Will Maksim Chmerkovskiy Return To Dancing With The Stars Next Season?

« Kris Jenner Headed To Dancing With The Stars? | Home | Sam Poueu Continues To Recover After His Fall » November 29, 2011 10:02 AM by Lisa Princ Maksim Chmerkovskiy made quite an impression this season on ABC ‘s Dancing With The Stars , when he blasted the judges and some of his fellow dancers. After his behavior this season, should Maksim Chmerkovskiy return next season? Most of us are wondering if he will or not. Read on for more… Dancing With The Stars fans watched this season as Maksim Chmerkovskiy created quite a stir when he blasted the judges for criticizing his partner, Hope Solo. Maksim went as far as claiming that it was “his show,” and even telling reporters after the show: “F-ck judge Carrie Ann Inaba.” But the question remains – will Maksim Chmerkovskiy return next season, or does he even deserve to? While there has been no official word yet on whether or not the Ukrainian hothead will be back, Maks recently blogged about it, posting: “I can say at this point, I do...

Kirstie Alley and Maksim Chmerkovskiy's fall: not as dramatic as everyone's making it seem

I’ve stopped watching Dancing with the Stars because I have better ways to waste three hours a week, but last night’s episode featured one of the moments that inspire some people to keep watching: a mid-dance injury and fall. As Kirstie Alley with Maksim Chmerkovskiy started their dance, Maksim’s leg gave out and he went down, and since he was holding on to Kirstie, she fell down, too. They quickly got back up and finished the dance, although he was clearly in pain, wincing. Later, Brooke Burke handled this with her usual grace by showing a slow-motion video to him and babbling until Maksim finally just ran off-camera to get medical attention. By the media and Twitter coverage of this, you’d think it was insanely dramatic. TMZ screamed , “Maksim DROPS Kirstie Alley on ‘Dancing’.” The Huffington Post said “Kirstie Alley Falls,” which is not fully accurate. Entertainment Weekly suggested you “Watch! (Because you are a bad person).” I think you’re only a bad person if you make this int...

Maksim Chmerkovskiy will star in Ukraine's Bachelor, says he was offered ABC Bachelor

Dancing with the Stars pro Maksim Chmerkovskiy will star in the first Ukrainian version of The Bachelor, and said he rejected ABC’s offer to be on its show. Maksim said he “turned down the American version” because he didn’t think women on the US version were serious about finding love, while show sources are splitting hairs by telling EW that they met with him but never offered him the role. Maksim writes on his blog , “The idea that I would find ‘the one’ on a TV show is something that I can’t ever fathom, but after speaking to producers I have realized that a show where characters are doing it solely for TV exposure simply would not work. Our audience would not understand it and the show would be a disaster. There has never been a show such as this in Ukraine and it makes me think that a first season would be the most ‘real’ as far as participant’s perception of ‘what its all about’ is concerned.” He also addresses his previous comments that he wouldn’t do such a show. “Some of yo...

Dancing with the Stars: Maksim Chmerkovskiy Explains Why He’s Doing “The Bachelor” in Ukraine and not the U.S.

« Extreme Makeover Home Edition: Graham Family Sneak Peek! | Home | The Bachelor: Meet the Ashleys » December 22, 2010 11:00:15 by Shayla Perry After Maksim Chmerkovskiy of ABC’s Dancing with the Stars announced that he’d be looking for love on the Ukrainian version of The Bachelor , some people out there (and we won’t name names) felt that he was dissing American women; like he just broke up with our entire country and gave us the old, “It’s not you; it’s me” speech. But after reading his explanation as to why he chose Ukraine over the U.S., we’re starting to maybe think it’s not him–it’s us. Check out what Maksim had to say and see if you agree… From Maksim Chmerkovskiy’s Website: First thing first. I AM doing the Ukrainian version of our “Bachelor”. The fact that I’ve turned down the American version has NOTHING to do with my ‘dislike’ of American women (the statement is so absurd that I can’t believe I’m even dignifying it with a reply). My reasons for doing it: 1) This is...

Dancing with the Stars: Maksim Chmerkovskiy to Star in Ukrainian Version of The Bachelor!

« Undercover Boss: There’s Still Time to Nominate an Employee of the Month! | Home | American Idol: Happy Birthday to David Cook! » December 20, 2010 01:00:11 by Shayla Perry Maksim Chmerkovskiy of ABC’s Dancing with the Stars has confirmed that not only is he looking for love, but he’s doing it on the Ukrainian version of The Bachelor ! Keep reading for more details! “I AM doing the Ukrainian version of our ‘Bachelor,’” the Dancing with the Stars hottie revealed on his website. So it’s probably pretty safe to say that those rumors of him dating fellow DWTS pro, Cheryl Burke , weren’t true. “There has never been a show such as this in Ukraine and it makes me think that a first season would be the most ‘real’ as far as participant’s perception of ‘what it’s all about’ is concerned,” explained Maksim Chmerkovskiy. “I’m going into this with a thought of ‘why not?’ I know it’s hard to find someone you can connect to on a project like this, but nothing is impossible.” But ladies, be...
