We appreciate Joey Fatone laughing at himself with this t-shirt. Sure, he’d like to have an ‘Nsync reunion after seven years of separation, but ALL the members must agree, and that can take time. Before this photo was taken, Joey was in the audience at “Dancing with the Stars.” ABC is polling viewers about who they’d like to see return to DWTS and Joey is one of the favorites, along with Drew Lachey and Mel B.

KARINA SMIRNOFF WASTES HER NUDITY ON PETA

Add “Dancing with the Stars” Karina Smirnoff to the list of celebrities foolish enough to take off their clothes for the animal cult PETA. Or maybe these celebrities just want an EXCUSE to take off their clothes. If they really cared about animals they’d volunteer or donate money to the many fine animal rights organizations that use their money to neuter and care for pets – NOT to purchase billboard space for self aggrandizement.

If being partners on “Dancing With The Stars” doesn’t damage Julianne Hough’s relationship with country singer Chuck Wicks, nothing will. Competing can be very stressful, but these two seem closer than ever. They took Julianne’s Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Lexi, for an outing at an LA mall.

IS DWTS JUDGE BRUNO FOOLING HIMSELF?

Dancing With The Stars’ enthusiastic judge Bruno Tonioli had a night out in West Hollywood with friends, and he looks handsome in his casual clothes. Note the pack of American Spirit cigarettes peeking out of his pocket. These smokes are advertised as “additive free” which implies they’re “safe,” but actually are just as hazardous as other cigarettes.

DEREK HOUGH LOVES THOSE DWTS FANS

The Ballas Hough band, which consists of Dancing With The Stars regulars Derek Hough and Mark Ballas, put on an athletic show at The Grove this week. Earlier in the week Derek was spotted by a DWTS fan they were standing in line together at Quiznos Sub Shop at Hollywood and Western. Derek was friendly and he and the fan chatted about the show, about Cloris Leachman, and other characters on the show, while waiting to order subs. When he reached the cashier, Derek insisted on paying for the fan’s sub, proving he’s the nice guy he seems to be.

FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE

Dancing with the Stars hunk Maksim Cherkovskiy reassured his fiancee Karina Smirnoff with a big kiss after their rehearsal together. He’s been spending most of his time rehearsing with his flirtatious partner Denise Richards, so he’d better give Karina some special attention. We’re sure she showed her big diamond engagement ring to Denise.

DENISE RICHARDS AND HER DANCE PARTNER MAXSIM ARE GETTING CHUMMIER

And so it begins. We warned Karina Smirnoff awhile back to keep a close eye on her fiancee Maxsim Chmerkovskiy since he was paired up to dance with Denise Richards on Dancing With The Stars. Denise is not known for having a highly developed conscience when it comes to dealing with other women’s men. First they were seen innocently having coffee, now they’ve been spotted chatting after rehearsal at the 3rd Street Dance Studio and kissing goodbye before departing.

DENISE AND MAKSIM ARE FRATERNIZING BETWEEN REHEARSALS

Maybe it’s a good thing that Dancing With The Stars pro Maksim Chmerkouskiy got engaged to fellow dancer Karina Smirnoff last month. He’s partnered up with Denise Richards on the show this season. Keep in mind that if Denise wants to flirt with her dance partner, she has never let a commitment get in her way. Denise and Maksim were photographed having coffee in Beverly Hills.

SHANNON ELIZABETH BLOWS HER POKER WINNINGS AT AMERICAN GIRL PLACE

Shannon Elizabeth would be a nice relative to have. The actress, last seen on “Dancing with the Stars,” brought this little girl who appears to be a niece or cousin, and treated her to a splurge at American Girl Place at The Grove. Shannon bought her a new doll and a wardrobe that included matching necklaces for the girl and her doll. Shannon is still dating her dance partner Derek Hough, and did you know she travels to Las Vegas three times a month for poker tournaments? She’s THAT good at playing the game.

Now THAT is a good looking family. It’s David Charvet and his “Dancing with the Stars” winning fiancee Brooke Burke at The Grove. David is carrying their two year old daughter Heaven, along with the diaper bag, and you can barely see 8 month old baby Shaya’s head poking up from Brooke’s jacket. Brooke also has two daughters from her marriage to plastic surgeon Garth Fisher.

KARINA AND MAXSIM: WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?
Filed Under: Dancing With the Stars > Karina Smirnoff > Maxsim Chmerkovskiy > New Couple

It’s apparent that “Dancing With The Stars” pros Karina Smirnoff and Maxsim Chmerkovskiy are in the throes of a new romance. They’re both Ukrainian and look like a great match, but it IS odd that the show has been on for seven seasons and it took until NOW for them to hook up. Maxsim says they have actually known each other for fifteen years. So they’ve been friends for a long time and the relationship just turned romantic. At least they know what they’re getting into.

CARRIE ANN INABA THROWS HER WEIGHT AROUND

Dancing with the Stars judge Carrie Ann Inaba has come a LONG way since she danced topless on a stripper pole in Madonna’s Girlie Show concert tour. She was doing something at “E!” channel recently and she arrived with a huge entourage of hair, makeup, PR, wardrobe, and security people. (Keep in mind, “E!” already provides those services.) Carrie Ann was described as “very demanding, and not in a nice way.” She and her people took over the place and ran E! staffers ragged, running and fetching for them. Her big group even spread out unapologetically into Ryan Seacrest’s area and he didn’t way a word. After she cleared out, E! bought all their exhausted staffers lunch as a thank you for putting up with her.

THE CHORUS LINE GIRLS ARE LUSTING AFTER MARIO LOPEZ
Filed Under: A Chorus Line > Dancing With the Stars > Karina Smirnoff > Mario Lopez > Rumors

Mario Lopez has been touring the country promoting his new book “Mario Lopez’s Knockout Fitness” and we hear he is SORELY missed by his costarring dancers on Broadway in “A Chorus Line.” They can’t wait for his hiatus to end June 3 because – we hear that a number of the dancing girls have crushes on him – and a few of the guys too. Insiders believe that dimpled Mario, who plays Zach, has hooked up with several of the sexy dancers and it’s creating quite a lot of backstage competition and drama. Anyway, we figure that by now, Mario’s girlfriend Karina Smirnoff, back in LA, has decided her best strategy is to ignore all rumors.

CHERYL BURKE IS ENJOYING THE FACT THAT SHE'S ON A TOP RATED TV SHOW

We were accustomed to seeing Cheryl Burke nightclubbing with her boyfriend Matthew Lawrence, who always had a sour look on his face. Since they split up, she’s been rehearsing for Dancing with the Stars and not going out much. If she was down in the dumps after her bustup with Matthew, we’re sure that her hot new dance partner, Chilean actor Cristian de la Fuente is cheering her up. She looks happy here on her way to Hyde.

DANCING WITH THE STARS' JOEY LAWRENCE IS A DANCING DIVA
Filed Under: Cheryl Burke > Dancing With the Stars > Joey Lawrence
We love diva stories – especially when they’re about men. As the Dancing with the Stars tour progresses, the divas in the group become apparent. Biggest diva is said to be Joey Lawrence! He even out-demands Wayne Newton according to the National Enquirer. Joey demands a tour bus all for himself and his family, his own tanning bed, and an assistant in charge of dirty diapers. He also has a long list of special foods and items to be stocked on his bus and in all his deluxe hotel rooms. Joey believes he’s the main attraction and deserves preferential treatment. Some of the pro dancers like Alec Mazo are getting rather demanding TOO but insiders say Cheryl Burke, who dates Joey’s brother Matthew, is the LEAST demanding and most cooperative performer on the tour.

CAMERON MATHISON HATES TO THINK ABOUT WHAT'S LURKING IN HOTEL ROOMS
Filed Under: All My Children > Cameron Mathison > Dancing With the Stars > Rebecca Budig

When Cameron Mathison signed up for Dancing with the Stars he knew he’d be spending lots of time in LA (He lives with his wife and kids in New York) and he really doesn’t like hotels. He has apparently been watching those expose news shows, and acquired a fear of bedbugs and other unpleasantries potentially lurking in hotel rooms. Cameron was relieved when his wife called their friend and former All My Children costar Rebecca Budig who is married to “Bachelor“ Bob Guiney. Rebecca and Bob invited him to stay at their home and they’ve been waiting on him hand an foot. When he’s sore from dancing they draw baths for him, wake him up in the morning and make sure he never misses a rehearsal. Not only did they rescue him from what he calls “hotel hell” but they treat him like royalty.

Cheryl Burke and Matthew Lawrence met on Dancing with the Stars when his brother Joey was on the show, and the romance has lasted almost a year so far. In fact, they’re starting to look almost like an old married couple. (It’s funny how much younger Cheryl seems when she’s not wearing those glitzy costumes for the show.) Last night they turned up at the eclectic Phillipe Starck designed S Bar on Hollywood and Vine.

MELANIE BROWN; HAVING FUN AND LOSING WEIGHT AT THE SAME TIME
Filed Under: Dancing With the Stars > Melanie "Scary Spice" Brown

We were startled to see this photograph of Melanie “Scary Spice” Brown leaving a rehearsal for Dancing With The Stars because she suddenly looks so SLIM! She’s lost all the baby weight and then some. (She gave birth to Eddie Murphy’s baby last summer) Her dance partner, the Russian hottie Maksem Chmerkowskiy must be giving her QUITE a workout! Melanie has gushed about how much she enjoys dancing wih him. We can only imagine what her new husband Stephen “Belafonte” is thinking! Stephen seems to be gaining weight while Mel looks better every day.

CAMERON MATHISON FEARED PLAYGIRL LAYOUT MIGHT KEEP HIM FROM DANCING
Filed Under: All My Children > Cameron Mathison > Dancing With the Stars > Playgirl

“Dancing with the Stars” Cameron Mathison was surprised when he had his first interview with show execs and right away they asked him if he had ever posed nude or anything of that nature. Uh-oh, had his past come back to haunt him? The “All My Children” star laughed and admitted that in 1999 he WAS on the cover of Playgirl, but his pictorial inside was tastefully clothed. When they requested a copy, he took it as a sign that he might be out of the running, and was really worried. He was greatly relieved when it turned out the women who asked for the magazine simply wanted him to autograph it for them.
