Now I am wondering who those other two couples were NonieS said:. I just think it's sad and wish that no couples would date and just be in their partnership for the business purpose of dancing I know that sounds horrible!!

I guess what I'm saying is I would never be able to be a Pro and do this for a living!!!! Sad news. I wonder if we'll ever get to see Slavic compete again. I'm glad I saw him when I could. Such a pity - really loved watching them dance. Rumor says that Slavik will do show dances with Karina in I just don't see the attraction of justinas i mean, to me, of : course.
