DWTS Karina Smirnoff Makes Birthday Wish To Dance With Bronco Quarterback Tim Tebow
Be careful what you wish for! Last season Maks wished to dance with Hope Solo and the producers of Dancing With The Stars made it happen. Over the weekend, Karina made a birthday wish to dance with Bronco quarterback Tim Tebow. Below is more in a take from Haute Livng.
Not one to make much of her birthday, Smirnoff was surprised by close friends with an elaborate birthday celebration that began with dinner at the bustling brasserie. “All I want for my birthday is for Tim Tebow to dance on ‘Dancing With The Stars,’” said Smirnoff. She then went on to say that as a New York native, she is a Jets fan, first. But, like many Americans, she was rooting for the Denver Broncos yesterday. “Tim Tebow played so hard,” Smirnoff said, “and I know that so many fans all across the country are so proud of him!” With the Broncos and the Jets out of contention, she is now rooting for the New York Giants.
What’s interesting, this isn’t the first time Tim Tebow’s name has been brought up. Last week, an insider to Hollywood Life reported that Tim would be asked to dance on Dancing With The Stars along with JWoww, Michele Bachmann, and Herman Cain. They also wrote Ron Paul and Rick Perry will get an invite too.
Sources close to the show tell HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY that several big names, including Jersey Shore star JWoww, have already been approached. Additionally, football phenom Tim Tebow and former Republican presidential candidates Michele Bachmann and Herman Cain will be asked to join the fun. Furthermore, if Ron Paul and Rick Perry drop out of the presidential race, they will get an invite too!
My thoughts? I don’t think any of the political figures above will dance like Miss Heidi posted in the comments of a previous post…but, you never know about “Tim Tebow” or JWoww? I’m not high on the Bronco’s though and we’ll never hear the end of it where I live if Tebow dances. 😯
By the way, be sure to visit the Haute Living link as they have more pictures and more info on Karina’s birthday party over the weekend in Las Vegas including a cute picture of her and Mark Ballas. Thanks to DWTSSeason13 at facebook for the heads up.
So, what do you think of the names thrown around above?
Of course she would want to dance with Tebow!! Who wouldn’t want an fanbase ringer of that size? 🙂 The man could have two left feet and still make the final.
That said, I think he has better ways to spend his time. Michele Bachman?? I think I sense another “Oh come on…” post coming up soon.
Yes to JWOW but no to the others.
LOL Heidi!!
Why JWOW??????
Oh yeah, I’m sure Tim Tebow is just sitting by the phone, waiting for the call from DWTS. He’ll just have to make sure he has enough time allotted for it, between feeding starving children, stopping global warming, and rescuing stray animals. Oh, and that whole football thing. *eye roll* Keep dreaming, Karina…and Haute living 😛
As for why they want J-Woww, Izzy – my only explanation is a) The Situation has already done it, so he’s out; b) Snooki says she won’t do it; and c) who really knows (or cares) the names of those other overtanned, wannabe-Italian boozehounds? 🙂
And as for Michelle Bachman…hasn’t she already turned down the show once? Or am I thinking of some other nutjob?
Karina is not stupid…Heidi is right…You cannot imagine the overwhelming Tebowmania here in N. Florida. No one else would have a chance if the Gators alumnus and alumna took on DWTS. But, I can’t see it happening. Karina would scare him to death. She’s a wicked city woman. 🙂
@Courtney I believe the politician you’re thinking of is Christine O’Donnell?
Gotta disagree with you about both Tim & Karina, auntie – while I acknowledge that there’s definitely some “Tebowmania” going on right now, I daresay there are just as many people that find him utterly annoying. He’s polarizing, for sure. I sure wouldn’t label him as a shoo-in for the finale based solely on that. If he was a pretty good dancer, and managed to be very likeable? Sure. But I don’t see him being a natural dancer, and if his tendency to work his beliefs into every conversation is any indicator – he could run the risk of putting some people off.
And I wouldn’t for a second label Karina a “wicked city woman” that would “scare him to death”. If anything, I have found her to be one of the more soft-spoken, level-headed pros in the studio. If any female pros were to scare him, I’d put more money on Cheryl or Lacey – the former can be intense to the point of coming across cold, and Lacey’s moods are mercurial. But I doubt you have to worry about Karina scaring him away, anyway – she’s too short. At 6’3″, he’d need a taller pro like Kym or a Peta to partner him.
Yep, that’s it 🙂 They all start to sound the same to me after awhile…if you’ve seen one radical Republican female politician with crazy eyes, you’ve seen ’em all.
Courtney, calling Karina a “wicked city woman” was my feeble attempt at humor. I think any of the female pros would scare him to death…and it’s a moot point. You and Heidi are correct…DWTS would, in all probability , not be high up on Tim’s “to do” list. Or even be on it at all.
I wish they would stop asking politicians to the show. They’re just too polarizing.
Kinda doubting that Tebow would do the show but I suppose stranger things have happened! Also I agree with with Courtney that Cheryl would more likely be the one to “scare him to death” LOL
Additionally – LOVED the mirror ball cake for Karina’s birthday!
Didn’t two celebs say that Cheryl “scared” them… Chris Jericho and Chaz Bono.
Please DWTS absolutely no politicians, its just too tiring, and its just sucks all the fun out of the show.
I think you’re thinking of the witch, Courtney. 🙂 Bachman hasn’t been asked PLUS she’s a sitting congresswoman. I don’t see that happening.
Wait, does Michelle Bachmann have, by chance, a teenage daughter who is a Teen Activist? Maybe they can get her on the show…
Karina has denied making the Tebow statement. He’ll probably get a good laugh out of the rumor though.
Yeah she denied it on twitter last night but she likes the idea! LOL
Yup, Karina never said it — apparently Mark confirmed he never heard her say it.
Tebow is exciting about finally being “NFL coached” so he’s focused on improving his game not killing time in the off season.
Herman Cain/Michele Bachman–never. They both don’t need the money or exposure. Both have extremely successful careers outside of this campaign run.
Christine O’Donnell was asked last season;asked fans on face book from what I remember and they talked out out of it because of BP and BS she had to endure
If they want to ask a child of a politician, go for the hot ones….Ayla Brown or even Mitt Romney’s sons LOL !!
Tim Tebow is AWESOME but he is riding a wave of popualrity right now that is pretty much unparalled in the NFL (he has the public support and he simultaneously is showing his religious side as well which is great since I think thats a big part of his personality and life……but have to admit SNL did a great skit on that lol). Maybe on a future season when the amazing ride of popularity he is on is over.
@sheery: the only children of a politican that I would want to see on the show are Chelsea Clinton and the Bush twins (preferably Jenna).
Heidi’ s right, Tebow won’t do it and as far as the rest go, keep on throwin’. Certainly there are better choices. And Karina is a pussycat compared to a couple of other pros when it comes to temperment !!
Tebow wouldn’t do the show. Besides he needs to improve on his game to be a successful quarterback in the NFL. But if he were to do the show, he would be better with Kym.
I think Tim Tebow & Ariana Grande should do Dancing with the Stars (: Tim to be partnered with Kym or Karina and Ariana to be partnered with Derek or Mark (:
[…] month ago, we posted on the far fetched possibilty of politicians Herman Cain and Michele Bachmann dancing on Dancing With The Stars. Well today, […]
