Val Chmerkovskiy Says “Dancing with the Stars” Romances Are a No-Go: “Keep It Strictly Ballroom, People!”

Buy Me A Coffee

Val Chmerkovskiy, the reigning king of the cha-cha and occasional thrower of shade, has waltzed into the drama ballroom, declaring that those juicy Dancing with the Stars โ€œshow-mancesโ€ are about as professional as wearing flip-flops to a black-tie gala.

In a spicy tell-all on the Lightweights Podcast (ironic name for someone clearly dropping heavyweight truths), Val admitted he once dabbled in the forbidden world of partner romance. โ€œYeah, back in the dayโ€”like, first couple of seasonsโ€”I mightโ€™ve had, letโ€™s call them tango tangles, with a partner or two,โ€ he spilled. But don’t let the nostalgia fool you; Val is no longer a fan. โ€œLooking back, incredibly unprofessional. I mean, itโ€™s like teaching someone calculus and then asking them to split dessertโ€”it just gets messy.โ€

Don’t Mix Salsa with Saltiness
Val broke it down with some cold, hard truth: โ€œThe pro is supposed to be the teacher. This isnโ€™t a Nicholas Sparks novel. The whole โ€˜donโ€™t sโ€“t where you eatโ€™ thing applies here.โ€ (Pro tip from Val: Save the romance for the wrap party, not the rumba rehearsal.)

But waitโ€”plot twist! Val, now happily married to fellow DWTS pro Jenna Johnson (aka the actual queen of his ballroom and baby Rome’s proud mama), clarified his past mistakes. โ€œOff-season romances? Sure, go wild. But mid-cha-cha? Thatโ€™s just sabotaging your own choreography.โ€

Shall We Gossip?
Valโ€™s comments come amidst whispers that Gleb Savchenko and Sasha Farber mightโ€™ve been bitten by the โ€œshow-manceโ€ bug with their celeb partners this season. Cue dramatic music and possibly a slow-motion tango to underscore the tension.

Val isnโ€™t here to judge (publicly, at least) but made his stance clear: Keep it professionalโ€”or risk undermining your season. Translation: You might end up with more chemistry off the dance floor than on, and nobodyโ€™s giving a mirrorball trophy for that.

So, while Val has learned from his missteps, heโ€™s offering some sage advice: โ€œDo the paso doble, not the double date.โ€
