Maksim Chmerkovskiy Reveals His ‘Most Challenging’ DWTS Partner
Maksim Chmerkovskiy named his most challenging partner on “Dancing With the Stars.”
The Ukrainian-American pro dancer competed on 17 seasons of the celebrity ballroom show, with a list of partners that included Willa Ford, Hope Solo, and Amber Rose. But it was his partnership with an Emmy-winning sitcom star that proved to be his most difficult.
In September 2023, Chmerkovskiy appeared on Cheryl Burke’s “Sex, Lies and Spray Tans” podcast, where he was asked to name his most “challenging” DWTS partner of all time.
“Oh geez…I would say Kirstie [Alley] because it was twice and a lot,” Chmerkovskiy replied.
But when Burke then asked him to name his “most fun” partner, Chmerkovskiy had a surprising answer.“I would say…I have to say, Kirstie. I’m sorry,” he said of the late actress.
