Karina Smirnoff And Slavik Kryklyvyy Light Up Russia’s State Kremlin Palace
Dancing With The Stars pro Karina Smirnoff and her former dance partner, Slavik Kryklyvyy, are currently doing Dance Legends in Russia at the prestigious and historic State Kremlin Palace. Below is some video coverage and a picture that came out after the show. Thanks to Jim and DWTSgossip for the heads up! Beautiful…
They look fantastic together. They are icons in the DanceSport community, so it makes me VERY HAPPY to see that they have started to make appearances together!
I hope DWTS will invite them to dance. I know Slavik is not particularly fond of the show, but many viewers would enjoy them so much.
The only trouble with that video snippet is that it’s too darn short!
Karina is such a legend and a goddess — beautiful, intelligent,incredibly talended, a highly respected name in dance, a top-notch choreographer… my favorite pro/dancer ever. In a way, I’m glad she was eliminated early — she didn’t have to deal with Sean Avery and she got to reconnect to her roots with Slavik. Fantastic!! I missed her SOO much this season.
Seriously, though, can’t Slavik smile for at least one picture??
I agree Susan. Too short. I hope someone posts longer videos soon.
LOVE her. So beautiful. She along with Tony and Louis are the most decorated pros on DWTS and possibly in the world and ABC treated her like rubbish this season. What Karina did with JR Martinez will be remembered for years to come. Their Rumba still hits me (deserved a 30 if you ask me). Nice to see her with Slavik again. Nice to see she can 1-Up the other pros by being the only pro to perform at a stately palace
Absolutely beautiful! AS a dance couple, Slavik and Karina are totally awesome!
Being a “most decorated” pro on DWTS means relatively little, considering that you have Tony and Louis, both in their 40’s if I’m not mistaken, going up against people in their 20’s. Yeah, if you’re the oldest person in the room, you SHOULD have the most medals. And unfortunately for them, it does nothing for them on a TV show – it just makes them more set in their ways.
I do agree about Karina though, and how amazing she is. But one upping other pros by performing at a palace? I’m sure the others are just devastated. :::rolls eyes::: Especially those making coin on their own tours this summer.
I really do hope they can perform on DWTS next season. That would be Awesome!
