As for why it has taken so long for the reality star to show his trademark midsection, Karina tells X17online exclusively:

    "Not showing his abs has been a strategy. I want America to meet the guy that I've gotten to know from our 8-hour rehearsals. We've all seen his abs, and yes, they're spectacular. But he goes beyond the abs and beyond Jersey Shore. I can say tonight, viewers will get a peak at his situation, but not the entire situation. We're doing the fox trot to a hip hop song, and we have to keep the hold and positioning. But I'm telling you, women are going to be yelling at me saying 'Girl, move over, you're covering The Situation.""


Karina, who calls her DWTS partner "Boo Boo" while on set, says The Jersey Shore star is surprisingly respectful ... and definitely has his gassy quirks.

    "Sometimes while we're rehearsing, he'll randomly burp, and even though it was a little shocking at first, it’s the nature of working so closely with someone. But I've realized that whenever he's uncomfortable with a dance move or a situation, he goes to his iPad and starts emailing like crazy."


As for joining the reality show circus, looks like Karina isn't saying no to a possible appearance on The Jersey Shore. Although MTV hasn't asked her yet to make a cameo, she tells us, "I'm definitely ready to get my fist pumpin' on!"

The two may have incredible chemistry on the dance floor, but don't count on a real-life romance. "I love Sitch, but it's a strictly professional relationship," she adds.
