DWTS Maksim Chmerkovskiy And Peta Murgatroyd Attend Australian Film Awards & Benefit Dinner
Such a gorgeous pair!! Last night, Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Peta Murgatroyd attended the Australian Film Awards & Benefit Dinner at the InterContinental Hotel in Century City, California. You can view more pictures of them at Ghetty Images and Zimbio Pictures. STUNNING! Oh, but, how I’m going to miss Peta’s long hair though, but, I can appreciate ‘change’ and she’s so beautiful. Maks is sexy as always too, but, not sure I like his shoes? 😯 What do you think of how they looked last night?
I agree, I’m not big on those shoes either. I love the pop of color with Peta’s black dress though!
I think Maks looks terrible. The shoes, the weird shirt, the greased back hair, the lack of beard. And he certainly doesn’t look thrilled to be there.
I’m thinking a lot of guys would like to look that “terrible” 🙂
I miss her long hair, but she does have her hair in a very attractive style here. When you look at the pictures of her and Maks together, they make a stunning couple.
There are a lot of pictures of Maks smiling, don’t think he minded being there. Wish my husband looked as “terrible” as Maks. Other than the shoes, I think he looks pretty good.
I think the long hair was mostly extensions anyway. I think she looks more beautiful like this.
I like her hair like this.
I think petas new hairtyle suits her 🙂 i like her dress but not keen on the shoes but then i am not a fan of peep toed shoes 🙂 Maks is a gorgeous man and i love him but that suit aint doing it for me lol usually he looks amazing but this not so much 🙁
Maks is a handsome guy, I guess, but I think his hair looks goofy, his shoes look goofy and his shirt looks goofy. He should talk to Derek Hough about how to dress well. Maybe get some tips. Peta is , of course, stunning, but I miss the long hair, although that style is also cute. The thick halter strap on her dress is too much: it would look better strapless, I think, because she has such elegant shoulders. But hey, I’m nitpicking.
The dress does look like something a much more “mature” woman would wear. (Mature meaning older)
Peta looks awesome!
Maks in this pictures is the epitome of what a thirty-something man stuck in his early twenties looks like. I realize it’s supposed to make him look young and hip, but he looks older than his years.
I like Peta’s earrings.
@katarina
I have to agree with you Maks does look older than his years—-I don’t think it is only the clothes he has all of a sudden aged alot. Peta does nothing for me I can take her or leave her.
Maks is trying too hard to look young and hip. I hate the collar on his shirt, I always get the wanna-be vibe from Maks.
At least I havent’ seen any current pictures of him channeling Eddie Munster with that silly sock hat thing he was wearing for awhile. Thats good.
Peta looks amazing. The shorter hair suits her. With Maks, the shoes are horrible and he should just button the shirt and put on a tie. You’re at a benefit dinner, dress up a bit. And I agree with Donna, he needs the beard!
@Diana, yup..
Thanks for the article with the links to more pics. You guys do such a great job on this site.
Maybe it’s just me but I’m not seeing what everyone is talking about with this couple, especially in the additional pics. Gushing? Happy? Peta looks over the moon for him. I didn’t get the same vibe back from Maks about her.
There was a short video too somewhere by CeleBuzz. He was prompted to talk about Peta and all he could come up with was “genuine.” I guess that is fine but they seemed more friends than lovers. I just compare this to his chemistry with Karina, Erin and Brandy and it comes up short. Again, maybe I’m just missing something because the articles that are coming out are all saying how in love they are. What do you all think?
Er, you do realize the difference between Erin, Brandy and Karina right? One was his girlfriend the others were his PARTNERS. As for him and Peta?? He seems pretty happy to me – he and Karina might have seemed hot together but perhaps that was the problem. Too fiery and ultimately unstable. Perhaps this is a more mature, stable relationship. Everyone deserves a shot at happiness and if Peta is it, good on him.
I agree with Heidi. I think Maks is just as over the moon for Peta as she is him. I’ve never seen him so open and proud to talk about a relationship as he has on this one. I think they will even get married in the next year or so.
Would Peta give up her career to be a stay at home dance mom? 🙂
Also, I agree, Diana.
I think Maks has realized he needed to mature. His clock is ticking….
He even told a paparazzi that he needs to become a better person and change. (I honestly thought he said that because at the time he had blown up at Melissa—well, at least per the edited dwts footage lol).
I prefer Maks with a beard, and I wish he had dressed up a bit more for this event. A nice, classy black suit with a tie and a pair of black dress shoes would’ve looked better than what he is wearing, but to each their own. He doesn’t look the least bit miserable to me. I think Peta always looks lovely, but that dress does nothing for her. It’s so bland. She’s young, she should wear something with some pizzazz and sparkle.
As far as their relationship goes, I think they are very happy together. I do hope they have found happiness with each other, and if so, then that is wonderful. I agree with Heidi, I think Maks and Karina’s relationship got too hot too soon, and since they are both quite a bit alike, it blew up in their faces like a chemistry experiment gone bad.
Peta and Maks do seem very happy and I wish them well. Working relationships are very risky, (especially after a breakup, and we all know how well that went down) so I hope this is “The One” for them both. And we see little baby “C’s” running (or should I say dancing) around… 🙂
I LOOOVE Pet’a new haircut, hate this dress but it would be gorgeous in a different lighter color, like cream or maybe silver or gold….hope she dances a lot more with Derek Hough like they did at Mohegan Sun. Potential for a lot of great dancing, I think.
