theinsider.com - Move over Maksim Chmerkovskiy, "Dancing with the Stars" has a new hunk: Dmitry Chaplin. "Dancing with the Stars" is introducing two new professional dancers this season: blonde beauty Chelsie Hightower and former "So You Think You Can Dance" hottie Dmitry Chaplin. "The Insider" had to ask: Will Dmitry be giving Maks a run for the disco-ball trophy by taking off his shirt this season? "I don't think taking off the shirt will win the competition," he says. "I think it has to do with the Latin dances, where the shirts sometimes are open to the pants and your chest is exposed completely. We are just trying to be ballroom dancers." Dmitry is paired with singer/songwriter Jewel, and the two will be competing against Jewel's real-life husband, bull rider Ty Murray and his partner Chelsie. "This is the first time we have had a married couple on the show and there is no jealousy," he adds. "We are good friends." The one thing that Dmitry says he is happy about is that Jewel has turned out to be such a great partner. "We are more like friends than teacher and student," he says. "I am very lucky to end up with her. I don't know how celebrities act. I was getting ready for a worse scenario. We work together as a team, we talk about costumes, music -- everything pretty much. It’s a team." "Dancing with the Stars" premieres Monday, March 9 at 8 p.m. on ABC.
