After the April 4th 2014 Dancing with the Stars episode something
called "Afterbuzz TV" interviewed two of the contestants. Whatever "Afterbuzz
TV" is at least they can afford dress clothes for their interviewers.
Olympic skater Meryl Davis and dance teacher Maksim Chmerkovskiy
talk about that night's performance and so on and so forth. To
be honest I didn't watch the whole thing. But I "scrubbed through
it" and am totally sure that they just kept talking and talking and
talking for almost four minutes about stuff they do. On this
bubble world TV show. They shoot it at CBS Studios on Fairfax
right next to the Grove shopping center and the Farmer's Market.
No it's not the reality dancing show gossip I wanted to bring to your attention. It's not the plot of this video or the character development. Can you imagine dear reader, just why I want you to see this video of Maks at his most masculine? |
