  • They may not have won but IMO she was his best partner. He and Mel had fun, but they didn't steam like these two.

  • @ohsnapiam59 I agree... these two had and incredible connection. You could see it in Maks eyes as the weeks progressed. Laila was the one that got away.

  • @AlbieVO5 Oh yeah, I agree. And most telling, after that season, he took time off...remember? And never mentioned her. Personally, I always thought that her family nixed any chance of anything happening. She certainly did blossom under Max's instructions...not fully, but still...I will never forget her fiancée's face when she did that walk over Max in the second dance. If you get a chance, watch it. You can see him to the right of Laila. His face is like 'WTF?'

  • @ohsnapiam59 Actually... Maks did get to mention her in several interviews but always in reference to Laila being a "very private" person. Yeah... I think she broke off all contact because of her wedding plans and "common sense". You could see her fiancee's "anxiety" toward the end of this season. Maks was definitely getting on his nerves!!! I've seen all their videos and Laila was definitely his "sultriest partner" to this day.

  • @AlbieVO5 Agreed...I think Laila's fiancee was a little jealous of Maks ♥♥

  • @NYChica23 Ay Chica... "a little jealous"??? The brother was about to have a fit when Maks showed up at the family barbeque. Check out the scene where Laila's showing Maks how to cook the chicken. Her fiance was in the background watching them like a hawk. And... the guy next to him looked like he was telling him "Chill Curtis, it'll soon be over!" ..... LMAO

  • If they had been together, they would have made beautiful babies together!

  • A BIG THANK YOU....for still having these Maks DWTS videos....for us to enjoy ...even years later :) :) : )

  • Now she is one female athlete who has built in sex appeal and slink.....no trouble getting in touch with her sensuous side! Too bad she was so uptight with Maks most of the time.

  • they are so sexy

  • Love this dance look and Maks and Laila they look like real lovers go girl!!!~~~~

  • The look on Curtis's face...priceless!! LOL

  • So many years later and the part with Curtis is still funny

  • @KeddyG90 Good to know that I am not the only one that Laila left an indelible mark on! :)

  • I never thought I'd say this, but this is more lovely than Maks' Rumba with Brandy. I love the smile on his face. Its sensual and happy at the same time. I love his chemistry with brandy, but there was a "heaviness" with them (her talking about not having a man, her past etc..) that I think started to "drain" Maks. I think his best chemistry with Laila, Mel b. and Brandy.

  • @NicoleH73 All of the sistas

    max just looks good with flavor

  • She's so beautiful and womanly. They flow so nicely together. I read an article awhile back where Maks stated its important for him to stay close to his partners even after the show. He said with Mel B. it worked out, but with Laila it didn't, because she's very private and doesn't get too close to people. He seemed hurt. It made me view Maks in a different way. I think behind that tough exterior lies a man that is very sensitive and needs to be close to a woman.

  • She is definitely her daddy's girl. She floated like a butterfly!!

  • I don't know why but I LMAO like hell when while Maks was trying to explain the Rumba to Laila's fiance! And his faces during the rehearsals....Whooo! I needed that belly laugh.

  • work that dress girl

  • Oh jeeze! I guess this is the first time I'm hearing Laila Ali speak, because I was genuinely startled when I heard her open her mouth in this. She dwarfs Maks quite badly, lol.

  • "Imma take my hair down so I can really...get nasty with you" LMAO she is so silly! The part with curtis was funny. And curtis scared the hell outta maks at the end. Haha

  • OMG! I didn't see this episode but that was HOT!!!

  • geezuz Maksim is so hot! 

  • help maks finally win the mirror ball trophy! every monday after 8pm call 1-800-868-3406, text 'vote' to 3406, and go to abc.com to vote online. you can vote multiple times. people outside the u.s. can still vote online. 'vote up' this comment if you're supporting maks!

  • He had a crush on Laila! OMG!!!!!

  • her and mak had such chemistry. if she wasn't happily engaged, they might have made a great couple! lol

  • 0:59-1:03 is SO sensual. "Back again", you really were back again Laila and that look makes me wanna melt like a ice-cream at sunny and hot summer day. LOL:)

  • She could get a husband so mch better than Curtis!

  • @whitemenaresexy Oh please, Curtis is Awesome for her. Don't put black men down just on the basis of race. I'm a black woman and while I don't mind seeing black women in interracial relationships, I don't mind seeing us with black men either. It's all good.

  • The most sensual rumba I've ever seen on any UK or US series of dancing with the stars - wow!

  • wats da name of dat song.

  • @TheSugarzany622 The name of the song is "Put Your Records On" by Corinne Bailey Rae.

  • I would NOT be able to dance very well with Laila 'cause of permanent hard-on. lol I am sorry if it sound rude, no offense meant at all. She soooo hot.... :P

  • @ 3:39 they kissed. her hands were blocking it but you can see his head quickly turn towards hers.

  • Hmmm... I don't think that kiss she blew in 3:49 was intended for her fiancee. She looked embarrassed in 4:05.

  • cause laila is a trooper ! ;D

  • I agree with everybody else.These 2 had a chemistry that was unexplainable. Even though Maks had great chemistry with Mel B, he had something a little bit more special with Laila. There was so much sexual tension it was ridiculous. To bad she had a fiance lol

  • @sumpterj19 I absolutely agree. I honestly believe he was taken with her. I have heard him mention Laila in interviews a year or so after (he hardly mentions her) and you could tell, she was the one that got away. He has never had that much chemistry or that kind with anyone else.

  • Very, very good! She is looks smoking hot - very pretty :)

  • this rumba was so sexy

  • Look how red Max's ears are.

  • This is the most romantic Rumba till date that I've seen on DWTS. This is one video that I don't mind watching on repeat mode. I love their chemistry and I can help but wonder how it would have been if Laila n Maks had ended up together in real life too.. sigh..

  • What is with the song choices? I don't understand. That's a cute song, cute. Not sexy and passionate.

  • Very strange song choice for a Rumba. I only started watching show a few seasons ago so have only seen Maks with frustrating partners. Wow, watching this was so surprising because you can really see the chemistry...Maks really likes her, even more than Mel B. Sure hope they pair him with someone good in Season 10. Anyone else disappointed tonight that they didn't have him and Joanne do their A. Tango during the Finals Results Show?

  • I know! This season with Laila was actually the first season I started watching DWTS and she was THE ONLY partner I've seen him paired with that their chemistry was awesome. HE HATED that bitch Debbie! (and I don't blame him!) haha

  • I agree about Laila. He has never had that kind of chemistry since...he WAS really stuck on her. Mel and Max danced great together and had alot of playfulness but none of their dances (with the exception of the 1st Paso Doble) had the chemistry and sexual tension that Laila and Max had. Lots of people will disagree but that's my opinion.

  • @blkchk - well said! Can't wait for this season to hurry up and get here.

  • Ahhhh.....Maksim is such a sexpot!!

    Black pants, see through white shirt, those hips swaying...my Lord!

  • Mel is my fave Maks partner, but I will admit this Rhumba is better than Mel's--this is the sensuality the dance needs!

    I wish I could Rhumba with Maks like that.

  • I mean for a boxer this girl is extremely sexy.

  • Whew they were reeeeally close and personal. HAHAHA

  • name the song

  • put ur records on

  • 1:03 "You're back again..." LOL I nearly died...haha I love them together.

  • Comment removed

  • This dance was money.

  • I'm telling you, there is no one else that makes me want to get in shape as much as Laila Ali!

  • Love Laila! She's such a fiery, strong woman

  • We're goona get scored reeeal high lol

  • ha aha did you guys hear the end? bruno needed a shower and maks a new pair of pants. ROFL

  • "I made her sign a waver that said no Maks was hurt in the making of this dance"

    That made me laugh so much!

  • Did anyone notice the face Maks made to Curtis @ 2:25? (Tom noticed)

    Laila looks like a gorgeous amazon!

  • "ten. that's a ten." lol

  • mi amore, eres una morena tan simpatica y chula!

  • They were the hottest couple ever on DWTS. No one has touched their chemistry together.

  • It is the most viewed Female Celeb rumba in seven seasons. Laila & Maks has the most viewed Female Celeb Mambo in seven seasons.

    Laila never missed a step. She was relaxed, smiling, and always in step. Cannot say that about his other pairings. The rehearsal footage was the best.

  • She looks absolutely amazing in this dress! Not to mention that she danced flawlessly... Im not crazy about the song selection for this routine but its stil good.

  • no homo, but Laila looks like a Goddess in this dress!

  • That was one sexy dance:)

    Laila is absolutely beautiful...and well,I think we don't have to talk about Maks:P

  • I love both of them in this,it's so sweet and sexy.Maaaaan Maks is scrumptious!!!!!!

  • the part with curtis was hilarious!!! those looks he was giving! lol

  • Maks,Maks,Maks!!! Man, he is so sexy,beautiful, gorgeous and all man to me.Those hips and backside, the way he moves them, whew! I love them and him.He's all that and somemore.Laila also is pretty.

  • Maks...Maks...Maks...Damn he's hot!!!!

  • laila is gorgeous shes an awsome dancer and an awsome boxer she has wonderfull looks and defenitly has the moves they make a great couple good dancers indeed

  • laila was awesome...i thought she should have won and maks is dead sexy lol

  • LOL! Curtis!! That was a great dance!!

  • Maks is so handsome.

  • I think everyone can agree to that.. Maks is somkin' hot (:

  • Laila is gorgeous and that dress is KILLER!!!

  • Laila had the best intentions to avoid surprises but Curtis wasn't as open as she expected. Mark did the same thing this season, he brought Kristi's hubby and kids to rehearsal and Kristi's husband is cool about their rumba routine. He's very supportive of Kristi and Mark. I think it's a matter of trust between two people. Maks is surely a gentleman, if not Laila would've grinded his bones but you know, Maks is really great. He's so funny (waiver thing!) LOL!

  • she is soooo sexy i love laila ....fahim

  • Aren't they a gorgeous couple? LOVE them!

  • HAHAH the shots with Curtis and Maks were hilarious!

  • maks is hilarious, and he also gets hilarious partners as well. the fun never ends!!!

  • Has anyone ever noticed that Maks never kissed Laila?

  • yah totally she just went into his neck she didnt kiss him it was like between the cheek so it looks like she kissed him long definition lol!!!

  • he never kissed her b/c Curtis would have KILLED him. Maks isn't stupid.

  • gak2008, I have to agree with you. Curtis was not having it. I've never seen anyone look so intently at pair like Curtis did when Laila danced with Maks. It always bugged me. Even at the BBQ he was checking them out in the background. I was like LET THE WOMAN BREATH..she can be trusted. I felt Curtis was definitely jealous of Maks and how easy he and Laila got along. But for those wondering, Maks did kiss Laila a few times just go to other dance numbers they have...you'll find their moments.

  • i think it has somthin to do with the fact laila is either married or about to be married

  • I love Tom's coment, "Bruno needs a shower and Maks needs a new pair of pants."

  • that was damn hot.

  • laila needs to back up of my man! lol jk thats my girl

  • hes so hot he is so my man lolz no but i love her too

  • lol! No Maks is going to get hurt in the making of this dance. Awesome. He's hilarious.

  • This is the best rumba I've seen on DWTS.

  • that was HOT!

  • maks is so sexy!!! i wish i could dance with him! ☺•☻•♥! she is so ♣(lucky!) i also ♥ the ♫ !

  • Laila is super sexy hot....and judges are pieces of shit.....

  • Wow. Even though a lot of time has passed, this is still sexy as hell. Definitely one of my favorite dances from these two.

    Their chemistry was extraordinary and palpable, and Maks is just pure hotness.

  • Delicious! So sexy! ...and that little kiss at tne end! Such a pleasure to watch.

  • you are not a muslim you are a pork

  • she was robbed last season. she should have been at least in the final 2, rather than final 3.

  • Laila was better dan mel b. I kinda like mel b too. she's funny

  • she want better than mel but she was mazing, mel is so cute

  • Does anyone know what this song is called?

  • put your records on by corrine(sp?) bailey rae

  • Hehe. I LOVE her Fiance. He makes me laugh.

  • great job soooo sexy

  • that blue dress she had on was tough! they dod a great job!

  • I really love her rumba.

  • That was sensational. This was one of her best dances!!!

  • Why did Laila look at the camera after sshe kissed her fiance? I don't get it. From 5:58 to 6:00.

  • her boyfriend's face!!!!!!!!

  • i thought Laila was gonna be at the bet awards last sight. oh well!

  • Wrong decision by ABC -- to highlight -"the boyfriend is watching you two" joke. Samantha's drilling was intrusive and unnecessary.

    Season 3, Samantha tells Willa, "it looks like you two[Maks and Willa] are falling for each other." Just tacky and sent the wrong message.

    Perhaps in season 5, Samantha and ABC will be more tactful and professional. In fact, I hope the entire show is more tactful and professional. There is never any reason to be unkind to the pros and celebrities.

  • lol

  • i love the song and dance....Dude this is HOTTTTT!!! lol..shez fine(no homo) and hez sexii. cute couple

  • Hey People. There's a fan page for laila. go to myspace and the end of the url is : myspace/lailaalirocks

  • Maks is sooooooooooooooo hot! Damn!

  • Now I know what "making nice in the corner means" -- I did not know until this 5th view, Curtis is only two or three feet behind Maks. Check at the beginning of the dance.

  • I noticed that.

  • Does anyone know if Laila's a millionaire?

  • Go check Laila's fanpage on myspace.

  • I meant the rumba not the mambo. I just turned the sound

    down here and played "Layla" over it from Rhapsody

  • Hey, Laila has a fan page on myspace.

  • Hot rumba :) Go muscular, strong women!!

  • Watch the mambo with Eric Clapton's "Layla" from his "Unplugged" album! Very sexy and perfect.

  • you have the link?

  • People I was thinking. Laila and Maks should do a movie about dancing with the stars. At least, we'd get to see them together again..... Do I sound crazy?

  • No, your just like everyone of else, we all would like to see Maks and Laila together. They make a hot, cute, and sexy couple and a great team, so if any one disagrees and think your crazy then I must be crazy too.

  • I'm starting up a new myspace fan page for her. Maybe you could help me design it and put juicy pics and good attractive stuff.

  • I'd like that, but theres one problem I know nothing about myspace, my brother does everything for me, the only thing I can do is pick out layouts, search for people, and edit my profile, but I would still like to help if thats o:k with you.

  • OMG, Did you guys see at 6:07 when Samantha pulls Maks arms so he can stand next to her, but in stead he moves back next to Laila. Now I know Samantha was mad.

  • Gurl, it looks like you're as crazy as I am... maybe a bit crazuer... no I am definitely crazier. lol.

  • PLease tell me you're not 12 years old.

  • No I'm not 12 years old, my little cousin is 12 years old but not me, I don't know I mean I want to tell you my age but then agian youre a complete stranger, I hope you understand, but then agian you don't know my real name or how I look. I'm 15 and you?

  • I'm old. 23.

  • Are you serious? Sorry to hear you cannot appreciate Maks performances unless it is with Laila.

    Yes, he danced with Willa.

  • I'm sorry, I just can't stand seeing Maks with another woman but Laila. I won't be watching his previous dances. Wasn't he with Willa ford or sumtin?

  • I love Maks "hands off" gesture. See 00:21. Check out the free style, he does it again.  Too funny.

    Although, I love Maks/Cheryl Rumba....Maks and Laila Rumba has a natural element to it. It draws you into sensuality and flirtation of Laila and Maks. Apolo and Julianne's Rumba was called "sex on the dance floor" but quite frankly, I did not feel the credibility of Apolo/Julianne attraction.

    Maks + Laila = GROWN AND SEXY!!!!

  • We've become analysts now. lol

  • I have lost ALL respect for Carrie Ann. I thought she gave Apolo and Julianne one standing ovation [free style] but there were two. She stood, almost jumping up and down after Apolo's Waltz. A judge should not appear biased and partial. Carrie Ann, Samantha, and Len must go!

  • Carie ann is just an hypocrite.

  • Mama!

  • OMG, I did see Maks pants bulging! Thanks Huldhah, that was very helpful.

  • Don't know about that...the real clue is the ears. Watch his ears...red as a beet.

  • Do you think Laila had something to do with the fact that his ear was so red? I mean that dance is really something and them practicing, I mean I'm sure they practice once with out Curtis being around.

  • Well, dancing is intimate. A person can control what he/she does with emotion, but controlling a physical reaction is much more difficult. Just a natural reaction...and them ears sure were red, baby:)

  • Red as scarlet! The front part of Maks pants was bulging too.

  • Yeah, and I think they did something. They had to kiss or sumtin. Maks wouldn't be a dumbass and let her go like that. No way!

  • Yeah, that's true. Why though?

  • Oh Sweet Judas! I was watching every detail in this video, Maks had an erection during rehearsal. Watch: 1:30 when he was turning Laila's hips and 1:48. Watch closely people!

  • Golly, what's wrong with Laila. I don't see any physical goodies on this Curtis guy!

  • The erection begins between 1:35 nad 1:40 during the hip swingning. Pay close attention! I am Makssimized right now. I am about to drown in my own drool.

    -- Maks really looks like he's got sumtin in his pants, you know a pretty big package!

  • Stop being mean to Curtis. You're hurting Laila's feeling.

  • what's the name of the song?

  • put your records on by corinne bailey rae

  • Can we host a fan page for Laila?

  • I can't stop watching this dance!

  • Laila's a real teaser! lol. I like her.

  • Have ya'll notice the funny face Maks make when he put his hands on Laila thigh and the moves it up, kind of looks like he saw Curtis in the audience.(1:25)

  • Really? let me watch it again. lol. I think They kissed for real during rehearsal. Not when Curtis was there!

  • (2:25)I apologise for the wrong time

  • I saw Maks say sumtin to someone, he's apollogizing you said? I don't get it.

  • yeah, he looked somewhere :D LOL, that dance was the hottest ever.

  • She's so funny! lol

  • daamn..daz a sexii dance..they make a cut3 coupl3 2..it sucked that they aint win.

  • Yep. I kinda of know whay she ddin't win. She's got so much potential. I wanted to see more of her. SHe could way more, but she was scared. That's was she got voted off. Joey was doing his thing, stretching off the air, Apolo was doing the best he could, and did it. Man, I wish oh I wish Laila could've won ! She' very really good! I miss her. I don't know what I'm gonna do with my monday nights.

  • That dance is still just HOT HOT HOT!

  • TOMORROW IS APOLO's 25th BIRTHDAY!!! APOLIANNE FOR THE WIN!!!

  • How in the hell are you going to say Apolianne for the win when your watching a Maks and Laila dance, and s sexy one at that. I know after watching this vdeo you wished you never wrote that comment.

    Yip pa de do, it was A whoever brthday, that don't have nothing to do with this dance, were you on something when you wrote this comment, god I hope so, causse that would explain it.

  • nope...just spreading the word...and hey look at that...he won!...and i watched the video b4 i posted the comment sweetie so i do not wish to never have written it

  • What are you talking about?

  • wut do u mean wut am i talking about??
