  • Jodie Sweetin: Will “Fuller House” Actress Compete on “Dancing With the Stars?”

    Jodie Sweetin took to Twitter this week to address rumors that claim she’ll compete on an upcoming season of Dancing With the Stars. The Fuller House star believes the rumors stem from Val and Maks Chmerkovskiy taping an episode of the Full House reboot that will air starting February 26 on Netflix.

    Jodie Sweetin doesn’t confirm or deny the rumor in her tweet, does she? What do you suppose this might mean?

    If she were to compete on Dancing With the Stars, Jodie Sweetin wouldn’t be the first Fuller House cast member to do so. Candace Cameron Bure, who is reprising her Full House role as DJ Tanner, competed during season 18 alongside pro partner Mark Ballas. They came in third for the season.

    2016 is off to a spectacular star for Jodie Sweetin. In addition to Fuller House premiering later this month–allowing her to reprise her role as Stephanie Tanner–she announced her engagement to boyfriend Jason Hodak just a couple of weeks ago.

    How perfect might 2016 be if Jodie Sweetin actually competed on Dancing With the Stars? Maybe the entire Tanner family could sit in the audience and cheer her on.

  • Peta Murgatroyd: Engagement Ring Details, Maks Chmerkovskiy Chose Well

    Peta Murgatroyd and Maks Chmerkovskiy got engaged this past weekend in Miami, and the bling on her ring finger is turning heads wherever the couple goes.

    Hollywood Life learned some details about Peta Murgatroyd’s engagement ring, and it’s plain to see–and hear–that Maks did an excellent job picking it out.

    Maks Chmerkovskiy had the Cantamessa engagement ring specially made for Peta Murgatroyd. The sparkling beauty features a 3 to 4-carat center emerald cut in a split-shank setting. The diamond is flanked by a pave diamond encrusted band.

    Of course it’s only appropriate that this Dancing With the Stars couple should have something that reminds them of the coveted mirror ball trophy. Peta’s ring indicates a definite win/win for this dancing couple.

    Maksim Chmerkovskiy proposed to Peta Murgatroyd in front of a live audience during a performance of Sway: A Dance Trilogy at the Olympia Theater at Miami’s Gary Nader Art Centre. A member of the audience caught the moment in a video clip.

    The happy couple was spotted the next day in Miami, with that sparkling engagement ring on Peta Murgatroyd’s finger glistening in the bright Florida sun.

  • Janel Parrish and Val Chmerkovskiy: DWTS Couple?

    Janel Parrish of Pretty Little Liars and Val Chmerkovskiy—Dancing With the Stars pro–are partnered this season on DWTS, and some suspect there’s a different kind of partnering going on. Do you suppose there’s any truth behind this rumor, or the one that they’ve been caught kissing–twice–backstage?

    Val has performed for several seasons on Dancing With the Stars. The brother of Maks Chmerkovskiy–who has since left the show–was excited to kick off the show’s 19th season. He is noted for his professionalism and his sex appeal.

    Brother Maks did interject his two cents worth about the kissing rumor, however. Is he aware of the situation between Val and Janel Parrish–or is he maybe even a little jealous?

    Before Val ever met Janel Parrish in person, he had a feeling there might be a connection.

    “When she sees me and I see her this is going to be a match made in heaven,” he told the camera in a promo clip.

    What kind of match might this turn out to be?

    Epoch Times says Janel has a boyfriend–one Payson Lewis–and that Val Chmerkovskiy is single. What a difference a day–or a dance–can make, however.

    Wetpaint already reports that the two looked cozy on the red–or rather blue– carpet in L.A. at the People StyleWatch Denim Event at The Line. Janel Parrish rocked a black and white plaid skirt with a tight black crop top. She paired the look with adorable black booties and big hoop earrings. Val looked fashionably casual–sporting a light denim shirt with dark denim pants. He topped his ensemble with a fedora and low-cut brown leather boots.

    The two had fun after the blue carpet stroll, too.

    So what do you suppose the real scoop might be? Is there more between Dancing With the Stars pair Janel Parrish and Val Chmerkovskiy than their dance moves? Fans will likely have to watch and wait, and see what the coming weeks–both on and off the dance floor–bring.

  • Mark Ballas Injured in Accident: ‘DWTS’ Pro Transported to Hospital

    Mark Ballas of Dancing With the Stars fame was injured in a car accident on Monday in L.A. and transported to the hospital shortly thereafter. Fortunately friends of the dance pro are saying he will be okay. Ballas was reportedly behind the wheel when a ‘speeding vehicle’ slammed into the rear of his car’s right side.

    The dancer is being treated with medication for back pain and whiplash. He was treated and released from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

    Candace Cameron Bure was Mark Ballas’s partner on Dancing With the Stars this past season. She tweeted about the accident the day after it happened. Both Candace and Mark are likely counting their lucky stars that this accident didn’t take place while they were still pursuing that DWTS mirror ball trophy.

    This is the second injury in about a month for Mark Ballas. He was hurt during rehearsals at Dancing With the Stars last month. It seems his shoulder popped out during a dance routine and he was rushed by ambulance to the hospital. He wasn’t out of commission for long, however. He and Candace Cameron Bure made it to the DWTS finals where they lost out on that coveted mirror ball to Maks Chmerkovskiy and Meryl Davis.

    Mark is appreciative of all the Twitter love his fans have shown him since his car accident.

    Hopefully this is the last of the injuries for a long time–maybe even forever–for Mark Ballas. A dancer cannot sustain too many injuries and remain smooth and steady on his feet. As all dancers know, their careers are often short lived, with wear and tear on their bodies being the number one reason for retiring from the profession. Mark doesn’t need the extra added physical stress of accidents to lend themselves to his needing to choose a brand new profession in the near future. Fans would be crushed if the DWTS mainstay was no longer able to strut his stuff on the dance floor.

  • Meryl And Maks Reunite; The Two Share A Long Awaited Hug

    Dancing With the Stars ended two weeks ago with Meryl Davis and Maks Chmerkovskiy winning the title. Since then, rumors about the two dating have been spreading like wildfire. Davis and Chmerkovskiy’s chemistry was evident throughout the show. However, Davis said that they are not dating.

    The two soon went on their separate ways with Davis focusing on her skating performances, and Chmerkovskiy spending time with his family in New York.

    After two weeks of being apart, they reunited once again and Chmerkovskiy shared an Instagram picture with the caption, “All is right in the world again! Got my long awaited hug!”

    Chmerkovskiy was also present at the Fred and Adele Astaire Awards where he was interviewed about his relationship with Davis. “I love her. I love her! I love her as a person and for what she has allowed me to do with our choreography and how much she’s embraced it… She’s a brilliant person, and she’s also very normal. I enjoyed my time with her. It was sad when the season was over,” Chmerkovskiy answered.

    Though the two always deny that there’s something romantic between them, other sources say otherwise. Just after their Dancing With the Stars win, they were spotted having dinner and they were reportedly “touchy-feely” with each other. “Before dinner they were in a corner talking really close. He kept kissing her on the forehead and was doting on her,” the source said.

    Chmerkovskiy also added, “Rumors are always circulating around us dancers.” He said that it’s the nature of what they do, since they’re always in close proximity with their dancing partners. “In order to produce what Meryl and I produced, there had to have been so much chemistry, and we had it. And that’s what leads people who are not used to that to speculate, which is great. I love that.”

    However, another source said that Chmerkovskiy is just affectionate with women and being “touchy-feely” is just how he is.
