Karina Smirnoff And Apolo Ohno Working On Hip Action And More in DWTS Rehearsals
Thanks to @Jimmbboe (and a heads up from Alicia), below is a rehearsal interview with Karina Smirnoff and Apolo Ohno from E News. As said in a previous post, we would have posted this last week, but, E News took it down (either that, or they moved it and I couldn’t find it?). Anyway, here ya go. Karina points out that Apolo needs some work on his hip action, but, they are full of chemistry, hard work, and fun. Check them out!

Here they are on Access Hollywood as well….
I love these two! Apolo’s answer about Karina and Chelsie was very “diplomatic” LOL
I’m very excited to see these two dance. Apolo is just too cute and Karina has become one of my favorite female pros over the last 2 seasons along with Anna and Kym.
They seem to get along so well! Thank you for these two great clips! Getting excited that it’s only 6 days until the premiere!
Oh man, the pressure is on!!! Team Apolo and Karina are going ot rock it.
Ohyes!!! Those videos brought a big smile to my face. Way to start the day 🙂
Thanks Jimmbboe..
I have a feeling these two are going to bring the house down with their fun Cha Cha. Love them!! OhYes!!
As Bruno stated to Apolo in his previous season… The Apolo Syndrome has taken over the Country…
Nice interviews.
Interesting that Karina says the dances are going to be very short the first week. Couldn’t the show please find time to show at least normal length dances?
I found that interesting as well #Karen, about the first dances being shorter. This is not the first season that we’ve had more than 12 pairs, but the first time I’ve heard that the premiere routines are shorter to accommodate.
Geez, just cut out the judges intro – we already know those clowns since it’s the same group it’s been since pretty much day one – and do away with Bruno’s long winded ramblings and we’d have enough time for everyone to do their full routines.
Love this pair !!!! (although I still think it shoulda been Apolo with Chelsie and Helio with Karina – JMO)
With the song they have, his talent, and Karina’s choreography….people will probably get up and dance 🙂
I think this is going to be a great team and I love Apolo’s energy, cuteness and charisma. But, I don’t feel he has the same connection with Karina that he had with Julianne. Despite that, I think he will try and win the MBT again, so I hope we will be treated to some fun and fine dancing.
These two have great chemistry, and are definitely among my faves. Can’t wait to see them dance!
