Entertainment Tonight interviews Ralph and Karina in rehearsals. Watch them getting ready for their next dance a little as well as dealing with the pressure of wanting to do well again. I am loving these two.
Edit to Add: Here is a new video of the two from Access Hollywood as well.
I'm a fashion and music nut....and I have always loved dancing too of any kind. Dancing With The Stars seems to have this way of bringing all of those things together. Derek Hough (one of my favorite dancers) said at a recent Get Healthy event that ‘dancing’ is an outward expression of what is going on inside you. He says that in some ways, everyone dances and it's so true. To TPTB, how about this song for next season's theme song? Robin G Ft. Wilunleashed - A Good Time (Original) // Download High Quality
I think Ive found my favorites this season…..
That’s so cute what his son said.
Is it just me or is Karina the happiest we’ve ever seen her?! She’s positively glowing and giddy!!! I guess when you’re madly in love with your fiance and got a real contender for the season–makes for one happy gal! I’m thrilled for them and I think if Kirstie can keep up with the stamina of it all, we might be looking at these two in the finals. What a nice change from last season where there was so much ill-will, now it seems to be just “feel good!” THANKFULLY!
I’m sure that Karina is absolutely stoked that she has Ralph – who has some natural talent, is willing to work as hard as possible to not look like a schmuck, and he is a nice guy. Although I loved her with Aaron Carter it was obviously a stressful time because they performed well but still weren’t getting the votes – and then with having such limited practice time with The Situation and his bad bad bad pigeon toes, this has to be exciting for her. Whenever the pros have someone good, it really comes through. I can’t fault them for that at all.
Well, he certainly gets the Mr. Congeniality award for the season, and we’re not even into week 2 yet. I wasn’t so sure about this pairing when it was first announced, but boy did TPTB get it right! I think we’re going to see a lot of good performances from this couple, and I think his voting fan base will only grow with each show – he fits right into the demographic, is turning out to be a super nice guy with a wonderful sense of humor, AND he can dance! From what little we saw of their Jive, I’m looking forward to another great performance from them on Monday.
I’m also liking them more and more. Looking forward to the Jive.
I like how they look in this video too – and I’ve seen some AMAZING jive’s out of Karina – the one with Aaron Carter was awesome and absolutely non stop.
Agree with the ones who say that you like these two more every time you see more of them. There just a great pair. So nice to see Karina happy with her celeb partner.Hope they can keep going strong on there dances. Great video of Ralph and Karina!
Just added another new video of these two you might want to see.
Fig, I agree. Karina’s Jives are awesome!
Ralph’s really bringing the right attitude to this process, and you can tell it’s putting Karina in a very happy place. Jive should be another good dance for them – another upbeat performance number. If I have any reservations at all it’s for the true Latin dances. How will Ralph cope with samba and and rumba? Hope they’re starting to work on the hip action.
After seeing that youtube video, I have no doubt that Ralph will knock it out of the park again. Sure, they’re practising in half tempo or so, but he clearly has the technique down already. Just needs to crank up the speed.
