Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Break-ups

UPDATE: It’s now being reported that Maksim dumped the “high maintenance” Karina over the weekend.
Wow. Wow.
If Tom DeLay had you turning off Dancing with the Stars next season, this bit of news may have you turning back in. After nine months of engagement, Karina Smirnoff and Maksim Chmerkovskiy have broken up.
The dancing professionals - who recently performed together in Broadway’s Burn the Floor - had been scheduled to marry in June 2010. The wedding would have come a year and a half after Maksim popped the question.

Maksim Chmerkovskiy may be an expert on the ballroom floor, but he’s just a regular guy when it comes to proposals.
In the above clip, the 28-year-old Dancing with the Stars competitor and his fiancee, Karina Smirnoff, talk about the night he popped the question.
NOTE TO FUTURE RING BUYERS: The phrase “I’ve been with a lot women” should never be uttered during a proposal.

Engagement for DWTS’ Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Karina Smirnoff
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Engagements
To call these dancers “quick movers” would be an understatement.
Although they’ve only been together for less than six months, Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Karina Smirnoff are now officially engaged. The two Dancing with the Stars competitors - who have known each other for about 15 years - began dating shortly after Smirnoff, 30, ended her relationship with Mario Lopez last summer.
According to sources, Maksim, 28, popped the question to Karina on New Year’s Eve while they were celebrating in Las Vegas. The proposal happened in between stops of their DWTS tour. (Both dancers are expected to participate in the next season of the ABC show when it returns on March 9.)

Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Karina Smirnoff: DWTS’ Latest Couple
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Hook-ups


Over the past seven seasons, Dancing with the Stars has had its share of interesting relationships. We’ve seen celebrity/instructor couplings (Sabrina Bryan/Mark Ballas, Mario Lopez/Karina Smirnoff, Shannon Elizabeth/Derek Hough), married pros (Alec Mazo/Edyta Sliwinska, Jonathan Roberts/Anna Trebunskaya), father/son competitors (Corky Ballas/Mark Ballas) and sibling rivalries (Julianne Hough/Derek Hough). But we haven’t yet heard of any romances between the ballroom professionals, at least up until now.
