Karina Smirnoff Denies Breaking Up With Mario Lopez

April 29, 2008

Dancing With the Stars pro Karina Smirnoff denies she has split from Mario Lopez.

“We’re going on strong,” she told PEOPLE on Tuesday. “As much as I love and appreciate the attention, this isn’t true.”

She adds: “For the record, I am not moving out. Everything is great.”

In her production trailer was a bouquet of roses. “These roses are from (Lopez) and they certainly are not a farewell gift,” she says.

The pair, who met during Dancing’s third season, never publicly acknowledged their relationship — until now — despite the fact that they were living together in Lopez’s Los Angeles home.

A source had said Smirnoff was moving out of Lopez’s digs. Smirnoff also was spotted recently with E! Entertainment personality Michael Yo. The two were seen dancing at a recent event at Hollywood eatery Beso.

“Michael and I have known each for a long time, and there’s nothing romantic whatsoever,” Smirnoff says. “He’s a great guy and I really respect him, but we’re just friends.” — Reagan Alexander

Karina said in an interview with the radio show “Dave and Jimmie” last week that she was single. Heard it myself.

Catch a clue everyone, this is so simple. Mario has never really committed to this relationship, but Karina has. So she got the nose job, that didnt work, so now she has chemistry with Michael and she is using it to her advantage to push Mario into a real committment. They probably had a spat, she said she was moving out, Mario probably said fine & someone leaked the info. Its a win-win for Katrina. If Mario doesnt cave, ( & he probably won’t) Karina is attracted enough to Miachael to switch to him to make the breakup easier with Mario.

I wish Mario and Karina would break up! They are not in love. They are not mean`t to be either. She is so ugly too. I know she cheated on him with Michael Yo. I saw them together. Kissing and hugging. But I won`t share anymore info with ya`ll.

I like them both a lot.
Also, I wanted to comment that girl who has won on Dancing with the Stars several times that was Drew Lachey’s partner is so ugly and she just got voted on some attractive list (forgot what is was) pretty high and above Katrina and I think Katrina is very beautiful and I can’t stand the other girl.
Also, Edyta is real beautiful (the light haired girl with a tan and blue or green eyes on dancing with the stars).
