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............?

Congrats!

Dancing With The Stars Joanna Krupa Goes From Dancing Wild With Derek Hough to the December Playboy

That is not Joanna Krupa practicing a Kama Sutra move with Derek Hough, instead it is a dance called the Lambada, which I think must be Spanish for Kama Sutra dance.

Joanna and Derek danced the wildest dance I think I've seen on Dancing with the Stars. TV Guide picked it as the TV Moment of the Week, the week it was on.

Joanna will be baring even more skin soon, in the December Playboy, in an 8 page pictorial shot by celebrity photo taker, Rankin.

This will mark Joanna's second time being artful in Playboy. The first time, in the July 2005 Playboy, was after she was named the sexiest swimming suit model in the world.

I do not know if Derek Hough will be appearing with Joanna Krupa in the 8 page Playboy pictorial.

Below you can watch a YouTube video of the infamous Krupa/Hough R-Rated Lambada...
