Cheryl Burke & Gerard Butler: Cozy Neighbors

April 22, 2008

Cheryl Burke is being coy about romance rumors between her and Nim’s Island star Gerard Butler — though she does say the two are friends and neighbors.

“You know, honestly he’s good friends with [my dance partner] Cristian [de la Fuente] and his wife — and we met through them,” Burke told Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS-FM radio show Tuesday. “He actually lives in my apartment building, and we’ve been friends for a few months.”

When pressed about a rumored kiss — during a party at Eva Longoria Parker’s restaurant Beso in Los Angeles — Burke told Seacrest: “You know, everyone says hello and says goodbye and kisses each other. Don’t you, Ryan?”

But Burke was more chatty when it came to another man in her life — her dance partner, whom she called, “the most improved guy I’ve ever been with. “And on Monday night’s “Dancing with the Stars,” Burke and de la Fuente earned a 27 from the judges. Said Burke: “He works so hard and he’s not afraid to do anything.” – Brian Orloff

Cynical in Boston April 23rd, 2008

“He actually lives in my apartment building, and we’ve been friends for a few months.”
Translation: We hooked up. He didn’t call. I’m over it.

He is freaking smokin hot.

He HAS done a movie with Jolie. THANK GOD he never got down with that. Well, that he never copped to, anyway.

Love that guy.

Those of you that are calling Cheryl disgusting must be doing that because of the rumor going around about her and Drew Lachey, because Cheryl is a beautiful person, inside and out. Gerard would be lucky to have her, as would any other guy out there. They could do a lot worse.

Gerard Butler as Dracula and a vampire???? He doesn’t deserve a dancing queen like Cheryl. She deserves a prince or an oil magnate. He deserves someone like Naomi Campbell whose maids have complained that Naomi had hit them several times and since he’s dracula, a vampire and a spartan fighter, he can defend himself from those with the likes of Naomi who had to do community service for her hits.
You all sex-starved chicks, have him

Just leave “The Phantom” alone Missy. I’ve had my aging eyes on him ever since and watch the DVD monthly. Perhaps I am too old, but you could be considered too young.

MICHAEL May 24th, 2008

Cheryl Burke has shown class and beauty. And been the
most professional dancer that the show and audience.
could ever expect and more. to hear people tear her down and just be rude towards her is not right or even fair. Is this what we have become? she is living her dream and promoting her profession in the most professional way possible. stuff like this just makes some other little kid choose another outlet that might not be in a positive and healthy atmosphere. to
maybe sit at home and play video games insted of doing something worthwhile in there life. way to go america. you’ve done it again. bra-vo!!
