Dancing With The Stars Hines Ward Gets Perfect Scores But Chelsa Kane Gets More Points

Last night was the first time I watched Hines Ward dance on Dancing With The Stars. To shorten the two hour dance marathons I had been fast forwarding past dancers I had no interest in, or had no clue as to what made them a supposed star.

Like that Romeo kid who left last week.

This week on DWTS long bios introduced each dancer. The bio suddenly turned Hines Ward into someone very interesting.

Til last night I had no idea Hines Ward was born in Seoul, South Korea, to a black dad, Hines Ward Sr. and a Korean mom, Kim Young He. When Hines was 1 the family moved to Georgia, with his soldier dad soon sent to Germany on a tour of duty. A year later Hines mom and dad divorced, with his dad convincing a court that Hines' mom could not raise him because she did not speak English. So, Hines went to live with his dad's mom til he was seven.

We heard from Hines' mom on Monday's DWTS. She now speaks English.

Hines' mom seemed to think he really had no business dancing. But, on Monday's show, Hines and partner, Kym Johnson, scored all 10 on both dances, getting 60 points for a salsa and Argentine tango. I am sure someone has made perfect scores before, but I don't remember who.

The perfect scores were made even more impressive due to the fact that Kym injured her neck while practicing on Friday, while attempting a tricky lift which had Kym falling on her neck and Hines falling on top of her. Paramedics rushed in and took Kym to the hospital.

Carrie Ann Inaba is way too easily driven to tears, and was so driven on Monday by the Hines and Kym tango.

Chelsea Kane and Mark Ballas came in first for the night, with 73 points, after winning the third dance of the night, something called the "Winner-Take-All Cha-Cha."

Kirstie Alley and Maksim Chmerkovskiy came in 3rd with 54 points after doing some Viennese waltzing and  and paso dobling. Carrie Ann was not driven to tears, but did crown Kirstie as the "Queen" of the dramatic Latin dance.

Ralph Macchio and Playboy model, Karina Smirnoff were in last place with only 48 points. For the salsa Ralph wore something called a "booty pad" to make his butt bigger to supposedly improve his butt-shaking moves. I did not notice any increase in butt size. Or any consequent extra shaking. I probably was paying more attention to the Playboy model.

Next week is the DWTS's finale. I'd like to lose Chelsea and Mark tonight and have Ralph, Kirstie and Hines in the finale. I like the Chelsea kid, but Mark wears on my nerves.

Dancing With The Stars' Karina Smirnoff's Playboy Cover with Kendra Wilkinsons's Sex Tape

That is Dancing With The Stars Karina Smirnoff on the cover of the May Playboy.

No official word yet on whether or not Karina is in trouble with her dancing bosses for appearing in Playboy.

Supposedly Dancing With The Stars is considered a family show.

I'm sure it is.

But, has no one noticed some of the outfits the lady dancers wear?

Very Playboy Magazine worthy.

And some of the dances can get a bit risque, as well.

And many of the male dancers frequently go topless.

So many double standards.

Meanwhile, all over the Interwebs it is being speculated that the reason Kendra Wilkinson seemed a bit down and cranky on this week's Dancing With The Stars is because her husband is upset with Kendra because yet one more Kendra sex tape has come to the surface and gone into circulation.

Kendra is rumored to have made over half a million dollars from her first sex tape.

Now, why would DWTS kick Karina off the show over some likely almost tasteful photos, while they invite to dance a woman who has posed in Playboy, sold sex tapes, lived as a kept woman of Hugh Hefner's and I forget what else?

So much hypocrisy.

And why do celebrity types make all these tapes? That then somehow manage to go public?

I know, with 100% certainty, if I somehow suddenly became a celebrity, that no sex tapes of me would find their way to the Interwebs.

Maksim Chmerkovskiy In The Ukraine On The Bachelor Wondering If Mark Ballas & Derek Hough Will Be On The American The Bachelor

You are looking at picture of Dancing with the Stars Maksim Chmerkovskiy soon after his arrival in the Ukraine, on November 26.

Has Maks defected back to his homeland?

No.

Maks is back in his old homeland to try and find a wife by being on a Ukrainian TV network's Ukrainian version of ABC's The Bachelor.

I learned of this on Maks' blog where he defended himself regarding rumors that he'd refused to be on the American version of The Bachelor because he can't stand American women.

Maks has had some lovelife woes in his search for a wife. He claims to be real shy, with his time taken up by his dance career. For awhile Maks was engaged to fellow dancer Karina Smirnoff. He seemed real happy about it. But then they split. And now Karina is engaged again. While Maks hunts for Ukrainian love.

I think Maks would be very amusing on the American The Bachelor.

The Bachelor/Bachelorette has had a one way relationship with Dancing with the Stars, with Bachelorettes Trista Rehn Sutter and Melissa Rycroft dancing, along with everyone's most despised Bachelor, Jake Pavelka.

It seems only fair that one or two of the Dancing with the Stars stars should be on The Bachelor or The Bachelorette.

If Karina Smirnoff most recent engagement goes awry, she'd make a good Bachelorette.

Wouldn't Derek Hough or Mark Ballas be amusing Bachelors? Those boys in the Fantasy Suites? Now that would be some entertaining TV viewing.

I wonder if the Ukrainian version of The Bachelor will have Maks in 3 different Fantasy Suites? He's such a shy guy, I'm sure this would make him very nervous.

In the video below you'll see Maks upon his arrival in the Ukraine and hear him speaking Russian. Or is it Ukrainian............?

Dancing With The Stars: Maks & Karina Kaput?

Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Karina Smirnoff are two of the professional dancers on Dancing with the Stars.

At some point in the past year, or so, the pair of dancers decided to become a pair of future married people.

Maks Tweets on Twitter.

He had this to say about his dance partner for the upcoming new season of DWTS, "MY PARTNER FOR SEASON 9 OF 'DWTS' IS......... DEBI MAZAR!!! Very excited! She is cool, can move and funny as hell! It'll be fun!"

Maks has several Tweets about his new dance partner. I've seen no Tweets about Maks' finance, Karina.

Until Yesterday.

Maks Tweeted, "What was meant to be a 'life long book', turned into a 'chapter'.......and now that 'chapter' is finished...... Se la vie..."

I asked Maks if this meant Karina and he were no more. Maks did not get back to me on that. But, what else might that Tweet mean? Well, Karina was bordering on being a cougar, older than Maks, was she. It's likely for the best.

Maksim Chmerkovskiy & Madonna Dancing With The Stars Connection

I like Dancing with the Stars pro dancer, Maksim Chmerkovskiy. He is very amusing. This summer he was the winner on that odd show on ABC called Superstars. Or something like that.

Maks' partner for the upcoming new edition of DWTS is the actress from HBO's Entourage known as Debi Mazar.

Debi Mazar is also known as Madonna's longtime best friend.

Maks and Debi were practicing their dancing lately when Debi told Maks that she'd been describing him to Madonna, who then said, "Maks sounds divine."

Maksim then said, "I can die now. I have accomplished it all. Madonna said I sounded divine."

Maks is slated to marry fellow pro DWTS's dancer, Karina Smirnoff. That is Karina with Maks in the picture. Maks is 2 years younger than Karina, who is 31. Maks says he is ready to be a baby daddy. No date has been set for either the wedding or a baby.

Maks and Karina will be performing at the Emmy Awards on September 20.
