Earlier today I spoke with 8 time Dancing with the Stars competitor Karina Smirnoff and she talked to me about her partner this season…Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino and why we need to keep them around on the show. We really do need to keep this fun couple on the show, so write down this phone number 1-800-868-3410 and make sure to give them all of you votes after the show airs tonight on ABC at 8p!

The Situation and Karina are doing the Quick step tonight:
She told me the dance “fits his personality really well cause the character in dance is about a guy who thinks he can get any girl and it fits really well with Mike. You know?” She jokes

When I asked her if he will get to see his Situation on the show”
She would love to do that. She said on the Jersey Shore you get The Situation and on DWTS you get to see Mike Sorrentino. Then she added, “I’ll be honest when I found out he was my partner, I was like oh sh!t, what am I going to do. I expected the worst. I expected it to be a very difficult season. But then I met Mike and he is sweet and kind and respectful. He’s very very very funny, he makes me laugh pretty much during the whole rehearsal. I think I got really lucky to have Mike, the real Mike, in the studio. So I do want to showcase his abs yet because that is what he is known for, but I want people to get to know Mike Sorrentino first.”

On The Situation’s personality:
“I think Mike’s personality is his biggest weapon, his secret weapon. When he smiles, you want to smile with him. He’s laughing all the time. He’s laughing at himself. He makes our rehearsals entertaining all day.”

On his improvement:
She told me that he has improved a lot since their first rehearsal. She described how far he has come along by saying, ‘”If you would have seen our very first first rehearsal, it was like a new born pony that just came out of his mom and tried to figure what to do with his legs. I am not exaggerating.” And later in the interview she added that, “He has the potential to go from a new born pony to a stallion!” I agreed with her and said he has the body for it. She replied with, “Exactly that is what I said, ‘Anyone in your physical shape, and your age and your athletic ability should be able to do it. It is hard work, but you have all the attributes to be on top.'”

On her ultimate partner:
“I think Corbin Blue would be amazing on the show. I’ve met him we did a charity event (Oasis of the Seas Make-A-Wish Gala) together. He is a class act. He definitely knows a little bit of dance from High School Musical. I think John Stamos too. I am a big fan of his. I’m half-Greek so you got to support your fellow Greeks.”

On what else she has going on.
She has a shoe line coming out in two weeks, her own makeup line in about a month, and a fitness DVD. She told me, “I’m very blessed with a great team of people who support me and go along with all of my crazy ideas and make them into a reality.”

On why you should vote for them!!!
“We are the underdogs. We came in late, but we are ready to work our hardest and overcome all the obstacles and show the audience we are here to win it…or at least make it through week two!” We laughed over that last part of it.

Can I tell you guys I was surprised by how nice and candid she was with me during the interview. I think we have all had this impression of her on the show, but in person she is so much different. Mike and her really are the underdogs and who doesn’t like to root for the underdog, so please give them your votes! They get two fist pimps up from me!!!
