Karina Dances Around The Big Question

am i the only person that doesn't think she's hot?!....annoying!!!

Who is she? Related to the vodka? Well he is hot!!

What the hell is wrong with her?!? She is completely stupid and thinks people actually believe her! Control your stupid eye and teeter tottering. She couldn't even answer the questions - that other woman was answering for her. She would just give a stupid look (probably her usual look). She is so annoying and not very pretty. The dudes hot though!

Go have another shot dumbass.

She's pretty ugly.

why don't they just admit it, they were photgraphed she knows it was her, anyway unless something happened. She totally wanted to be taped though and you can tell it was all a set up with that guy telling him come get your girl and her acting dumb saying mario who then she has nothing but respect, hey maybe he was caught again with someone else

wow shes weird ..

she was his dancing partner & she doesn't know who he was? that's hilarious!

what the fuck is wrong with u people? she is sooo fucking hot! her body her smile her voice her accent. geeez you just gotta hate for the sake of hating. anyway as far as her and Mario. I actually heard that she has some Russian boyfriend or something.

she is so ugly and DYING for attention. she would have stood in front of your cameras for hours if someone didnt pull her away.

she is so ugly and DYING for attention. she would have stood in front of your cameras for hours if someone didnt pull her away.

Every single one of them were dyyying for attention- especially that tranny-looking woman who stood posing and mugging for the cameras...these people are ridiculous.

She sounds like she's chewing a gravel sandwich! He's hot.

Mario?? Who's Mario????

Mario is a sexy boy. he is hot!!!

Lemme get this straight. Mario married one of THE hottest women in the world (Ali Landry), cheated on her and can now can only get this lame piece of crap? That's a pretty steep fall you took there Mario. This 'woman' isn't even the least bit attractive! EWWW!!!!

I think Mario wants her to keep quiet about their relationship. She was just being coy (or, is utterly stupid) for the cameras. And, Butterfinger, you are right, they were definitely dying for the attention.

that gentleman seems to suffer from a serious case of gay face.

sound slike someone got dumped after DWTS...lol dumb drunk ho.

they're so stupid. who in the world would say where they were going for dinner unless they were DYING for the paparazzi to come to the restaurant and take pictures of them?!

what a SLUT.
no one likes you, karina or katrina or whatever. get over yourself.

mario definitely deserves much better than you..

they're so stupid. who in the world would say where they were going for dinner unless they were DYING for the paparazzi to come to the restaurant and take pictures of them?!

what a SLUT.

mario definitely deserves much better than you..

wtf, that bitch was drunk or high or sumthin, i don't think anything else could explain her stupidity...and that voice makes you wanna punch her in the face.

Well who ever she is she is dying for attention she wouldt have moved if it wasnt for that man pulling her away she just stood there when people werent even taking pictures some of the time! HMMMM get a life

She is trying to make Mario jealous.Mario has refused to acknowlege that they are dating.This is Karina's way of getting his attention.

Something fishy is going on here. Did you notice how Karina said real softly to that girl: "come on..." And then she acted real coy and acted like an 8 year old, pretending like she didn't know who Mario was. And did you notice how that girl kept answering for her? I think she's dying to tell the world about her romance with mario.

I think she is doing this to get Mario to come out and admit he is dating her.She is trying to grab his attention with desperate measures

Damn......that's all I gotta say about this....Damn....

I think that it is the other way around. Mario is into Karina. He took her to the AMA awards, his sister's house in Houston for Thanksgiving AND a 5-day trip to Mexico, just the two of them. Karina is the one who keeps saying its "wishful thinking" that they are dating, whereas he's had nothing but wonderful things to say about her. The whole display she put on in the video was very disrespectful to Mario and whatever there relationship is. Maybe she was just using him to get attention for her career.

I don't think Mario is into Karina.He is the one who keeps insisting they are not dating.She on the other hand has been totally possesive of him from the beginning of Dancing with the Stars.She is playing games now to get him back,most likely because he dumped her.

When Mario is asked if they are dating, lately he's replied, "I should be so lucky." She, on the other hand, has said "it's wishful thinking" on the part of us, the fans, and of Mario in another video from October. On Larry King Live when asked if she wanted to date Mario, she said, "he's a great friend and she thinks the world of him." That would've been her opportunity to say yes, but it sounded as if, "I like him as a friend." Why would Mario take her to his sister's house and on vacation if he wasn't interested in her? I agree that the video with the new guy is to get Mario's attention in some way. Maybe Mario has given up trying to get her over the "friend" hurdle.

Karina and that other guy??? uhh, does NOT make a good pair.

Supposedly Mario told "Extra" he takes those pics of Karina with the other guy with a grain of salt. That guy is her ex-dance partner, and Karina says she and Mario had a good laugh about how those pics have gotten blown out of proportion.

i was there,i promise you that wasnt her dance partner hes never danced in his life, we just met her that night and it was def a set up for more press to stretch her 15 min. into 16ish

If the other guy was a set up to extend Karina's 15 minutes of fame, does that mean she is not "with" Mario and wants everyone to know that?

If Karina says things were blown up out of proportion,then why was she pretending not to know who Mario is?Something does not make sense here

The missing link to this story showed up in "In Touch" this weekend. Mario was in Florida w/ his cousin and his wife Dec. 3 and was seen chatting/hugging with an attractive brunette for a few hours. Karina is definitely trying to get Mario's attention or match him "tic for tac" every time he is "with" someone else, it seems.

That's what I've said.She is trying to get his attention.It seems it worked.They were seen together in LA,kissing.

So are you saying that Karina just met that "other guy"? or are they dating???

Mario and Karina were seen kissing at the Maxim Hot 100 party at the end of last week-days after Karina was shot kissing that other guy. Mario still maintains that he and Karina are just "friends out for a good time." That's what he told People magazine. I think Karina knew that other guy and used him and JC Chasez for "dates" when Mario starts looking elsewhere.

Why do you think Mario keeps insisting he and Karina are "just friends"? Is that coming from his perspective or because Karina refuses to "date" him?

Karina is just hanging out with other guys to get Mario to want to be with her.So far he refuses to acknowlege any relationship between them,except just friends.I don't think Karina is refusing to date him,I think she wants to date him.The other possibility is that Mario and Karina are both single and unattached and are just having fun,no real commitment

Does anyone know who this mystery man is and if he and Karina really dating?

Karina claims that the guy in the picture his her "ex dance partner" and that her and Mario had a good laugh about all of the attention these pictures are getting. She has said about dating that she "is keeping her options open." If she wants to date Mario, what stops her? He keeps saying he would be lucky to date her, when asked. But she says it is "wishful" thining. Maybe she's protecting herself from his wandering ways? On Mario's part, I'm not sure why he would take here to his sister's house for a holiday out of state if he wasn't interested in her.

The guy in the picture is NOT her ex dance partner. Of that you can be certain. So if he is not her dance partner why would she say so??????

According the National Enquirer (so who knows how true this story is) Karina was furious at the pictures that were released of Mario and her in Mexico and accused him of setting it up for publicity. Allegedly, Mario dumped her right after the vacation. And the pictures with this guy "Matt" at her are an attempt to show Mario she moved on. What's weird is that a couple of days after these pictures with "Matt" Mario and Karina were spotted kissing at the Maxim 100 party. It seems like game playing all the way around. How long is the Mario/Karina thing going to last?

ok this MATT person is in NO WAY one of her former dance partners. i dance and karina is seriously a big deal in the ballroom/latin dance world... she's never partnered with that nobody. if you don't believe me google her and click any dance profile link you see, slavik and louis have been her partners.

Okay, so she lied and it's not her dance partner, but do you think it's because Mario gave her the cold shoulder after Mexico or what? And then she is with Mario a few days after these pictures were taken?

Yeah mario and karina were seen kissing at the maxim party.

Does anyone have the latest on this story?Just wondering...

I think Mario is using Karina for a good time until something better comes along.He would be a fool to see only her. She is so ugly. Mario doesn't want to ruin his chances so getting a pretty woman. She is probably hot in bed. Let's see what happens on New Year's eve.

Well, they were both in Las Vegas New Year's eve, yet no stories/pics have emerged with the two of them together.

Mario and Karina were together at Moon Nightclub in Las Vegas on New Year's eve.

Oh,they are not a couple! What goes around comes around. After what he did to Ali he deserves some one like Karina. What a filthy thing to do to someone you are suppose to love. I don't think either one has any morals. She is so trashy acting and ugly.What is he thinking. Some of his friends need to get through to him.

I think people need to stop judging Mario for his past.Who isn't a sinner?We all are.I hope he's happy,whether he is with Karina or not.
I don't think she is ugly.She is hoever trying to get media attention. I think she is with him and wants the relationship to continue.

Does anyone have any links to pictures of Mario and Karina in Vegas on New Years Eve?

how do you know they were at moon in vegas? where did you read that? do you have a link? thanx

Go to vegas.napkinnights.com Select destination Las Vegas.In the left hand column you'll see various parties. It's under New Year's Eve at Moon. There's just 1 picture of the two of them. Mario was in Vegas from Dec. 29 through New Year's Day. Obviously, he chose to spend New Year's Eve w/Karina. Now, that's Thanksgiving and New Year's Eve...two major holidays they've been together. It's hard to figure out whether they are just having a good time or really trying to give this relationship a chance. Will he still dog her?

It was just announced that Mario was going to host the "Miss America"pageant on Jan. 29. In the press interview, he downplayed reportss that he was linked romantically to Karina. Why won't he acknowledge a "romantic" relationship with her?

No, he didn't just recently down play them, the article is talking about things that have happened to Mario in the past, and he has downplayed reports that he and karina are dating. but i think now it's pretty clear that they're more than friends. thanksgiving, and new years? come on, we're not retarded.

but, yeah it didn't mean that while they announced the miss america thing, he downplayed reports. it just meant he has in general done that. but, actually he hasn't recently denied it!

No, he didn't just recently down play them, the article is talking about things that have happened to Mario in the past, and he has downplayed reports that he and karina are dating. but i think now it's pretty clear that they're more than friends. thanksgiving, and new years? come on, we're not retarded.

but, yeah it didn't mean that while they announced the miss america thing, he downplayed reports. it just meant he has in general done that. but, actually he hasn't recently denied it!

he didn't downplay the reports in a press interview for miss america. it never said that. they would've had quotes of him downplaying the rumors if that was the case. the article was discussing certain things about mario and all they said was that mario has indeed, in the past downplayed reports of a romance because the article is just giving info about recent things happening with mario. as far as their ralationship now, things appear, especially after new years, to have changed since then. and he hasn't denied it in a while but they're confusing, so ,we'll see if they try and lie again!

What a puzzle. Maybe they are just really good friends. The kind of friends you spend a weekend or week with.

he downplayed them. he didn't deny them like he used to. to downplay just means to talk of something while reducing the quality of it. so he was probably just not admiting them, but not denying them. that would be downplaying it. but hey, that's a big step up from karina saying "who's mario?". it seems to be getting closer to admiting it.

and to the previous comment about them being just friends? that thought went away in everyones head after the mexico pictures, the thanksgiving, and the new years. everybody knows there is no way they're JUST friends. they might not be seriously commiting yet, but there has been to much evidence for anyone to believe there past denials.

check out the paparazzi video coming out of social recently posted by x17. he seems, with that smile, and answer, to being alot closer to admitting it then he used to be. and now that we know he was with karina on new years, i think it's pretty obvious that he knew coming out of the club, that he would be seeing her on new years. but instead of saying "yes" he says he doesn't know what his plans are yet. that's just his way of not admitting things, yet not denying them. that's probably exactly what he did in the miss america interview. downplayed, but didn't deny. just a step cloder to admitting, because they both know, that we all know.

He obviously knew that he was going to be seeing her on New Year's as the "Dancing with the Stars" tour had planned to be in Vegas on Dec. 30. So, he is constantly dodging the truth. She must be in on accepting the "party line" of "we're just friends out having a good time," which is what he said at the Maxim party (where he was kissing and hugging her) or I would be ticked if I were her, with the fact that he doesn't want to admit there's anything romantic going on. You could understand why they would't want to admit anything while the show was going on...not cool for a teacher to be intimate with a student...but now, a month later, come on. Maybe they are just friends with benefits. Apparently with Ali Landry he was smitten, and she resisted him but he kept pursuing her till she gave in. Maybe Karina knows his past and his hesitant to date him?

Well, two weeks ago at the Maxim party he was interviewed directly and he said, "we are just friends out having a good time" when asked about them dating. Clearly, he did know coming out of Social that he was going to see her in Vegas. I could understand while the show was going on that they didn't want to admit anything, but now a month later, what's the point? Maybe they are just friends with "benefits." Maybe she can't get over his past with Ali. If I were her, I'd be upset that a guy who keeps kissing me in public, takes me to Mexico and his sister's house, keeps saying we are "friends." It makes me think she's okay with it.

Thanks to all who have posted.I think Mario will be great as host of Miss America.The photo of Mario and Karina in Moon nightclub looks like they are very close.I think they are definitely a coulple.Can't say I blame Karina.He is hot.

He is hot, but I still believe that Karina is the one who doesn't want to "date" him. I think he's pursuing her for the most part. Look at the evidence: he hasn't really been seen with any other woman at an event but Karina since "Dancing with the Stars" began. She has been seen with two other guys. He invited her to Thanksgiving and Mexico. She keeps saying, "it's wishful thinking" they will have a lasting relationship beyond friendship because she lives on the East Coast, he on the West etc.Also, I'm sure she is well aware of his reputation for cheating and his divorce. If he doesn't want to be in a relationship with her, how come he hasn't moved on? There's a million other women out there who would go out with him.

Karina is protecting herself as she knows he is likely to cheat on her or break up sooner or later.Mario is the ultimate bachelor.He doesn't seem ready to settle down.He is with Karina now,but no one believes it will last.I think she's being smart and trying to protect herself from eventually getting hurt.

Those who envy Karina will probably find themselves feeling sorry for her eventually. Mario's reputation is that he is a womanizer. His career is just beginning to take off in a different direction and I don't think he wants to be labeled as taken. He won't have to answer to her as long as they are just friends. He may care for her but he will never be true to her.

Agree 100 percent with above post

im kind of amused by all of the people who think mario is actually telling the truth about being jusst friends with her. do you know how every celebrity who says that ends up being caught lying about it. it's amusing. they've already been caught lying about it several times and all og you still believe it? WOW. for goodness sakes they probably just want privacy.

p.s. everyone that was on the show says they're dating. and they actually know them. come on people!

well, you would think they would be tired of answering the question. Why don't they just admit it. Does media scrutiny increase that dramatically by admitting that you're dating someone vs. being just friends? Maybe they are friends with benefits. Although I don't know how Karina could emotionally resist him this long. Do you think once a cheater always a cheater?
On another note:
Interestingly, both of them are slated to be in Detroit on Saturday. She will be at the Palace for "Dancing with the Stars." He will be at a GM Style show.

you make a good point. you'd think it would be easier on them once they admit it. my guess is, that during the show they wanted people to focus on their dancing not their dating. and if they admit it now they would look like they lied before. plus mario probably hasn't had good publice relationships, so he wants to try keeping it private.

by the way the reason i know they aren't just friends with benefits is because of thanksgiving, mexico, and new years. if you're making out with the same person from august to december you can pretty much call it dating. but i think he'll be admiting it very soon, because he doesn't near deny it as strongly as he used to. he used to be like, "it's nothing like that at all, we're barely friends," and now he just plays coy and doesn't admit it, but doesn't deny it.

and another reason why i think they could have been lying is that he's been caught lying about certain things. like on extra he said a long time ago that they were barely friends, and look at them now that the show's over... if he'd lie about that he'd lie about them dating. plus, what has he got to loose? he probably enjoys watching us all fall for his lies.

shanna moakler and willa ford both said they knew that they were dating. and they actually know them and got to see for themselves, so.... if they even say they are that pretty much leaves me with no doubt.

the ONLY thing standing in the way...is what the two of them say. and there's a reason they say it, we just don't know what it is. hopefully we'll find out soon.

once on et karina was at the american music awards with mario, and said there was someone special but it wasn't mario. literally two days later she has spent thanksgiving with him, and made out with him in mexico.

so it looks like she'll just say anything to get people to think that they aren't dating when the reality is.. if there was that someone special would've been the one in mexico, new years and thanksgiving. so again i say. if she'd lie about that she's got something to hide. they were even spotted getting cozy AT the awards she said that. so the only thing that really gets me is.. why have the two of them gone so far out of there ways to make it seem like they aren't dating? there's got to be a good reason. and it's obviously NOT that they're telling the truth, as i stated above. oh well, we'll see what happens. mario kows thay've confused everyone. and he isn't trying to make it more clear, which makes me think that was his poin aaaaaaaaaalllllll along with his denials.

Does anyone know who the woman is that is with Karina in the original video above?

I think part of this whole thing is a publisity stunt for popularity. I for one am getting fed up with the whole thing. I can't stand liars or cheats and Mario has lost a fan. I won't be watching Miss America~

aaaaaaaawwwwwww. i'll still be watching it! it is his private life and i think we all know that he once in the past made a hige mistake in a relationship. and me being such a mario fan, along with all others, am hoping that his relationship with karina works out better than with ali. i DO believe people can change. sometimes you need to make mistakes to learn the right way. and they've pretty much been caught several times lying about there relationship anyway, so for whatever reason they choose to keep it private, i respect that. cuz i think at the end of the day mario's a good kid, and that he seems to really like this girl, and he wants to keep it on the downlow. probably 60% of celebrities have lied about relationships in the past. it's not like you're lying to a close friend. once you let ALL of america know you're dating someone, it can change things real fast. so i think we should all give mario a chance to change. we'll see if he actually does, because i think they're adorable together.

I really didn't even know who Mario was until dancing with the stars. Does he always lie about his women. I know he did with Ali from what I've heard. He said that she and he "clicked" so maybe this is different but I still say he will cheat on her. It is in his blood. I personally think Karina's attitude helped cause them to lose in Dancing with the stars. I voted for them all the way but I didn't know of his cheating reputation. After this comes out in the open the relationship will deffinately change! We will see. Time will tell but. For his sake I hope he has changed.

I hope he has changed too. I think this relationship is actually good for him. I thought it was interesting that on "Dancing with the Stars" he said that Karina made him a better man and that he was dedicating his performances to the two most important women in his life "right now," his mom and Karina. I thought that was something you wouldn't just say about a friend. But being an actor, I wondered if those were just lines and it was a "showmance."

To his credit and my surprise, he actually has kept up a relationship with her after the show, after he didn't really need her anymore. Everyone thought he was going to dump her then.

It will be interesting to see if Karina does the next season of "Dancing" to stay in LA. I guess the dancers don't find out until next month.

To some people dating won't have the same excitement when you are not sneaking around. I truly think they are in love but how long it will last remains to be seen. He was with Ali over 5 years and cheated all the way through and was suppose to be in love with her too but I guess the glow was gone. Maybe Karina is the type who will overlook cheating to keep him if he does. I believe they have one thing in common and that is both love to dance and it is really fun especially with a partner that can make you look good. Anyway it will be a hard relationship to maintain, I really don't want to see her again as do a lot of other fans of dancing with the stars.

I can't wait to see what happens with these two. They are just so cute! I'd say, give Mario about a month or two. Either he'll admit it, or be seen with someone else, simple as that. I'd say they are together, though.

I guess they also spent XMAS together, as one AOL blogger spotted Mario and Karina kissing and holding hands after a Houston Texans game on XMAS Eve. His brother-in-law plays for the Texans. So, that's the trifecta of holidays: T-giving, XMAS, and New Year's that they spent together. If he's willing to spend major holidays with her and his family, it seems as if this is the most serious relationship he's had since Ali. Not that that means anything, if he hasn't seriously stopped his skirt lust. After all, he was with Heidi Mueller through August-September till he moved on w/Karina, presumably.

do you have a link to that blog? or exactly what the blogger said?

I'm a Mario fan too.I can't help it,he is just too cute.He is a bad boy and who doesn't love a bad boy.Maybe he will cheat again,maybe he won't.But I think he should be given a chance.As someone else said,he should be given some credit for being with Karina for 4 major holidays.He didn't just use her and dump her after Dancing with the Stars was over.If he doesn't want to admit it,maybe he's just being cautious and wanting his privacy.He has been judged harshly for his previous relationship,so wants to keep this quiet.I recently re-watched some of his and Karina's dances on youtube,and thet were just awesome.The way these two move together on the dance floor is just so fiery and passionate.They look good together.

i know karina has a show in detroit the same night mario will be there for the gm fashion show. do you think she could show up on the red carpet with him?

that is if one started before or after the other.

well ig guess that question got answered.

all i have to say is sooner or later we'll find out if karina is doing season 4. if she is im sure we'll be hearing alot more about them. if she's not than if they still sate we won't hear as much about it. but who knows maybe karina will move to la. a lot more oppurtunity, and now she has an even bigger reason. wink wink.

There were pictures of Mario doing the GM Style show,but no ord if he met up with Karina in Detroit.Most likely he did.

I wonder why he's such a cheater in relationships, when his parents have been stable and together for so long. I know he said he had attention deficit disorder and maybe that contributes to his boredom w/women?

Maybe he keeps the relationship on the down low publicly w/Karina because if he were to say they were dating he be barraged w/questions about "is it serious?" or "when are you getting married?"

The Dancing with the Stars event and the GM Style event were at the same time; however, did anyone check out pictures of Mario with Maria Menounos at the GM style event. One blog suggested Maria was going to be his new conquest. She fits the profile of women he favors. And, there are pictures of them together.

omg! alert the media, he was seen at the same event with another girl!

he was also seen with vanessa minnillo. does that mean they're dating? NO for gods sake he was there, she was there. they were both there for buisness. they took pics together. come on guys!

even nick lachey took pics with her, and they aren't dating! he's taken!

Yes but with Mario it's different.He's a skirt-chaser,he cannot resist the thrill of chasing a new woman.So when he is seen with someone,people immediately assume he's trying to hook up with her.
Oh well,whatever.It doesn't matter what he does with his private life.He's still a total major hottie and I love looking at him

where are these pictures at?

The pictures are all over the net. Look under Mario Lopez at technorati.com or look up GM Style event. Also, Mario is supposed to be on the Late, Late Show w/Craig Ferguson tonight. It'll be interesting to see him deny his relationship w/Karina for the 100th time.

they were both invited to that event. is he supposed to seclude himself and not talk to anyone? everyone is pictured with everyone. we would've heard if they got cozy or something. come on you guys people can change. i do believe he has been seen romantically with the same girl since august. and that's karina. if he can do that, he has changed somewhat. so just because a binch of people go to an event and take pictures together, it's the wierdest thing in the world that you would single out those two, and say wierd things. he CAN talk to other girls while being with someone else. it would've been different if she was there as his date, but that wasn't the case. she was there and he was there. people always pose on the red carpet together. gove it a rest. they have given us enough drama on their own (probably trying to confuse us), so don't create your own drama please!!!

if mario were to sit in a corner at those events, i'd be worried. give it a rest.

give the guy a second chance to be in a good relationship. we all know if you're making out with the same ONE person from thanksgiving, to a trip to mexico, to christmas, and to new years that you're dating and you're serious. bottum line is he doesn't want us to know about it for a reason we might not ever know. but unless they break up, which we would eventually know if they did, than don't stir up drama just because he went to an event and posed with other celebrities. that's silly.

Mario was on Late Late Night w/Craig Ferguson last night and when Craig brought up "Dancing with the Stars" and Mrs. Vodka (as he referred to Karina) Mario said she can hold her liquor. Craig asked how he knew that and Mario said the show had a long run and that he and Karina had a few cocktails together but he was going to leave it at that. Craig mentioned how Mario was linked romantically to different women in the tabloids and Mario said, "If my real life were like my rumored life, I'd be happy." Craig didn't really push him about his relationship but did invite him to come back w/ "Mrs. Vodka."

Mario also mentioned how his parents had been married for 35 years, and he didn't know how they did that.

so he didn't actually DENY that they were dating? could you be more specific on what he said?

When Craig asked Mario how he knew that Karina could hold her liquor, Mario replied:

"The show had a long run, so we've had a few cocktails, but I'm going to leave it at that."

He downplayed all the tabloid rumors of all his potential romances by saying his real life is nothing like his rumored life.

He didn't deny anything. He didn't say, "Karina and I are just friends." I think he didn't have to deny anything because Craig didn't really push it w/him and didn't ask him if they were dating, like everyone else has.

I wonder if Mario is really ready to have a relationship and not just flings?

He did mention that he will be spending the next month up in Calgary shooting an ABC Family romantic comedy. He won't be home until after the Super Bowl.

did craig actually say "i won't push it with you about this"? or did he just not. because mario could've said before the show don't go too specific or something?

so for those that watched the interview, did you get the vibe that they're dating? like it's just something he doesn't want to talk about?

how does the show running a long time have anything to do with them having cocktails?

Basically, Mario told Craig that because the show had a long run, there were opportunities where they celebrated after the show and had a few cocktails. Mario said he wanted to leave it at that. Craig said he was moving on to the next topic. Mario did say that is rumored life is untrue and he'd be a happy man if it were. I guess that means he wishes he were w/Eva Longoria, Britney Spears and Karina. To me, he kind of reinforced his single image. But he didn't say, "I'm available" like he did that one time to People magazine. It more like he didn't want us to think anything floating around the media about him and anyone is true. Frankly, he seemed very uncomfortable with the personal stuff and Craig changed the topic to football.

well, same old same old. we all know they're dating, and to me, him being uncomfortable with the subject kind of gives it away. so, yeah... we'll see what happens. i know that they're at least dating. they might not be serious yeat but.. for whatever reason mario doesn't want us to know it's his buisness. we'll never know why unless he tells us. thanksgiving christmas and new year??? come on! all the celebrities do this until it is revealed like a half a year later. the thing is it's been revealed several times, but he continues to deny it even with evidence. he's private give him a break.

at least he doesn't deny it as strongly as he used to. that makes me think he's closer to admiting it.

so what did mario do when craig ferguson said bring mrs.vodka back? he probably looked uncomfortable right?
typical mario...not good when you bring up his personal life. maybe he's learned his lesson from past relationships?

i have a feeling we won't hear anything about them until about a month from now. karina's still on tour, and mario is filming a movie in canada. in early february they will both be done. and if things go like they have gone they'll probably spend valentines day together. their trend of spending holidays together will probably stay consistant.

When Craig said to come back with mrs vodka,Mario just smiled.I think he had told Craig before the show not to ask personal questions about Karina.It was quite obvious Craig was not getting into the personal stuff.To me Mario did not come across like he's single and available.He definitely was not pushing his 'i'm available' line.

good. that means he has at least taken a small step towards the truth. im not saying he needs to shout it on the roof tops, im just saying he shouldn't deny it. he should just say "i don't talk about my personal life." but it's kind of obvious after spending all your holidays with the same person. but he seems to be alot closer to when he was on the show.

on another note, i can't seem to figure out why he would cheat on ali landry when his parents had been together for 35years? if your example all your life is a stable relationship, how did he go wrong?? maybe he wasn't ready to get married, so he decided to be an idiot at his bachelor party. i really hope he has gotten better about that!! something tells me he has. karina seems to have been his #1 girl for quite some time. around february or march when the tour is over, the new season of dwts starts, and mario's done filming this movie, we will be hearing alot more about this i'm sure. that is if karina is on the new season, which i'm sure she will be!

I wonder if he's a serial cheater because he has ADD (attention deficit disorder) by his own admission. Maybe he gets bored or can't focus on one person for a long time. Obviously, he's also hyper insecure about himself. It was quite obvious when during DWTS he and Karina were describing the first time they ever met and she said that the first time she met Mario she thought he was "very charming, sweet, talkative..." and Mario interjected, "and extremely handsome." Obviously, being attractive to the opposite sex is quite important to him. I don't know why you date someone for 5 years, get engaged and married and cheat. Why bother getting married unless you are ready to settle down and have a family. You never have really heard him to talk about his divorce and what he learned.

yeah that could be it. hopefully iy's different this time. i think if you are truly in love... you won't cheat. even if you're a man whore, i think when you find a girl that's truly it than you won't have any desire whatsoever to cheat on them because they're just so much higher than any other girl out there to you. maybe mario wasn't truly in love with ali, and so things just happened to end up with him not seeming to care enough to seem faithful. lets hope and pray that this COULD possibly be it for mario. maybe the reason he's kept it so private is BECAUSE he respects it enough to not share it with everybody. we'll see my friends!!!!

You have to wonder why Mario said (to Craig F) he would be a "happy guy" if all the rumors about him in the tabloids were true. Does that mean he would like to think of himself with Britney, Eva and Karina? He'd like to be a player or was that just a throw away line, a front, if you will.

that was definately something he just said to kind of make people think he's single. like denying the rumors without actually denying it. he does that ALOT now!!! but that's better than just full on denying it like he used to. we allo know he's with karina, and i think now that he knows that he isn't denying it as strongly, but definately isn't admitting it.

mario and karina were also spotted over new years watching "night at the mueseam." karina's on tour and they still choose to spend the entire new years weekend together, along with every other holiday?? pshhh. please! at least they're not COMPLETELY denying it anymore. mario's just kind of being coy now. better than what he used to say!

I think what he said was-if all the rumors about me were really true,I'd be a happy guy.I think he meant his dating life isn't as exciting as people think it is.Which probably means he's just dating one person and not several.Also I don't think he is insecure about himself at all.He knows he's a good looking guy and has a lot of female fans.Just go to his myspace page and read the comments from his fans.Anyone who gets that kind of attention would find it hard to stay modest.

yeah i agree. i don't think he meant he would be happier dating all those girls at once, i just think it was a comment he made that meant that wouldn't have been a bad life to have dated all those gorgeous women. doesn't mean right now he wishes he was dating all those women. i think he seems pretty happy to just be dating karina. that comment was just one of his "im trying to make all of you think im single without actually saying im single, because that would be a lie." he's a private guy. what can you do.

All of you who say that Karina is ugly are blind. She is a very pretty girl. Mario Lopez is a cute guy, and he would be lucky to have a g/f like Karina. She is beautiful, talented and smart. She is living in the moment. America made her famous and she is enjoying it. Get your heads out of your asses, idiots.

I think Mario and Karina are not admitting their relationship to keep us all interested.If they come out and openly admit they are dating,there is no interest left in them or their activities.Whereas keeping everyone guessing makes people more curious and wanting to know more.Just look at this post.There are about a 100 comments on it and it keeps going.It has been great to read and hear everyone's thoughts and has kept us all entertained.Their mission is achieved.I'm certain they are really dating,but will keep us guessing as long as they can.

i agree. by mario saying things like, "i would be happy if all that were true," he is making us confused, and keeping all of us guessing. that is his way of making us all think they aren't dating, while not actually denying it. because that would be a flat out lie. he used to that though.

I hope they are. I can't wait till more pictures of them surface on the web! :) (Mario will still fnd a way to deny dating Karina, I'm sure...)

you know i think they are playing the most evil tricks on us. im pretty positive karina did exaclty what she wanted by kissing this guy up here, and i think mario was involved. think about it...they used to just flat out deny that they were dating, and they could, because we had no straight up PROOF of it. but after mexico pictures came out, that was our proof. the show was over, and that right there was our proof. so they couldn't just flat out deny it anymore, so instead they go and do something like, karina kisses another guy. and sfter that look what happened! everyone forgot about the mexico pictures, and were like, "oh maybe they broke up!"

but we now know they haven't broken up, AND that guy isn't with karina at all.hmmmm. that was their only way to get around it at that point. "mario who?" that's all she could say. but it worked. for a while they had all the magazines thinking they broke up after mexico. and karina told entertainment tonight days before the mexico pics that "there was somone special but it's not mario!" proof that that was a lie came out. proof that this kiss on this page was a lie.

all im trying to say is they have gone out of their way to make it look like they aren't dating. and everytime they do, we find out what they did or said was a lie! for whatever reason they want to keep it a secret is between them. but the have most definately been caught everytime they've lied or everytime karina has tried to make it look like she's dating someone else. there's no question that they have flat out lied. and that they're together. the ONLY real question is, why do they WANT us all to think they aren't together, when they know that we know they are???

this being said, mario hasn't lied AS MUCH about it recently. he's still on the denial area, but he doesn't really deny it anymore. he just kind of plays it coy, with at the same time denying it wothout actually denying it.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=ua-jupgy230

check out that link. karina says there's someone special but it's not mario. that was just DAYS before they were in mexico making out, and just DAYS before they spent thanksgiving together. she was flat out lying!

what im trying to say is, if she would lie like that, and be that convincing, than that to me kind of proves, they've been lying evrytime. they'll say anything. i mean i know celebrities have lied about this stuff, but never have i seen someone actually go so out of their way, as to lie about there being SOMEONE else! that's pretty wierd. but hey, thay CAN lie about it, so why not trick everyone?

if that link didn't work, just type in karina smirnoff on youtube, and it should be the first video there.

if it's not, than type in karina smirnoff jc chasez, and you should find it. wow she's a good liar!

Mario is joining 'Extra'.Check out the story and comments by readers on www.extratv.com

I think the simple answer is that they are dating,but not really serious.So it is easier to deny the relationship,then when they do part ways,it won't look too bad.Mario is busy these days with all the stuff he's doing-he is shooting an ABC movie in Calgary,hosting Miss America and covering the Golden Globes as an Extra correspondent.Karina is on tour.They don't have time for a serious relationship.

anyone watched it yet? pretty funny.

Watched it-can't believe she can lie .

On www.extratv.com -'Is Mario ready for romance.He stomps on the rumors.'
This story is to air on Extra Wed Jan 17th.I wonder whats going on now.Have Mario and Karina broken up?

I HAVE THE SCOOP.On Calgarysun.com,there are reports that while filming a movie in Canada,Mario Lopez was spotted wearing a Singelringen.A Singelringen is worn by people who want everyone to know their single status.So,what do you guys make of that.He's obvioulsy single now.

I think Mario might be a spokesperson for Singelringen. Take a look at this website (scroll down to see pics - Karina doesn't look too happy) http://www.us.singelringen.com/Default.aspx?documentId=57
Also, maybe the story on Extra will be about his new movie - I think it's about some kind of romance. Let's hope it's not about him and Karina breaking up.

yeah, mario is a spokesperson for them. he wore it to support them. even the playboy girlfriends were wearing ones. it doesn't mean you're single if your a celebrity. it's just advertisement. i wonder what extra will be about. we'll see.

i don't think it's about karina, because it would've mentioned her name. maybe it's a tease, and it's not even about his real life romance.

I hope someone posts what Mario's story is about on Extra tonight. I will miss it because I am going to the DWTS Tour here in Cincinnati. I guess I could ask Karina in person if I get close enough (hehe).

i will. don't worry. im curious.

basically he said he wouldn't make a very good boyfriend right now, because he's so busy. that's what i expected out of him. that's what he's been doing lately. denying it with out acyually denying it. i get the feeling they're dating, but not too serious because they're both real busy. they could either break up, or get serious when things chill out. we'll see! but he still doesn't deny it as strongly as he used to.

Thanks for posting Mario's story from Extra. The show in Cincinnati was great, but it would have been a lot better if Karina could have danced with Mario instead of Harry.

If anyone watched Extra's Golden globes coverage on Tuesday,Mario and Eva Longoria looke more than good friends.There was a very flirty vibe between them.I know she is engaged to Tony Parker,but there was just something in the way they interacted together.She basically took off his necktie and wanted it right then.He said it was going to be auctioned off to charity and she would have to pay for it,but he looked flustered and blushed a little.It was meant to be a funny moment,but I swear I could see the chemistry between them.

so what! of course they have chemistry! they've known each other a long time, care about each other, and that's that! she's taken, he's most likely (privately) taken, so there's just a really good fun friendship there. jeez!

so what if they have chemistry! they've been friends for a long time, and they care about each other! but she's taken and he's taken (most likely) so that's that! i love seeing them together because they're just cute friends, in my opinion. they've both said they care about each other like brother and sister. seriously stop making big deals out of things! if they wanted to date, they would've because there was a time when they were both single and knew each other. sometimes real good friends that make each other lauch and smile some off as flirty, when in fact it's just a natural chemistry between friends.

I just found this on a website about the DWTS tour ... "Yesterday Giselle replaced Irina too. She has also "danced in" for Karina. Brian said Giselle prepared to take Karina's place in the jive he and Karina perform. She got the whole dance in twenty minutes. They performed it that night and nailed it. Giselle replaced Karina in some of the other dances, too. Now they are bringing another dancer into the show, Anya Katsevman."
Does anyone know what's happening with Karina. Is she leaving the tour?

Eva and Mario have been said to be friends with benefits in the past.

Saw the "Extra" clip w/Mario, and it was really frustrating because you don't what he was asked, the way they edited the show. The voiceover said that Mario had some "coupleless" news for us, which was, "I wouldn't make a really good boyfriend right now." But he was all shady when he replied because his eyes were darting around. He couldn't look the interviewer in the eye. He didn't say it w/ a lot of credibility. His tone was one of a liar. Obviously, he has a million things going on right now and Karina is on tour, so their paths weren't going to cross any time soon due to scheduling conflicts. I just don't get why you would spend every major holiday w/someone and then say two weeks later you aren't good boyfriend material. Maybe that's is out w/her so he can do what he wants, when he wants, without feeling guilty about it. She knows the score, so to speak.

i think because he's so busy, that's the only reason he said that. [lus she's on tour. but you just watch , if mario is too busy now, he'll be done filming in canada, and she'll be off tour at the same time. that's also when valentines day is. im thinking they just aren't very serious right now, BECAUSE of scheduling conflicts. they're dating, but maybe not buyfriend and girlfriend. maybe that'll change in february, when both their schedules chill out. thats also close to when dwts comes back. trust me we'll be hearing alot more about it then. and if their holiday streak stays the same they'll probably be spending valentines together. and yeah mario did look like he was lying a bit in that extra video. like i've said i think they're in more of a relationship now, than they were on the show, or at least closer to admitting it. i say that because they don't deny iy as strongly.

I know a lot of us here want to see Mario with Karina and I'm a big fan of his,but I just don't think it will happen.I think they will break up soon.Mario,much as I love him,cannot be with one woman.I think he likes playing the field and being available.He is the ultimate bachelor.

welll he's lasted this long JUST with her it seems. spending all his holidays with JUST her. time will tell how long it will last. i think he's changed since ali. i think even though he made a mistake, he wants to have a solid relationship. he's just so busy right now, maybe he'll have to wait till both there schedules clear a little bit to become more serious.

Well celebrities do break up often.Due to their lifestyles,it is more difficult for them to maintain relationships long term.That is what I fear for Mario.He may be with Karina and want a steady relationship,but you have to remember he is in the limelight now.His popularity is rising and he is in demand.DWTS made him a household name.All of this combined with his busy schedule can wreak havoc on a relationship.I hope it doesn't happen,because I like him and think they make a cute couple.Karina seems to be able to handle him,with his ADD and all,and they definitely have sizzling chemistry together.

I hope Karina is not leaving the DWTS tour. She is the only reason I bought a ticket. I don't really care about the others - I just would like to see Karina (and Mario) dance in person.

I have not heard that Karina is leaving the tour.I wish Mario had gone on tour,I would definitely have gone to see them.Together they are on fire on the dance floor.

Well, Mario is at it again. Apparently, he's done some more interviews this week w/Miss America coming up, and this is latest comment regarding Karina: "She's been busy doing the tour. She's a good friend. She's a great person. I have nothing but respect for her, and I think the world of her." That was a quote in the National Ledger. Again, you don't know what the reporter asked him. How the question was phrased, but considering Mario told "US" right after T-giving that he had "nothing but love for her." It sounds as if he's backed off.

it sounds, as i've said begore, that mario is just playing coy. he's not exactly denying anything but not exactly admitting anything. i think he's so busy and she's so busy that they're not boyfriend and girlfriend, but are obviously dating. but if february, when both their schedules cool off, i have a feeling that's going to change. when dwts starts back up in march, i have a feeling we're going to see alot more of them together. because mario doesn't really DENY it anymore. so i do think they are closer than they were to at least kind of admitting it. just when i think they're just friends, they do something that completely changes my mind. so that whole "just friends" thing sailed a long time ago in my book.

so what's the latest? i assume we won't be hearing too much until february/march when schedules cool down, and dwts starts back up.

Not much news now.Of course,there's the Miss America pageant on Monday ... we shall see if Mario falls for a contestant.I'm sorry,I love Mario,but I don't think I would trust him around so many beautiful women.

latina.com said Mario may fall for the winner of Miss America.Karina can't be happy right now.

i think he's hopefully learned from the past. i mean i know they're at least dating, and not really seeing other people. but hopefully mario will go in, do his hosting duties, which will probably REQUIRE flirting while hosting, and then leave back to karina. it seems to me they've been exclusive with each other these pats couple months, and not once recently mario has said he is single. so we'll see if he learned his lesson from ali, or if he's going to be an idiot and go after some cheap girl he doesn't even care about. i do have a feeling that in february/ march that we'll be hearing alot more about the two. the tour ends. he finishes his abc family movie. dwts starts back up. valentines day. if things go like they've been, they'll keep playing coy, while spending all that time being exclusively romantic with one another. but he doesn't deny it as strongly as he did while on the show, which makes me think he didn't want people to focus on that, he wanted them to focus on their dancing. and maybe now that it's over, he's just trying to keep it private, cuz of past experiences. plus, he doesn't want to look like a liar. thanksgiving, mexico, christmas, and new years while she's even on tour? come on people! wake up! we'll see what happens. i think mario's already dated a pageant girl. been there done that. messed it up.

Does anyone know when Mario is actually done filming the movie in Calgary?

all i know is that he's done after the super bowl which is in like a week. that's about the same time karina gets off tour, AND they start preparing for dwts season 4.i def see more to come.

Is Karina on DWTS season 4?
I haven't seen confirmation of it anywhere.

well, im pretty sure they would ask back someone who was just on for one season. the only way she wouldn't be back would be if she chose not to come back, which i don't think she would, because i think she is loving this whole hollywood entertainment deal. i wouldn't be surprised if she moved to la.

Mario was spotted in Las Vegas last weekend at nightclub Pure, and to his credit, he wasn't linked with another woman. He was w/Seth Green and some other guy. He usually likes to chat up the ladies, so I was surprised he didn't have another Britney-like encounter weekend. This Miss America doesn't seem like his type anyway. He obviously has a thing for dark haired women/

well. i think the only reaspn we're not hearing much about the two of them is because she's on tour, and he's extra busy too. i don't think they're seeing OTHER people, but i do think maybe they aren't very serious right now because of schedules. how could you be? but in just a couple of weeks mario will be done filming the movie, karina will be back from tour, and dwts will start back. they haven't failed to miss one holiday together yet, so maybe they'll even spend that together. basically i don't know their status, but im thinking busy schedules is the only reason we're not hearing about them two. but they obviously can't get enough of each other, care about each other, and seem to have only been speding time with eachother. we'll see what happens.

I read in Star magazine that Mario is dating Tanika Ray-she is a correspondent on Extra like him

I read an interview with Mario before Miss America pageant.He was asked about his marriage to Ali and he basically said he was young and now he is well into his thirties and is making better decisions.So it sounds like our boy has matured after all.He also said he would not make a good boyfriend right now due to his busy schedule.He did take his family to Vegas for the pageant.

The interview with Mario is on vegaspopular.com,in case anyone is interested.
I think he is coming off as mature and likeable these days.He is not off chasing women in nightclubs.He is serious about his career.He is doing good interviews,and I think he did a fabulous job hosting the Miss America pageant.It did not hurt that he looked so good.

it sounds to me like he is too busy to be in a serious relationship right now. but the fact that he acyually wants to have a solid relationship when he has one says alot to me. hopefully when his schedule cools down in march, and karina is in LA, he will maybe be able to settle back into that relationship. because it kind of seems like, he's holding out for her. i think i can tell he likes her more than anyone else he's been around lately.

I read the interview. It sounds as if he's not even looking to date because he's so busy, and he only spends his social time w/his family. Is he telling the media he wouldn't make a good boyfriend right now or is he telling Karna? I do know that Mario is a Libra and if you believe in astrology at all, Libras tend to to go back and forth between friend/girlfriend, in their minds, about the women they date. It will be interesting to see when he and Karina are in the same place at the same time. Is he really trying to remain faithful to her by pretending he's not available right now?

It will be interesting to see when he and Karina are in the same place at the same time. Is he really trying to remain faithful to her by pretending he's not available right now?

well, the fact that he's not acting available makes me think the two of them are each others number one guy and girl, but maybe just aren't official because of schedules. but i can name you so many times they have lied about certain things, and that makes me think there is definately something there, but because she's on tour, we aren't hearing about it. we'll have to see what happens when the tour ends, and mario gets back in la. it's coming up also that dwts comes back. maybe mario will be in the audience sometimes.

but basically i think he isn't available, because when he isn't as busy, they will be serious. right now how could they date if she's been on tour for three months and he can't even visit her! but i totally love the fact that he isn't moving on while she's on tour, because he could if he wanted. but while they can't see eachother as much right now, or at least till early-mid february, im glad they're kind of holding out for each other. or at least that's what it kind of seems like. this is all just if mario's even telling the truth. anyone want me to show proof they've lied in the past? cuz i have it.

Well, Mario flips around so much when asked to describe his relationship with Karina. First, he has "nothing but love for her" around T-giving then he has "nothing but respect for her" last week. He says they're "great friends" then last week they're "good friends and she's a great person." He's not saying he's available though, like he did in September. He's just saying he wouldn't make a good boyfriend right now and he likes spending his little bit of free time w/his family. But there's nothing stopping him from hooking up w/ some other woman, particularly in Vegas. So that was interesting.

Mario said he doesn't have time to date, and he's really discriminating about what he does and who he sees. Do you think that is to say "I'm not available" to other women-to give off that vibe, or is that to tell Karina I don't have time for a relationship with you or anyone. If he's so discriminating, why did they spend New Year's weekend together. I don't think he's lying about not being her boyfriend.

I don't think there is any real proof of anything anymore. All we can do is wait.

oh, there's definately proof of things. there's proof they LOVE spending time with each other. (or else they wouldn't spend holidays together.) and they know they could date if they wanted. they know they would make an amazing couple. but they're both so busy right now, that they don't want to ruin their chances by breaking up from not getting to see each other. we'll see what happens. i don't know why everyone's all of the sudden thinking he's telling the truth all the time. i know some times of proof when they've BOTH lied about other things, and gone out of their way to seem like they aren't dating. you need an example, just look right above the comments.

and you saying what he says about her is so different. she's a great friend, alert the media, he said she was a good friend. he has nothing but love for her. what so now he can't say he has respect for her? he has to actually say the word LOVE each time? either way you say it, i think it's pretty obvious they care alot about each other. i have a bunch of quotes that would prove that. do they LIKE each other as more than friends? DUH, that's already been proved.

the only thing that hasn't been proved is if they CAN date each other right now. with these busy schedules, looks like we're just gonna have to wait and see what happens when their schedules cool down. or at least when they're both in LA. cant wait!

I just wonder if Karina will fall for her next dance partner...

I doubt if Karina will fall for her next dance partner.Who can come close to Mario?If I was with him,I would not want anyone else.

one of the guys dancing on the tour is named Brian. he does several group routines, and dances some dance with karina. there is a website that is a ballroom dance school that he is affiliated with. while he is on tour, he is giving the people from the website the inside scoop from the tour. he says mario and karina are still together. and the information is accurate, because they get exclusive pictures from the tour. and they said their recent stop near new jersey karina went to spend time with her family, cuz that's where they live. but anyway, if anyone needs to see this page for belief just ask.

listen, mario has been denying it from day one. they've been lying, and i have proof of that. karina did this whole kiss with this random guy, JUST because she didn't know how to deny it after those mexico pics. that worked. it made people forget.

they might not be SERIOUS right now, because of schedules, but they definately are still together. come on guys. anyone need proof they've lied? i have it. they have gone out of their way to keep this private. why? who knows! but mario sure has fooled all of you that's for sure.

What's your proof?
I think Mario and Karina are together too but I don't think there is any proof.
He did look hot hosting the Miss America pageant.

these people that are saying this are on tour iwth them, and actually dance with karina. i think they would know.

not to mention the fact that RIGHT before those mexico pics were taken karina said there was someone special but it wasn't mario. i believed her. i was like, well she wouldn't say THAT or go that far, if they really were dating. two days later their making out in mexico. so she actually LIED! if she's lie about there being someone special besides mario, than im assuming they'd definately lie about just being friends.
not to mention after the pics were taken, they don't know how to deny iy anymore, so karina pulls this publicity stunt with her "ex dance partner" who she obviously got to have her friend rehearse with her.

im not saying there's cold, hard, proof. but there are times, when they have lied about their REASON for not dating. and karina actually went this far to make it look the opposite, which makes me think she has something to hide. it's just way too fishy for them to just be make-out pals. not to mention mario and karina were spotted being cozy, THE night she said there was someone but it wasn't mario. if she can come up with something that made me believe it for a week, than they could have easily done it the whole time. but celebrities do this all the time, so i don't know why it's such a shock to everyone.they just seem to be coming up with better ways out of it. but mario seems to at least be saying he's not available, whichn is good. he still denies it, but maybe protects it by saying, he can't date other women.

what is the link to Brian's dance web site?

once you get there, scroll down to where it talks about dwts, and click on "our jan.30th updates. it should bring you to a page all about dwts, and at the very bottum it gets more recent. in one of the more recent updates it says mario and karina are still together. and that karina spent some time with her family in nj, and brian with his. cuz that's where they're both from. that is all accurate, and their are exclusive pics on the site, that prove all of it is from brian.

if you need further explanation, or the website doesn't work, just ask what to do. i'll try and help.

No lie. That's the proof, then. I'm so happy they stayed together. I'm hoping this relationship blooms to the highest level.

I'm happy they are still together.I hope Mario makes this one work.I think Karina keeps him grounded and he needs someone like that.He has already played the field and needs to settle down now.I just don't know about the distance between them as it seems they live in different cities,and how that would work out.

yeah, we'll see. but dwta is about to start again, so we'll get to see alot more of them hopefully. and maybe karina will move to LA, because that's where everything is. including mario.

If I were Karina,I'd move to LA.

WOW that was really studip.Well overall what I have heard from you guys on your comments I got this:Mario Lopez and Karina were dating during DWTS and after the show they went to Mexico were those pictures were taken and Karina got furious and they broke up. Then this event occured showing that she could get back up on her feet by going with this ugly looking guy and was then spotted making out with Mario a little while later. So I guess that means their back together. Now they are spending practically every holiday together. They are still not admitting that they are a couple but have said that they are linked romantically. I respect their privacy because as most of you know that if a couple says that they are a couple than the tabloids will try to break them up and end the relationship.

I wonder if Karina will be on Dancing with the stars season 4. She was awsome on season 3.

I wonder if Karina will be on Dancing with the stars season 4. She was awsome on season 3.

The annoncement for the next season of Dancing with the stars is expected soon.I would like to see Karina on it,but honestly I cannot see her forming a connection with her partner the way she had with Mario.For that matter,without Mario in it,I won't be watching the show again,as he was the one that compelled me to tune in every week.

on the same website that had the exclusive that mario and karina are still together, they have who the pros are gonna be for next season. (and it's accurate cuz the guy named brian that gives them the infor, and teaches at that school that the website is about, is gonna be on the new season)

go to the website and check it out! it's all the best people. but best of all! karina will be on! woot woot woot woot! can't wait to see if we get to Catch them when their both in LA. maybe mario will be in the audience sometimes to support.

also on that we site it said at one of the shows they gave away fake awards to some of the pros at one of the last shows on the tour, since it ends this sinday. it says karina got most minutes on the cell phone. and then it says "we all know with whom."

so yep can't wait till march 19th when it starts. but right when the tour ends rehearsals are going to start. and mario will probably be done with his abc family movie. yay! they'll both be in LA and won't have to be long distance like they were on tour. but don't expect them to admit it anytime soon... mario probably doesn't want it to seem like he was lying before. besides he's experienced having a relationship in the public eye, and look what happened! everyone and their dog knew how and why the relationship ended. i think mario's just protecting his relationship. and once he gats back from filming, he won't be as busy, so he won't have that excuse for not being SERIOUS in a relationship.

btw some other returning pros included, edyta AND alec, cheryl, kim johnson, maksim, and tony. louis and ashly won't be returning. some new members are brian (guy from website)and a girl named juliann hough.

yay, im pumped!! i love edyta and alec!

What is the website that announces the dancers for season 4?

the website listed above in a previous post. it's not to far up from here. it's a website of the dance school brian fortuna teaches at. he's opn the tour, doing group dances, and a jive with karina. and now he's going to be on next season! so look to that website for the inside scoop!

If Karina got' most minutes on the cell phone award'then she must be talking to Mario a lot and that means they are still together.I think she may be doing the show to be near him.Isn't the show filmed in LA where he lives?
I hadn't planned on watching,but I guess I'll tune in to see her.And hoping I'll catch a glimpse of Mario in the audience.

I hope Karina and Mario are still a couple. They are beautiful together and I don't blame them for keeping it quiet or being coy. I don't know if anyone has noticed but there are some really wicked Mario basher's out there and the tone sounds like the same person or persons.They crucify him and drag Karina into it too.They're all over the internet.Why are people still talking about this Dorito girl?It's so over

As handsome and hot as Mario is, Karina is also a legend in her own right. She is the queen of the ballroom circuit (forget about Carmen) and there's not a dancer out there that comes close to her. Karina forever!

Absolutely agree,there are Mario haters out there on some forums and blogs.I don't understand why people can't let his past go.So he's a sinner,who isn't?We all are.His and Ali's marriage was over 2 years ago.At the present time he's with Karina.And she is definitely a great dancer.And I think she is beautiful.They seem right together.Hope it lasts.

Mario has a smile that melts me everytime.Who can resist those dimples?Karina obviously couldn't.

I think I agree,the vicious Mario haters out there sound like the same person,or maybe the same couple of people.
Mario is doing well keeping his relationship quiet.Hope he is happy,and Karina too.

There's a pack of trolls (same people)that keep dogging Mario & attacking Karina (she's just collateral damage)because it's personal for them. Why bring Karina into it? She came into the picture years later.You know who you are and you're not even subtle about it.Get over yourself and if you can't get over it, get THERAPY!!! He's moved on and you should do the same.

Amen.

Double amen.Leave Mario alone

Hi. I'm the North American Agent for Singelringen. I just wanted to let you know that Singelringen has never paid a celebrity or anyone else to wear a Singelringen. It signifies the same thing when a celebrity wears a Singelringen as the rest of us. It means that they are enjoying their single life. I also wanted to say that Mario Lopez is one of the kindest, most personable, down to earth celebrities I have met.

I have copied the referenced comments below.

"I think Mario might be a spokesperson for Singelringen."

"yeah, mario is a spokesperson for them. he wore it to support them. even the playboy girlfriends were wearing ones. it doesn't mean you're single if your a celebrity. it's just advertisement."

Well he isn't single. And how can you prove that your the agent for Singelringen? And also, who cares?

first of all, the ONLY times i've seen mario wearing that is when he was posing in it FOR your website along time ago. he hasn't worn it recently. we weren't saying you paid him to wear it, we were saying he wore it to support you guys, being a new company and all. and that was a long time ago anyways, so why is it even being discussed agai? i've seen him wear it ONCE back in october, when he was meeting the guy FROM the website, along with other dwts people. and he probably WAS single then. but you really think any celebs wear it? no, sorry that's a lame ring. the pics on your website, are only because the guy from the website or whatever came there and they gave you guys some help with your website/sales. but sorry, it isn't working.

and i don't even think you work there anyway, cuz if you did why would you be on x17? and even though mario only wore it for your website once along time ago, doesn't mean he even was single. hugh hefners girlfriends were wearing it and they aren't single. they were just trying to help you guys out, and get some pics of celebs for your website so more people would want to buy, cuz they saw a celeb in it.

btw you're kinda late with this conversation, seeing as that was a Loooong time ago we even discussed that.

valentine's day is tomorrow. seeing as they've spent every holiday together, im thinking they'll spend this one together too. the dwts tour has ended. the show starts filming this weekend, so she's going to be in LA. and mario is really close to being done filming his movie in canada!! im thinking for tomorrow, if he's not already done, she'll go to canada, or he'll fly to LA. who knows?? we'll see!

From the singleringen agent's posted message,I am just so happy to hear that Mario is the kindest,most down to earth celeb.This is what I have suspected for a while,that he is unjustly crucified by haters who don't even know him.I always thought he had a warm engaging personality and is NOT conceited or arrogant like some people say.Of course,I'm a fangirl and I may be biased,but.i'm still happy to hear that

I hope we hear something about M&K tomorrow.

Strange that I saw this today as we are just talking about singelringen again.On people.com website there's a small article about singleringen and the celebs that wear it including Mario.

not to change the subject but
Jerry Springer will reveal the new dwts cast on Good Morning America on February 21 just dying to know who K will be paired with

yeah. he wore it once when he was taking pics for the website. it was back in october. they got many celebs, including hugh hefners girlfriens, and more dwts contestants, to wear the ring for the website so more regular people will buy it. but does he wear it? no. never seen him in it.

can't wait to see who gma feb. 21st! i'll be watching! also mario was supposed to host this showtime wrestling thing on feb.10th, the night before the dwts tour ended. he ended up not showing up to host for an "undisclosed matter." wonder what it was? (wink wink)

Hope nothings wrong.It's unlike Mario to drop out of a committment.

I'm sure it was nothing personal. It was probably about Karina.

hey, could you post the link to that aol blogger who saw them at the houston texans game? he person who saw the blog and posted about it? or just go into more detail about what it said? just curious..

ok, so you know that brian fortuna website? how an insider that talked to brian towards the end of the your said mario and karina were still together? well, in that same entry they said cheryl burke was dating mathew lawrence, so he came to visit sometimes. when i first read that, it kind of made me think it wasn't as true. but now if you go to people.com, cheryl IS dating that guy! that website, where brian fortuna, who danced on the tour and will be on the new season teaches at that school, he gave them the inside scoop on that WAY before anyone else! that meanse the mario/karina one must be true too! because i am positive this is the website for the school brian teaches at. that's how they get all the exclusive pics!

Any Karina-Mario sightings for Valentine's day?

no, but since they have to be in LA by the 17th of february to start filming, im sure we'll be hearing simething! hopefully. but the fact that brian fortunas website confirmed they were still together, and broke the news FIRST that cheryl is dating matt, we know that's valid, and that they are still dating. but i don't expect them to admit it any time soon. but im sure when the season starts back up karina will get asked about it. who knows, maybe cuz people haven't bugged them about it in a while, they'll at least not deny it? can we get a no comment or something. we'll see.

yay! it's officially true that mario and karina are still together!

brian fortuna, who was on the tour and will be on season four, has a website for his school. people that also teach at that school got the behind the scenes scoop, and exclusive pictures during the tour. and towards the end of the tour he said, mathew lawrence and cheryl burke were dating, and that mario and karina were still together. and now a couple weeks later there was a video of cheryl and matt kissing on E! and they say they're dating on people.com.

so those comments were 100% valid. i already knew it was valid but there's your proof! brian gave them those exclusives before anyone else knew about it. that means mario and karina re together still, because obviously that website is valid! how cute...

That's really cool. I'm can't wait for information from M&K themselves! :)

I want to see more of Mario.Since Miss America on Jan 29th,have not heard from or seen any pics/news of him.Surely he must be done with the movie in Calgary.

Mario is hosting an event on 2/18/07 at Revolution Lounge in Vegas along with Joel Madden host a Saturday event.

cool. i was going to say i hope he brings karina, but most likely he won't, simply because, dwts starts filming, training, and the pros meet their celebs, on monday. so she's probably got to be in LA prepping for that. but who knows, maybe she'll come? after all it's on saturday. glad their both gonna be in LA now.

the event is on saturday the 17th with joel madden at revolution...why did you put the 18th?

oops i meant the 17th sorry

yay for this wednesday! get to hear who the celebs will be on gma!! and m & k are both in LA now, and brian fortuna told his website they're still together!

Mario will also appear as grand marshall of a parade in Hot Springs AK on Mar 17th,St Patricks Day.

on people.com it says mario and karina were kissing bumping and grinding at the revolution club in vegas when he hosted. ill try and find pictures. but, she went with him!!!! yay! don't forget to watch gma on wednesday everybody!

if you want to see that on people.com, go to people.aol.com and than at the bottum it says "caught in the act" las vegas addition.

So now we know.They are together.Whether it's casual dating or serious,we will find out in time.

well, im pretty sure it's serious if she's met his ENTIRE family, and spent thanksgiving and xmas together in houston. and now that we at least know that they're together, we know that mario's lied this year. so don't start believing him if he doese it again. he just wants it to last, probably.

the celebs were announced on gma!!!!

Very exciting that Karina is on Season4, dancing w/Billy Ray Cyrus. Good news that Mario and Karina are still together and now she will be in LA for the next few months. Found a really cute picture of M&K from New Year's Eve, where she has her hand on his knee. link: www.hype1.com/las vegas. Scroll down to nightlife box/celebrity sightings. The picture is toward the bottom. No pictures found from last weekend at Revolution, though. I guess a 5-month relationship is significant for Mario, but still the honeymoon stage. Give it some time to see how it will unfold.

yay! on wireimage.com type in mario lopez and there's a picture backsytage from the gm runway yesterday. man! he's even taking her to all these events! pretty coooool!

On wireimage do you have to pay for a subscription,because I couldn't find the picture of M and K

you have to pay to enlarge the picture, but not to see that it's there. type in mario lopez, and it's in the second picture category.

Mario being seen at events w/Karina is consistent w/his behavior. He always has had some female guest. What is different is that she has been his "date" now, dating back to October. He is also some celebrity guest tonight at the Gala awards, so it will be interesting if she accompanies him there. I wonder how long they've really been "dating?" Since after DWTS or before?

well, think about it. they've never once said they were dating. they've gone out of their way to make it look like they aren't. we know now that they are. karina would lie like she did on ET at the ama's and say their was someone else, and then 2 days later make out with mexico with mario. mario said the night before the finale, that karina and his relationship after the show would consist of Emails on holidays. but, than they spend all the holidays, and ALL their time together. they even made time for each other when she was on tour.

so what im saying is, if they'd lie about that than, they've obviously got no problem with lying about just being friends. even though they seem to be more serious now, and haven't denied it lately, it looks to me like they've been lying the whole time. and going out of their way to do so. mario said the third week that karina was dating someone else. than she makes out with mario at that pool two weeks later! come on you guys... the've been dating since mario broke up with heidi mueller for karina, RIGHT when dwts started coming on.

hopefully, since the spotlight's not really as much on them on dwts and stuff, they'll tell the truth, or at least say no comment. and all that stuff i mentioned above about karina and mario lying, well these pictures above the comments, in my opinion, was staged, because after the mexico pics, she didn't know how to deny it anymore, so just had to make up something else. cuz think about it. mario and karina were making out a week later.

they've been dating this whole time, and i have more examples of lies if you want me to share them, just tell me. they've been better about not denying it thoug, and have been spending TONS of time together since she got off tour.

Mario was on GM 6th Annual Ten fashion show Feb 20th at LA Paramount studio.Pictures of him on the runway are at wireimage.com.Also is a celeb guest for Heal Breast Cancer's Excellence awards gala at Sofitel hotel today.

well, think about it. they've never once said they were dating. they've gone out of their way to make it look like they aren't. we know now that they are. karina would lie like she did on ET at the ama's and say their was someone else, and then 2 days later make out with mexico with mario. mario said the night before the finale, that karina and his relationship after the show would consist of Emails on holidays. but, than they spend all the holidays, and ALL their time together. they even made time for each other when she was on tour.

yay! maybe he'll bring karina! he's brought her to pretty much everything since she's been off tour. but if she doesn't come, it could be because she's training with Billy Ray Cyrus. she very well could go though. she went to the GM thing with him, and vegas! and that was right before and after they started trainging for dwts. so obviously she's making alot of time for mario.

I do wonder, though, how good of a dancer Billy is going to be. He's married, so there's no hope of cheating there. And I also wonder if we'll see mario in the audience or out on the town after the performance. After all, Billy won't have much time to spend with Karina since he has wife and kids.

I'm certain we'll see Mario in the audience for DWTS.He'll be there to support Karina.

I'm certain we'll see Mario in the audience for DWTS.He'll be there to support Karina.

I think the most truthful thing that Mario has ever said about this relationship was to USA TODAY right after the DWTS finals, when they asked about his and Karina's relationship he said, "We like to keep our private life private." The only weird things that have happened are when he went to Vegas the weekend of the "Day and Night" ball, the gig that Karina was in charge of and she brought JC Chasez as her date. The other weird thing are these pictures of her w/this other guy. Other than that it's been consistent between the two of them. A 5-month relationship does not a permanent relationship make particularly in LA.

I think that is is so weird that Karina lied about Mexico when she is wearing the exact same bikini in Mexico that she was wearing on DWTS when they had their getaway to the pool. Did anybody else notice that?

yeah i noticed. something funny though, is that karina didn't bring JC as her date to that thing. there's an interview with him and he doesn't even remember her name when the interviewer asked about her. then he said she just asked him to take a couple pictures with him, and he said yes. and i think karina and this other guy staged this, because after mexico she didn't know how she could deny it anymore. it worked temporarily, cuz everyone said they broke up. but obviously they never did, and just like to keep it private.

Any news
