Dancing With The Stars Kym Johnson And Ingo Rademacher Media Before Dance Time
The Global Townhall interviewed Kym Johnson about her dancing career and Dancing With The Stars Season 16. Below is how Kym weighed in on her partner Ingo Rademacher who helped her with her nerves last week versus the other way around. So cute.
Gabrielle Reilly: Do you ever get nervous or have butterflies before a performance and, if so, how do you mentally process that to perform so well?
Kym Johnson: I always get nervous, usually I am the one to calm down my partner – but on Monday, the first show of season 16, I was so much more nervous that Ingo and I felt like he was so calm and he ended calming me down a little. Ingo is so gentle and has such a great chill vibe – he is a perfect complement of a partner!
I agree. I love these two!! Also, don’t miss visiting Celebuzz. Kym talks of the new season, missing Maks, and Lisa’s dog being their official maskot this season. There is cool picture of her and Ingo too.
“I do miss Maksim, but he is with us in spirit. Sean is definitely getting a lot of female adulation and that must be difficult for his new fiancée Catherine Giudici, but I’m sure she can cope,” said Johnson.
“I’m really pleased with my own hunky partner Ingo because he’s athletic, has musicality and most important he does what I tell him!
“The energy behind the scenes this season is great and I’m really enjoying myself. Plus the fact that we now have Giggy the dog as our official mascot.”
ADDING: Below is Kym and Ingo on E News!! Lovessss….
Kym has also written a new blog for Life and Style Magazine. Below is a little take….
It’s going to be important for Ingo to maintain a great frame and posture tonight, since this is a ballroom style of dance. My goal for this whole season is to make Ingo shine and allow him to bring the best out of himself. So far, I think he is succeeding.
Now that the show is officially in full force, we are working constantly. The cast practices about eight hours a day. I will say that all the dancing definitely keeps you fit. For the celebrities, it’s something new and different. So with Ingo, he’s going to have to really eat a lot this season. Otherwise, he’s going to lose so much weight. Already, Ingo thinks he’s lost about five pounds practicing this quick-step routine! We’re working so hard. It’s so much cardio that we do.
Thanks for all the Kym and Ingo goodies, Vogue! I love our Aussie team. Ingo seems like a nice fellow and Kym never has a bad word to say about anyone on the show. Guess I ought to take a leaf out of her book occasionally. 😀
Hope Ingo can hold his frame. If he does, he could do alright since there’s not too much opportunity for platter hands in Quickstep.
It’s nice to hear that he’s enjoying the quickness of this dance and working up a sweat. I think they are going to do well tonight. yay!
YW!!!! xxx I just wish we had more with Tristan and Dorothy! 🙁
Me, too, Vogue; but neither of them like to talk about themselves so they’re not the kind who enjoy doing the gab-circuit. Hopefully they’ve been using the non-media time to work on making Dorothy super confident with her Jive 🙂
Yep, you nailed it. Can’t blame them. I’d probably be the same way. lol But yeah, let’s hope their tactic works for them.
I LOVE Kym and Ingo! They are soo laid back and fun. Not to mention they look gorgeous together. I am really liking the chemistry between these two as well. Their quickstep last night was great! I totally agree with Louis that they should of had a higher score. Their footwork was the most complicated of all the quicksteps last night and he really pulled it off.
They do look good together, and they seem to get along great and he is smart enough to listen to Kym and do whatever she tells him. I put them in the same category as Aly and Mark. Both couples look good and work well together, but they both just lack something that make them stand out. It may be as simple as Aly and Ingo don’t really have heart warming story story like Andy, or larger than life personality like Kellie that make them stand out.
Kym Johnson is just the cutest! Great photo!
