DWTS 12 Prepping For The Finals – Maksim Chmerkovskiy And Kirstie Alley Talk On Their Dances, One Of Their Songs, Their Costumes, And More (Videos)
We have some more interviews with Maks and Kirstie. Here they are with E News dishing on their relationship and if they will keep in touch. E News asks if John Travolta will be in the audience Monday night to watch Kirstie in the Finals. Kirstie said she talked with John last night but, he’s not sure. He’s an “unpredictable friend” and she likes that. 
They also mention one of their songs is from P!nk! Get ready for some “revealing” on Monday night.
Here the two are with Mark Steines from ET Online. Watch closely because you don’t want to miss their faces and poses in the very beginning (Maks is priceless!). They explain how their dances will go down for Monday and Tuesday. They have two new dances to learn for Monday…. the Samba (which the judges pick) and the Freestyle. They dance their first week Cha Cha (their “favorite”) for Tuesday night. Then Maks and Mark Steines switch roles. Mark Steines Sambas with Kirstie while Maks does the interviewing. Kirstie explains why she’s singing to P!nk’s “Perfect” which will indeed be perfect.
If that wasn’t enough, Access Hollywood visited with the crazy two as well. Kirstie says she’s feeling strong and limber and loves that feeling. She hopes to keep dancing forever. She talked of when she first signed on and how dancing on the show would rally her if she did it. But, John Travolta told her not to don’t do it and just be an actress. They talk of how Kirstie will be wearing her first costume for next week but, it will have to be taken in.
And a fun little radio interview with Maks and Billy Bush >>>>HERE and a tweet to go with;
EDIT TO ADD: Below is Kirstie and Maks on Jay Leno last night as well. Kirstie is funnier than ever. Maks is too when he comes on. So cute together as always and looking forward to Monday night.
And here is a new interview on Extra with Tony. They give more hints on their dances, their future plans, and more. Thanks Maddy!
Oh, I just love them.
No intelligent commentary, just that. I love them.
Thank you, Vogue!
YW Evaine!!
Aren’t they infectious? I just love them too!
These two have such chemistry, they’re so REAL. I love them. Can’t wait for Monday
They are so funny. I love these two to no end. May Team G-Mak live forever!
Thank you for this, btw!
7 & 2? Who is he not in contact with? I bet it’s Willa Ford for sure. Those two were so passionate but like a heated passion so strong that they couldn’t last. I know I don’t make sense but I so miss Willa. She was the one that could’ve gone further if she didn’t disgust the housewives watcing at home. 7 &2? 7 &2?
Tia
Willa
Laila
Mel B.
Misty
Denise
Debi
Erin
Brandy
Kirstie
Hmm…maybe Denise and Debi? I wish he’d mention Willa more.
Its awesome and mind blowing reality show. Most of the viewers like this show and I am a huge fan of this show. I watch Dancing with the Stars Episodes online.
Nathan, I don’t think it’s Debi. I’ve seen him tweet her at times.
Well said about Willa. They were so passionate together.
And YW Becky!
For those who missed Maks and Kirstie on Jay Leno last night, be sure to see the first post. It’s just been updated with their appearance.
I thought Chelsea was on Jay Leno last night?
No, Chelsea was on Jay Leno Wednesday night:

Maks is not in contact with Laila. They are not friends from what I have heard.
There’s also an interview with EXTRA.
Maks did great with Jay.
P.s. Maks and Willa hooked up while she was still dating her now husband. I can see why they’re not talking anymore.
Laila had some not very nice things to say about Maks in every interview.
Awesome. Thanks Maddy! Added it too (is that the right video? I hope so).
I dont follow Maks much so I dont really know. However, just about every season the rehearsal clips of Maks and his partners they are always fighting. They rarely have shown Maks in a favorable way. Im not saying thats how he is but thats how they have protrayed him. But This year though not so much with Kirstie. So thats good. Some of us have had a hard time warming up to Maks. (Im trying though).
I think these two will definitely keep in touch.
I have the feeling Laila is one that he no longer keeps in touch with. Yes, she always said the right thing in front of the cameras but Maks let something slip last season ( I think that’s when it was) that made me think something was wrong there.
He and Laila had quite a row during their season together. He apologized and brought her flowers but maybe they just don’t get along??
Laila”s one for sure. She didn’t have a good word to say about him in a recent interview. Two headstrong individuals butting heads I think. I can’t agree with Laila though, since Maks got her to 2nd place.
Seems as if Maks is regretting getting his tattoo? In the interview with Tony – “I have a big bruise here” pointing to his head.
Impetuous Maks!
With every partner Maksim as had, he’s had words with. Even with Kirstie. Let’s see, Erin hit him with a shoe and Kirstie slaped him. Imo, I think Abc learned their lesson from last season, airing negative outtakes when so many fans had bias or preconcieved judgements about certain celebs.
