a fitness event. Actually, the recently engaged pair could become quite the power couple in the world of dancing and we expect they will have no trouble finding work – if they stay together.

Jennifer Lopez Kirstie Alley Leah Remini Maksim Chmerkovskiy Scientology Shun

KIRSTIE ALLEY WANTS NOTHING TO DO WITH LEAH REMINI’S FRIENDS

It’s a good thing Leah Remini has friends like Jennifer Lopez because her former friend Kirstie Alley wishes nothing but the WORST for her. Just to show you how loony Scientology IS – Kirstie has called off her friendship with her DWTS dance partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy because he’s hanging out with Jennifer Lopez, and Jen happens to be friends with Leah! (Leah, as you know, left Scientology not long ago) That’s third generation SHUNNING! Maks revealed this on Watch What Happens Live so it’s no rumor! Incidentally, Jennifer has agreed to appear on Leah’s reality show “It’s All Relative” – and that is a friend, in deed.

Jennifer Lopez Maksim Chmerkovskiy

JENNIFER LOPEZ AND MAKSIM HAD A WEEKEND IN MIAMI

Coincidence? We doubt it. Jennifer Lopez famously performed at the iHeartRadio event in Miami Beach this weekend and guess who HAPPENED to be in Miami at the same time? J.Lo’s rumored beau Maksim Chmerkovskiy! Jennifer’s ex Casper Smart has only been out of the picture for a matter of weeks and she has already moved on. But don’t expect her to talk about it so early on. When Maks name is brought up, Jennifer vaguely dismisses dating rumors with “I need time to be alone “ or “The twins come first.” C’mom, we all know J.Lo HATES to be alone…
(Above, Jennifer is now in NY – where do you suppose Maks is?)

Dancing With the Stars Jennifer Lopez Maxsim Chmerovskiy New Couple

JENNIFER LOPEZ AND MAKSIM CHMERKOVSKIY: LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

We can’t stop thinking about Jennifer Lopez’s new romance with DWTS star Maksim Chmerkovskiy. OF COURSE, sparks must have flown between them when he picked her up for the finale of a dance number at the American Music Awards in November. Maks admitted those were “the most stressful four seconds of my life.” Not ONLY because he was afraid he might drop her, but there must have been an immediate attraction, only fueled by the fact that they were both seeing others. Since then they have both shed their mates, and the time is right. We anticipate plenty of fireworks in this relationship: Maks has that Eastern European macho temper and he’s accustomed to docile girls who take his lead. Jennifer is also accustomed to being in charge, and SHE has a hot Latina temper herself. This is going to be fun!

Dancing With the Stars Kate Upton Maksim Chmerkovskiy Split

KATE UPTON AND MAKSIM CHMERKOVSKIY WERE FAR FROM AN IDEAL COUPLE

We’re guessing that Kate Upton’s parents are breathing a sigh of relief since their daughter split with her boyfriend of six months, Maksim Chmerkovskiy. Ukrainian born Maksim, 33, is very sexy and a fabulous dancer, but he appeared on 14 seasons of ”Dancing With the Stars” and he never won with any of his partners. Some dance partners complained that he was too impatient and bossy, and he had difficulty curbing his hot temper. Dominating Ukrainians tend to be very controlling with all-American fun-loving girls like Kate, who’s only 21. Luckily, their initial passion burned out and they have both moved on – avoiding future problems.

Bad Behavior Dancing With the Stars Hope Solo Maksim Chmerkovskiy

DID MAKS BADMOUTH HIS WAY OFF DANCING WITH THE STARS – OR IS HE TOP DOG?

Is temperamental “Dancing with the Stars” pro Maks Chmerkovskiy’s bad behavior on the show cementing his return next season, or likely to get him voted off for good? Maks (“This is MY show”) and his partner Hope Solo, who placed last on Monday, have battled with each other, but his televised clashes with judges Len Goodman and Carrie Ann Inaba are what everybody’s talking about. Sore loser Maks insulted Len by suggesting its time for him to retire and when Carrie Ann noticed him smirking during her critique, he reacted badly and later in an interview said “F— Carrie Ann.” Maks’ ego, chest baring, and hostility have kept the show lively, and viewers seem to eat it up. It will be interesting to see how he does Tuesday night and IF he returns next season. Maybe it IS his show.

Dancing With the Stars Kirstie Alley Maksim Chmerkovskiy

KIRSTIE ALLEY’S DANCING FEET ARE KILLING HER

Photo Credit: Pacific Coast News

Insiders say that “Dancing With The Stars” contestant Kirstie Alley is exhausted from long and rigorous rehearsals directed by her stern taskmaster/partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy. Maks is a serious competitor and wants to WIN, so he’s using every trick to motivate Kirstie. Telling her she danced “like a grandma” didn’t work. Kirstie is not accustomed to being bossed around, so this could be a turbulent pairing. Apparently her feet are already hurting so much she’s going barefoot.
